Afternoon Grand Assembly Day 7/18/2020

The afternoon session for Grand Assembly Day started out rushed.  We had very little time for lunch and I ended up going to Subway at a nearby shopping center to get something since there could be no food at the lodge.  I only ate part of my lunch before we had to leave since the grand officers needed to be back at the lodge for practice.  I made it, but I think I was 2 minutes late.  I was just glad that I was not the last one to get back from lunch.  The afternoon session had the Book of Memories and the installation for the 2020 – 2021 grand year. 

Thankfully, there was a break between the Book of Memories and the installation.  I was able to change and get everything ready for the mascot presentation.  However, the surprise was on me because I found out that just as I was about to walk into the installation ceremony, I was told that I had to present the mascot to the new GWA myself.  It made for an interesting afternoon.  When everything was done, I was definitely happy that all went well and that I could stop by Sonic on the way home for something else to eat and not be rushed.  Congratulations to all the 2019 – 2020 grand officers for a great year and to all the 2020 – 2021 grand officers for your new appointments!
