What does Harmony Lodge do in our local community?
• We are responsible for maintaining several miles of “Road Clean-up”. Each year our members help beautify the area by collecting and removing trash and debris from area roadsides.
• We welcome the opportunity to work with other organizations to help them meet their goals. For decades, Harmony Lodge members have participated in “Ring
ing the Bell” during the holidays on behalf of the Salvation Army.
• We actively participate in Community Events and Celebrations. Throughout the year we enjoy being involved with the Communities activities. In many ways, their events become our events. From Parades to Pumpkins we have fun while supporting our community.
• We own and maintain our building and grounds. Being only a few blocks from Main Street, we are surrounded by private residences, the Community Park and a few businesses. We want to be good neighbors so it’s important that our facility is in keeping with the clean and safe high standards that are set in the neighborhood.
• We allow other organizations and private groups to utilize our facility. Due to our location, it’s common for the public to use our parking lot while attending other events – and that’s fine with us! We also have a large interior space with an adjacent kitchen that has been used for functions such as receptions, banquets, training studio and has also served as a certified election voting location.
• We hold fundraising events that also benefit various local organizations and individuals. A percentage of our operating funds is for Masonic related organizations as a discretionary distribution. In addition, it’s not unusual for us to make it known to our contributors that sometimes a portion of the funds we collect are for the benefit of another organization or an individual. Local first responders, youth organizations, and the Zelienople Community Park are among past recipients We realize that we are all in this together.
