| The Widow's Sons are an independent group of Internationally based Mastermasons who ride motorcycles and have organized to perform the laudable undertaking of aiding and assisting the Widows of Mastermasons, to promote Freemasonry
in the world of motorcycling, to promote motorcycling in the World of Freemasonry with our masonic bretheren and their families, and to support the charities of the Widows Sons International Motorcycle Riders Assoc.

 |
| The Widows Sons Masonic Motorcycle Riders Association-Southern Jurisdiction and it's chartered chapters are affiliates of the Widows Sons Masonic Motorcycle Riders Assoc., Int'l. | |
| We are a non-brand specific riding association. No matter what brand of motorcycle you ride with a minimum of 500cc, to ensure you can keep up on highway rides, you are welcome as a member. (Note: The 500cc limit may be waived for classic or antique motorcycles, and some models of sport bikes.) | |
| We do not intend to speak for or represent any Masonic body. We simply want to share our passion for riding with all other Masons who ride, and have some fun while we do it. | |
| We are not a 1% club. We are a social riding association, which happens to have set one of its membership requirements to include being a Master Mason in good standing. Our name comes from certain aspects of the Masonic fraternity, it is not intended to instill fear or appear threatening in any way. | |
| We are not territorial and do not condone illegal activities by our members. All we ask is that our members act in a way that will reflect well on our club, our Fraternity, and motorcycling in general. | |
| We have an association patch worn by our active members in the United States, the words Widows Sons, and the name of our local Chapter. We also wear a Square & Compass patch (as we are entitled to do as Masons) to denote our personal fraternal affiliation. This is not a part of our 'colors'. This simply a common custom among members of our Fraternity to wear this symbol. Our International members wear a slightly different patch depending on their local customs, but all use the words 'Widows Sons' and proudly display the Square & Compass. | |
| We strive to be friends and on good terms with all other clubs, associations, and riders we share the road with. | |
| We realize that wearing "colors" is a serious matter and wear them appropriately. We understand there are clubs that have been around for many years and we totally respect that! We realize we are able to enjoy many of our riding freedoms thanks to the many clubs, associations, and riders that have ridden in the wind before us. Our patches allows other riders to know who we are and where we are from. WE WEAR THE NAME OF OUR CHAPTER SIMPLY TO IDENTIFY WHERE WE ARE FROM, NOT TO CLAIM ANY TERRITORY. We ask all our members to wear their patch proudly and to always show respect for all other clubs, associations and riders. We do not take sides or involve ourselves when it comes to other club or association politics. WE DO NOT CLAIM TURF OR TERRITORY. We come from all walks of life, including law enforcement and veterans of the Armed Forces. |
