This is some big news! Did you know that Mom J has a son that’s not Ike?! He is a very important person in helping the Supreme Inspector. He fixes her computer and helps her plan. He even set up the original state website! Stay tuned for more mystery siblings.

My mom had a business trip to Nevada, and she let me tag along for the ride. While we were there, I went to see our Rainbow Sisters in Las Vegas, Nevada. They were so sweet and really welcoming. I got to participate in their meeting, and they gave me the opportunity to be Chaplain. Instead of calling the adults Mom or Dad, they call them Mr. or Ms. The Worthy Advisor of their Assembly just became Grand Worthy Advisor of Nevada. It was really great meeting them all, and I know that they are now a part of my Rainbow family.

On July 18th, 2021, Manassas Assembly held their Installation of Officers at 2 pm. Prior to the regular Installation service, there was an uncrowning ceremony for the outgoing Worthy Advisor, Sami, which was an interesting and different addition to the regular Installation program. Eliza was installed as Worthy Advisor, and their term theme is “Survivor”. As soon as I saw the flyer for the Installation, I knew it was going to be great because of how unique the theme is, and because I am a huge fan of the show. Eliza’s mascot is the octopus, which she named Phillip. Following the Installation, there were refreshments and a field day. Overall, it was a beautiful Installation, and I am happy that I was able to visit a sister assembly!

On July 17th, 2021, Quantico-Freedom Assembly held our Installation of Officers for the new term. We arrived at noon to practice and to clean and organize the lodge before our guests arrived. The Installation started at 4 pm, and I had the honor of being asked to serve as Installing Officer. We decorated the assembly room so that each station represented a different element, and the result was beautiful. Akshita was installed as Worthy Advisor. Our Assembly theme for this term is “Imagine, Innovate, Include” and Akshita’s mascots are the peacock and the flying sky bison, which she named Andromeda and Lefty. Our term colors are purple, blue, green, and gold, and our symbols are constellations, skyscrapers, and bridges. This term we are fundraising in support of the Malala Fund and Young Abilities, and we will be doing Lodge cleanups and volunteering at PWC robotics competitions throughout the term. Following our Installation, we had refreshments downstairs, which included international foods. Akshita first served as Faith when we opened our Assembly two years ago, and it really is a reminder to all of us of how far we have come. Each member of our Assembly is proud of what we have accomplished, and we are excited to keep up our work for years to come!
