Virginia’s 19th Grand Assembly
Virginia’s 19th Grand Assembly
June 23rd-25th
About two weeks ago, we had our 19th Grand Assembly in Virginia! We had our traditional opening session with the Cavalcade of Flags, a ritualistic opening, and the announcement of the Rose Lecture competition winner, who was Kathy. After opening session, Nicole planned a talent show with many different acts such as dancing, singing, and musical instruments. On day two, there was a Devotional and Memorial service before morning session. During morning session, we had our inititation and rose lecture, along with remarks and announcements. Lunch came after morning session, and then afternoon session! In the afternoon session, Cavalcade performed again, there were more remarks and announcements, our Grand Worthy Advisor for the 2012-2013 term was announced, and then lastly a ritualistic closing. That evening was the Grand Banquet. Competition winners were announced, along with the Grand Officers and Grand Representatives for the upcoming year. After the banquet, we all went to the pool for a pool party with our rainbow sisters. On Monday, our last day at Grand Assembly, the Grand Officers and Grand Representatives were installed, and then it was time to head home. We had a great weekend with our rainbow family, and can’t wait until next year!
