Logen Karlstad Nr 632 stiftades den 2 maj 1954 genom att Elsa Fleetwood, som \u00e4r ett i vasakretsar mycket k\u00e4nt och respekterat namn, och Sigurd Gustavson, sedermera grundare av Emigrantregistret, kom \u00f6verens om detta.<\/p>\n
I logens f\u00f6rsta styrelse ingick m\u00e5nga k\u00e4nda karlstadsprofiler, dock bara m\u00e4n. Det dr\u00f6jde \u00e4nda till 1989 innan logen valde en kvinna som ordf\u00f6rande. Numera \u00e4r kvinnor i majoritet i styrelsen, vilket ocks\u00e5 speglar den demografiska f\u00f6rdelningen i logen. Ca 2\/3 av logens medlemmar \u00e4r kvinnor.<\/p>\n
Logens medlemstal \u00f6kade snabbt och var som h\u00f6gst \u00e5r 1965 med 250 ordenssyskon. Under \u00e5ren som g\u00e5tt har medlemsantalet tyv\u00e4rr sjunkit. De senaste \u00e5ren har antalet pendlat mellan 80-90 medlemmar. I skrivande stund best\u00e5r logen av 88 medlemmar.<\/p>\n
Under tiden fram till 80-talets mitt var aktiviteten h\u00f6g men den har, s\u00e4kert p\u00e5 grund av \u00e5ldersf\u00f6rdelningen, sjunkit en aning. Ambitionen \u00e4r dock att \u00f6ka aktiviteten genom att p\u00e5 olika s\u00e4tt engagera och intressera fler personer, med intresse f\u00f6r svensk-amerikansk v\u00e4nskap och kultur, att bli medlemmar i Vasa Orden av Amerika.<\/p>\n
Logen har 6 logem\u00f6ten per \u00e5r, varav 4 med uppst\u00e4lld loge. Dessutom brukar vi arrangera en utflykt varje v\u00e5r\/sommar.<\/p>\n
Logens medlemmar brukar erbjudas m\u00f6jlighet att f\u00f6r nedsatta priser g\u00e5 p\u00e5 teater, b\u00e5de p\u00e5 Karlstads Musikteaters operaf\u00f6rest\u00e4llning och p\u00e5 S\u00e4ffleteaterns operett- eller musikupps\u00e4ttningar.<\/p>\n
Logen har sina m\u00f6ten p\u00e5 Sverige Amerika Centret, som i sin tur ligger i landsh\u00f6vdingens residens i Karlstad<\/p>\n
