Freemasons from New Richmond Lodge (No. 195) celebrated their 150th Anniversary on October 20th, at the Ready Randy Event Center in New Richmond. Over 80 Lodge Brothers from all around the area were in attendance with many community members also attendting.
The officers and Brothers of New Richmond celebrated this historic milestone the same way they have over the last 150 years by giving back to their community. The City of New Richmond received a check from the Lodge in the amount of $10,000 toward the construction of a new community library. An Emergency Jump Bag was presented to the Wisconsin State Patrol. Pictured at the top the story, a Jump Bag is presented to Wisconsin State Patrol.
