Supporting Madeira Beach Fire Dept.
Gulf Beach Masonic Lodge, located at 14020 Marguerite Dr., Madeira Beach, recently donated $150.00 to Madeira Beach Fire Department for their participation in the American Lung Association’s Fight For Air Climb – Tampa. The Madeira Beach Fire Fighters will compete with other local and state fire departments as they climb the 42 story Bank of America Plaza Building in Tampa, while in full firefighting gear. The purpose of the event is to raise funds for the American Lung Association in their efforts to save lives by fighting for healthy lungs and healthy air.
