Centennial Celebration

This year Bend Lodge is celebrating its 100th anniversary. On the Sunday following Blue Lodge Training, we hung a banner on the side of the Lodge announcing the event. The Bend Bulletin wrote an article about the event - http://www.bendbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090414/NEWS0107/904140316 and OPB ran a report - http://news.opb.org/article/4745-bends-freemasons-talk-about-100-years-secrets/


On Tuesday, April 28th, several members of the Lodge attended a meeting of the Deschutes County Supervisors, where a proclamation was made.
On May 16th, we'll be having a Centennial Celebration. We'll kick things off with breakfast, followed by a Masonic Treasure Hunt. After lunch, the Grand Lodge officers will rededicate our cornerstone.
