Cedar Lodge No. 60 Free and Accepted Masons of Michigan celebrated the Centennial Cornerstone Rededication for their Clarkston Masonic Temple at 1 E. Washington, Aug. 13.
The lodge members hosted an outdoor ceremony on Washington Street as well as a luncheon for guests and the public.
The lodge received its charter on Jan. 13, 1854, and first met above N.B. Smith’s general store in the same location. The current temple was built in 1916.
