Get your motor runnin'
Head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Born to be Wild
W
hat's more fun
than a night at
the track, with free food,
good friends and the
chance to ride in some
of the hottest cars on the
circuit?
Nothing! at's what.
e North Carolina Masonic
Foundation in May hosted a
night at the GALOT Motors-
ports Park in Johnston County
with food, fun and free rides
sponsored by GALOT owner
Brother Earl Wells.
About 60 brothers, wives,
friends and families and Grand
Master Mack Sigmon met at
the park in Benson and had the
run of the place, dining on good
food provided by Wells and his
staff and some tasty ice cream.
e big attraction: a ride in
one of two racecars that took
passengers from zero to more
than 100 in a matter of seconds.
NCMF twice a year hosts
special events for benefactors of
our Masonic charities and those
who are interested in making
significant gifts to the founda-
tion, which raises money and
oversees investments to make
sure our two charitable homes
are safe and financially sound,
provide special scholarships for
sons and daughters of Masons,
and maintain funds that help
preserve historic Masonic
lodges in North Carolina.
In the past few years, the
NCMF has restructured and
revamped its work to help raise
awareness and support for all of
Masonry, especially the Masonic
Home for Children at Oxford
and WhiteStone: A Masonic
and Eastern Star Community
in Greensboro. More and more
brothers are joining the effort
to keep the foundation and
our charities strong and all are
welcome to join the fun! For more
