Our History
|
The history of the Shriners in Billings stretches back almost 100 years to 1921, when permission was granted to found a Shrine Temple. A Billings temple was first discussed as a acquiring land and overseeing construction of the barn and clubhouse, the horses of the Black Horse Patrol acquired their own stables in the 1940s. In 1950, the Al Bedoo Temple itself was built. Begun simply as a place to meet and to store Al Bedoo’s equipment, plans quickly expanded to encompass a vision of a multi-purpose hall. What eventually rose was a building with 13,000 square feet of exhibition space, a 2,400 square foot stage, parking space for 550 plus cars, and room and facilities enough to host sporting events, concerts, and large banquets. In 2022 We made our Black Horse Patrol Clubhouse into our Al Bedoo Shrine Temple.
