Elks could be in new lodge next month

The new Elk's Lodge is nearing completion and could open by Thanksgiving.

The temporary Elk's Lodge buildings were removed last week in anticipation of the reopening of the newly rebuilt Elk's Lodge.

The original lodge was destroyed in a fire two years ago. This spring construction began on the new lodge building, with C2 Construction as the prime contractor.

By the end of this month Elk's officials expect to begin setting up for a reopening some time around Thanksgiving.
