Nobles of Ellsworth Lodge No. 146 work tirelessly to support the communities of Ellsworth County. The lodge this year presented $1,000 to four different fire departments. These fire departments are located in Holyrood, Wilson, Ellsworth, and Kanopolis. The checks were presented by Casey Finn, Henry Burmeister, Kurt Krupp, and Kendall Rathbun. The four are shown in the above photo with Ellsworth Volunteer Fire Department Chief Bob Kepka. These funds came from Ellsworth Lodge No. 146 as well as the Kansas Masonic Foundation.
