Olympia
South Elementary School in Atlanta recently
received a cash donation from the Mason Grand
Lodge of the State of Illinois. The check
represented the matching funds to go along with
a donation made in November by the Atlanta
Masonic Lodge #165 A. F. & A.M. The funds will be
used for playground equipment for the school as
well as writing and word study curriculum
accessories and hardback books for the school
library. The recent donation from the Grand
Lodge was presented to Principal Stacy Rogers by
local Masonic Lodge Secretary William Horn
(left) and Worshipful Mason Kenneth Cook.
