Lodge Partners With Bandits Baseball: Our lodge is proud to sponsor the Bandits Baseball Team. The Bandits compete in the Pony and Colt Divisions of the Johnstown Recreational League and play at Roxbury Park in Johnstown.
Along with playing baseball, the team also participates in community service projects. We look forward to cheering on these young men all season long, as they look to have an excellent season on and off the diamond. For more information on the Bandits, click here.
