The Re-Dedication


The Re-Dedication of Mt. Olive Lodge #439 took place August 27th, 2000 beginning at 12:30 pm. There were 200 people in attendance at this event, many of which are citizens in the community. The Historical importance of the Renovation Project to the community was confirmed by the number of citizens who attended. We thank all who came and braved the 102 degree heat. The Grand Master held the ceremony out side in order for the multitude to see it and the newscrews to record it. We thank the Grand Master and the Grand Lodge Officers for their excellent presentation and special thanks to WB Jerry Rindom who took most of the photos you see below.
