Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Frederick Allen Elks Lodge No. 609 and the Mary A. Carter Temple No. 362 of Saratoga Springs

This is a ceremonial resolution (not a law) commemorating the 100th anniversary of two Saratoga Springs organizations: the Frederick Allen Elks Lodge No. 609 (chartered August 5, 1925) and its women's auxiliary, the Mary A. Carter Temple No. 362 (chartered September 17, 1925). It recognizes their century-long role as cultural, social, and philanthropic centers for Saratoga's African American community, including their founding by prominent local residents. The resolution formally honors their legacy and directs copies to be sent to both organizations. It has no binding effect or policy changes beyond symbolic recognition.
