The Scottish Rite Masons of Denver are organizing
on behalf of all Colorado Masons to place wreaths at the grave markers at
Fort Logan National Cemetery. Masons
have a special connection to Fort Logan. Our Colorado Senator Henry Moore
Teller was the first Sovereign Grand Inspector General of the Scottish Rite
Masons of Colorado. Sen. Teller introduced a bill in Congress authorizing
construction of Fort Logan, and it was signed in February 1887. A little over
three acres was set aside in 1889 for a post cemetery. https://www.cem.va.gov/cems/nchp/ftlogan.asp.
This is a great event to bring your kids, spouse, or friends to. All are
welcome to help us honor our fallen veterans and give thanks to our great Nation.
You can follow the link above to register as a volunteer or make a donation to
buy a wreath.
