During this last year the members of Shelbina Masonic Lodge #228 took on the project of painting 146 Fire Hydrants for the City of Shelbina for $5 each along with donations from members they were able to collect $1145 which in turn was matched by the Creating A Partnership Program from the Masonic Home of Missouri $2 to $1 totaling $3,435.00, which is allowing Shelbina Masonic Lodge to present a total of $1,717.50 to both South and North Shelby schools to apply towards the school lunches. Shelbina Masonic Lodge presented North Shelby with a check Friday, September 3 before the Raiders’ football game.
