July 9, 2021, Pennsylvania Grand Assembly
I was able to attend the opening session of the Pennsylvania Grand Assembly this year through zoom. Unfortunately, they were not able to accommodate out-of-state guests this year, but I could watch the sessions. This year it was the “Spread the Sunshine” Session with Steffanie Barth as the GWA for 2020 – 2021. The symbols for the year were sunflowers, suns, and bees. The colors were blue, yellow, and white. There were some interesting things that I saw this session which included in the flag tributes that specifically did a speech for the flag of Tennessee because it is the flag of the state for the Supreme Worthy Advisor. I also found it interesting that they provide mentor awards for their adult workers to honor all that they do behind the scenes to make Rainbow girls look good. It was a surprisingly short opening session, but there are two sessions yet to go, and I’m sure I missed some things since I only see the non-closed parts over zoom. Looking forward to the Saturday sessions!
