The Lodge had received their Charter in 1969 and continued to operate until the first of the year, holding it's last New Year's Eve dance on December 31st, 2008. After having upwards of two hundred members in the past, membership had dwindled down to the low forties. The lack of enthusiasm by the general membership forced President Lévis
