Cary-Grove Masonic Lodge is pleased to announce that their sponsored team, Elgin Academy, took first place in the Illinois Masonic Bowl.

The Illinois Masonic Academic Bowl began in 1983 and is a quiz-based competition between Illinois high school scholastic bowl teams that tests the players on a wide variety of academic subjects taught in Illinois high schools.

This annual tournament sponsored by the Masons of Illinois is coordinated through the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Illinois.

The goal is to provide positive recognition for academic excellence.

The competition began with more than 330 schools statewide at the sectional level and culminated with the finals in Bloomington.

Cary-Grove Masonic Lodge #1157 later hosted the winners, families and friends to a pizza dinner celebration at their lodge in Cary.
