Thanks to the generosity of the Detroit Salt Company, and the organizing efforts of Lodge No. 7 member Malcolm "Mac" McAdam, this group was given the rare opportunity to tour the mine of the Detroit Salt Company on Saturday, June 26, 2010.  The tour also served as a fund-raiser for the ISMA Grand Lodge Scholarship Fund.  With each of the 17 participants donating $100, a total of $1700 was raised for the fund.   After the tour, the group headed over to the J.W. Westcott Company for lunch.  

Thanks to all who participated in this event!
