To assist in rebuilding Pythian Lodge 75

Established in 1864 by Justus H. Rathbone after the Civil War to strengthen the country in brother hood. Adopted and signed by Abraham Lincoln and charted be the United states congress as the first charitable organization in the United States. Pythian park lodge 75 was started in the 1940s, and moved to our current location. The lodge house was built in 1961.

At approximately 6:30am on May 27th, lightning struck the lodge and it was a total loss. We also lost historical artifacts, archives and the original charter that was signed by Abraham Lincoln in the fire.

We are going to rebuild and any help from the community would be greatly appreciated. We are a 50(1)(c)(3) nonprofit organization. A Gofundme page has been set up.
