I.O.O.F. Mineola-Pacific Lodge #125: lodge building

A visit to Wawayanda and a Parade celebrating 100 years!

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "verdana" , "geneva" , sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Brothers from Mineola-Pacific Lodge #125  & Rockville Centre Lodge #279 Visited Wawayanda Lodge #34 in Warwick, New York. We did this before, but this year was the 150th anniversary of the lodge and we all marched in a parade through the town of Warwick. True brotherhood was on display. No those are not cigars, but kazoos! <b>Also a huge THANK YOU to acting District Grand Secretary Tom Buchanan</b>, who hosted a great party for all the brothers at his lovely home after the parade.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: "verdana" , "geneva" , sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"> </span></b><br />
