2007 – 2008 Calendar set

 

Our 2007-2008 Degrees

By Steve Cronkhite, Venerable Master

 

Fine01

John Stafford, 32°, Commander of Kadosh, and Ron Fine, 32°KCCH, Wise Master, contemplate the huge commitment they just made agreeing to put on all of the degrees.

 

At our annual planning session we decided to Confer, Communicate, or Study every degree of the Scottish Rite over the next two years.

 

Chuck Anway, 32°KCCH and Steve Cronkhite, 32°KCCH, not shown, are also busy working on the programs to meet our schedule of degree presentations.

 

This year will be concentrated on the degrees of the Lodge of Perfection, the 4° through the 14°.

 

This change in our annual programming is an attempt to focus more on the educational side of the Scottish Rite.  If you would like to help presenting some of the degrees contact the Secretary., Paul Ingram, 33° or the Venerable Master, Steve Cronkhite.

The Consistory

By Ron Fine, Master of Kadosh of the Consistory

 

First off my Brothers & Ladies, I want to Thank you for attending the Consistory dinner. We had a great turn out.

A big THANK YOU to the following Brothers for their help, Steve Cronkhite, Chuck Anway, Wayne Deming & Jim Moen.

 

One thing I've learned over the years, is to get good help when putting on a function.  Please don't forget that on Wednesday August 1, 2007 will be our first meeting back after the summer.  Lodge will open on the 32 degree where I hope we will be reading lots of petition.  We need to bring in 1 new candidate per person. 

 

Congratulations to our New 32 degree Scottish Rite Mason's Carey James, Tim Springstead, Russ Weston. Remember Brothers you are the ones for our future.

 

Brother Randy Carroll, Thank you so much for being the guest speaker and a good friend for all these years.  Have a safe and Happy summer.  Here's a little Masonic Trivia"The letters of the English word GOD are the first three letters of Hebrew words for beauty, strength, and wisdom.
