The Corner Stone has been Set!





The ceremony for laying the corner for the New University of Minnesota Amplatz Children's Hospital took place in October of 2010 with MWB Thomas McCarthy leading the ceremony as the Grand master of MN Masons at the time. On February 25, 2011 a group of Grand lodge Officers were invited to see the new hospital and the plaque before the Grand Opening to the public and hospital employees.

The pictures show the hospital from a distance leading up to the front door where they will be able to see the plaque as they enter the hospital.

A big Thank You to Brother Steve Johnson and Jennifer Soderholm for arranging the tour for Grand Lodge of MN Masons representatives to see the new University of Minnesota Amplatz Children's Hospital. It was fabulous and the state of the art. It is really geared to treating the children and making them comfortable as can be on their extended stay.
