Every Jew in the Grays Harbor district is now enrolled in the B’nai B’rith as the result of a membership drive climaxed by initiation of all members by Amunah Lodge. The record is unparalleled in Northwest B’nai B’rith history.
The newly initiated group was named the “P. Allen Rickles Class” in honor of the Seattle B’nai B’rith leader, who is known as “the father of Northwest B’nai B’rith work.”
Amunah Lodge will celebrate the fourth anniversary of its founding next Sunday at Olympia.
