Pictured above are the Tygart Valley Scottish Rite Masons, who held their annual family picnic on Sunday, Aug. 11, at the Elkins City Park. The Tygart Valley Scottish Rite Masons are a non-profit organization that conduct charitable benefits throughout our area. One such benefactor is The West Virginia Children’s Home, when the Scottish Rite Masons hold their annual pancake breakfast at Applebee’s each year.
