What a Celebration
Congratulations to the members of
Lodge 54, West on a very successful
lOOth anniversary celebration. The
event was held on Saturday,

West. The halí looked absolutely
beautiful—decorated from one end
to the other. I know the members
worked hard planning this perfect
day—and all of the time and effort
was evident. Thanks for your devo-
tion and for recognizing Lodge 54 in
such a big way.
New Year’s Eve
If you are looking for something
