St John’s Lodge Donates to Whitewater and Palmyra Food Pantries

Editor’s Note: This information was provided by Terry Boydston.

St. Johns Lodge #57 Whitewater-Palmyra had its annual “Stick it to Bruce” canned goods drive in December. Begun several years ago by Br. Bruce Eshelman, the food drive challenges members of St. Johns to donate funds to purchase canned goods for the food pantries in Whitewater and Palmyra. Bruce matches the donations until he reaches a point of “crying uncle.” This year the lodge members raised a total of $2100. Due to supply chain issues, it was decided to donate money to the pantries.
