Help us help our troops. We will be collecting goods to be sent to our brave men and women serving the Nation in Iraq and Afghanistan. Last year we collected nearly 4000 items! Almost every one knows a soldier or a soldiers family. Help us by donating an item or two to let them know that we appreciate their service to our country.

We are here for you, the Craft. Let's work together and see if we can leave this better than we found it.

    On July 26th we will be celebrating 150 years since the first stated communication of Paris lodge. There is a big day planned and we are in hopes of seeing you at lodge. The entire day is open to the public and please bring family and friends. We are getting huge support from throughout the district and from grand lodge.

     At 9:00am we will be holding a C.H.I.P.S. program . During this same period WOXO radio will be doing a live broadcast plus advanced advertising. At 11:00am there is going to be a parade on Main St, and the more masons in it the better. At about 11:30am we will be hosting an open to the public cookout. There is going to be a 30x60 tent with tables and chairs, so regardless of the weather everyone can enjoy the food and time of fellowship. We owe a huge thanks to Hannaford and Polly’s variety for their generous donations.
