A dinner was held at the Masonic Lodge Hall to commemorate the scholarships as the recipients talked about what classes they will be taking and their plans for the future.

2023 was the first year the Masonic Lodge was able to give out two scholarships. The future plan is to include a scholarship for trade schools as well.
