Veterans news: We are donating monies for the 5-117th FRG(Family Readiness Group) to help defray the cost of a combined baby shower for 5 expectant mothers. Lodge #1896 has been named co-conspiritors in this blessed event since our contribution in December 05 made it possible for the troops to get home for the Holiday. WOW what a Christmas present!!!
