Masons in the Hastings Community
Dakota Lodge is grateful for the opportunity to be involved in the following activities in Hastings.
| Hastings High School Scholarship |
| Each year, applications are accepted from graduating high school students to receive a scholarship for post education. The scholarship is awarded at the high school spring program. |
| |
| Hastings Rivertown Days |
| Rivertown Days are an exciting event with a parade in July, sponsored by the Hastings chamber of commerce. The Masons have provided concessions sales every year since it started. |
| |
| Hastings Family Services Food Shelf |
| In December we have a special holiday visitor named Santa. We invite children to come to speak to Santa and receive a picture for an nominal fee. Proceeds go to the Hastings food shelf. |
| |
| Adopt a Park and Adopt a River |
| Partnered with Kennedy 4th grade elementary class, and a Boy Scouts troop, Masons regularly clean up the park grounds and a section of the banks of the vermillion river. |
| |
| Pancake Breakfasts |
| Several Sunday mornings during the year the Masons have the largest, most delicious pancake and french toast with sausage breakfast in Hastings. And we are all very proud of it! |

| Gun and Bow Safety Courses | |
