The Duck Race is back!! Thanks to great community support, we're able to add a prize for Last Duck to this year's line up. In six weeks, we'll be at Houtzdale Days selling ducks. On August 2 at 10:30, we go live with the Duck Race.

Nestled in 583 acres of Appalachian Mountains along the Juniata River, the PA Lions Beacon Lodge Camp has been a place of belonging for 75 years. The Circle of Honor Veterans Memorial Walkway is the next chapter, a permanent gathering space built for the veterans who already call this place home.

We always wanted to create a sacred space for our veterans to come, remember, and honor both their service and the service of others. In this vein, we're building something permanent at Beacon Lodge Camp. The Circle of Honor is a 42-foot circular Veterans Memorial Walkway, laid in engraved brick, surrounding a sacred fire space, right at the heart of camp, where veterans already gather.

It's not just a monument. It's a place to return to.
