On Saturday November 4th 2000, A.L. 6000, the 7th NE District Grand Lodge Officers installed the elected officers of Wilmette Park Lodge #931. This was the 90th installation since the beginning of Wilmette Lodge #931. We had a wonderful turnout as many visiting brethren, families and friends observed the formal occasion. Pomp and circumstance was in order as the proud officers took their elected seats in the centuries old ceremony.
After the ceremony, everyone retired to the social hall for delicious desserts brought by the wives of the elected brethren. Conversations, stories and fellowship flowed through the room.
The brethren of Wilmette Park would like to again thank the Installing Officers, and all of our visitors who made our event a most memorable one!!
