Read about the history of Tenino at http://bit.ly/TeninoHistory We are working on developing a detailed history of Tenino Lodge and we would appreciate  input from anyone who can shine light thereon. One of our brothers came up with the following extract from the Centralia Chronicle which shows when the current building was erected (and it is obvious the building is this old when you get the bills for maintaining it as a historic site), so here from 90 years ago: Ground was broken for Tenino's Masonic Temple in 1921 Masonic ground-breaking April 21, 1921 - (From the Centralia Chronicle) Ground has been broken for the new Masonic Temple at Tenino. S.W. Fenton is chairman of the building committee. The temple will be located on the site of the former structure which was destroyed in the fire in November of 1917. It will be constructed of Tenino sandstone.
