District Lodge Lake Michigan No. 8

District 8 is considered one of the largest districts in the Vasa Order and has 23 lodges in the four states surrounding Lake Michigan - Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

It was in January of 1908 when the first local lodge was organized. Within four weeks, six other lodges were organized. The district held it's first meeting on March 31, 1908 and chose "DISTRICT LODGE ILLINOIS NO. 8".

Over the 90 plus years as a district, is has seen growth and change - including our name. In 1994, the district at it's annual meeting elected to change the name to "DISTRICT LODGE LAKE MICHIGAN NO. 8".

In addition to the 23 adult lodges, it has 5 children's clubs scattered in Illinois, Indians and Wisconsin.
