  Sponsored by Polo Fellowcraft Club of Potunk Lodge 1071 F&AM as a Memorial to our Brother Thomas Sinnickson. The “TSM” Golf Outing assists our Lodge in supporting the Thomas Sinnickson Memorial Scholarship Fund and other charitable works of the Lodge. With the cooperation and dedication of the Sinnickson Family the “Thomas Sinnickson Memorial Scholarship Fund” has presented deserving local Students with Scholarships to help defray the cost of further education. Love of Man, Community support and Family values have always been the tenants of Freemasonry.

Our lodge also supports the East End Hospice, Boy Scouts of America, Parent Teachers Organizations, Drug Free School Zones, and numerous other community organizations, and events.
