Benton County Sheriff
Benton Masonic Lodge No. 277 visits the Benton County Sheriff’s Office

The Sheriff’s Office in Benton County shared their appreciation and a heartfelt thanks to Benton Masonic Lodge No. 277 on their Facebook page this past Friday for the delicious lunch of lasagna, meatballs, and breadsticks delivered to their office by members of the Lodge.

Each year Benton Lodge hosts a Law Enforcement appreciation dinner, however, due to the current events with COVID-19, they were unable to host the dinner this year. None the less, the Sheriff’s Office noted, they were gracious enough to bring lunch to the office in continuing to show their appreciation and support for Law Enforcement.

Lodge Improvements

Have you noticed some changes in appearance of the parking lot and yard. Brother Steve Zetz has set his plan to work and we have begun the task of adding desertscape, curbingĀ  sod and gravel. You will notice in some of the pictures a squiggly white line. That is where the curbing is hoped to go and the curbing will be straighter than the lines I tried to draw.
