WoodmenLife chapters had another busy month! Our members showed their ongoing commitment to family, community, and country — and they had some fun at the same time.

Did your chapter do a really cool project? We want to hear about it! Upload your photo and tell us all about the project at WoodmenLife.org/Photos. You could see your photo featured here!

Member Linda Massey of Chapter 624 in Newton, MS, checks the flag disposal bin at the Newton County Courthouse in Decatur, MS. The chapter collects old and damaged American flags for an honorable retirement.
