Freemasons from Lake and Lincoln Lodges donated a combined seven “Emergency Jump Bags” to the Wisconsin State Patrol during a dinner ceremony prior to Lake Lodge’s stated meeting on February 13, adding to the Grand Master’s “Acts of Kindness” appeal. Each bag contains a Fire Suppression Tool and an AED defibrillator, both critically-important life saving tools that can be carried in the trunk of a first responder squad car.
