Preston Burner, PM, MPS, MBBFMN CONCORD LODGE #307 VIENNA, VA.
Through the 1980's and 90's Preston was a pioneer in the Masonic computer
age. He collected large amounts of computerized Masonic information and through
the Hiram's Oasis BBS he ran from the basement of his home in Vienna, VA made it
available to thousands across the country. The Hiram's Oasis BBS made it
possible for Masonic files, pictures, information and ideas to be easily shared
and exchanged.
Preston shared his computer knowledge and helped educate fellow Nobles at the
monthly computer club meetings he held at the Kena Temple for over eight years.
The Kena Computer Club was founded by Preston Burner in 1987 he was club
president from 1987 to1995 (8 years)
