This lodge is one of seven that comprises the 23rd district of active Freemasons. Freemasonry is one of the world's oldest fraternal societies made up of men who pursue a way of life that complements their religious beliefs, family values and community affiliations. They seek a better way of life and treat all men as equal regardless of race, religion or social standing. Charitable works such as Toys for Tots programs are a key focus of the lodge.
