The cost is still $15 per Lodge member and $10 per family member with children under 16 free (flyer attached). Please mail your checks with the names of those in your party attending to SI Lodge #120, 179 Tanglewood Drive, SI, NY, 10308. This is always a great day with our members and their families.

On behalf of the SI Lodge #120 Executive Board and myself, I want to wish everyone and your families a safe and enjoyable Summer.

Fraternally,
