The Ashcroft Lodge #263 Royal Purple held a luncheon on Oct. 15 in honour of Lady Flo Berry, who received her 50 Year service pin.

Also receiving service pins were Ladies Jackie Doust, Irene Trueman and Helen Stuart.

Ladies from Ashcroft, Lillooet, Merritt and North Kamloops attended.

Although there are only eight members in the Ashcroft Lodge, they represent 247 years of service.

The Lodge appreciates all of the bingo players who support the Royal Purple bingos. The money raised enables the Lodge to donate to charities, bursaries and local emergencies.
