On Saturday, July 24th, 2021, we had our installation at Manchester Lodge. Sammy, our incoming Worthy Advisor, and the Advisory Board did a really good job decorating and planning everything. We had to arrive at the lodge at 10am to practice and help get some things ready. It was nice to have an in-person installation again. We had
some of our Rainbow sisters from all over Virginia come and visit. Sammy did an amazing job and I know that her “Finding Magic From Within” term is going to be great!

Last Friday on July 23rd, our Assembly had a pool party and a “Pass the Torch” event at Grace’s house. We all had a blast doing karaoke, eating pizza, and swimming of course. We played fun games and loved Dad Joe’s brownies that Grace “willingly” shared. We all tried this game where you get two towels and cross together. We spent hours trying to untie the towels. Some of the girls spent the night, but we barely got any sleep. Overall, we had a really great time, and would love to do it again.

While I didn’t have enough time to go to Richmond’s Installation this weekend, I was able to turn on Zoom and watch the afternoon session for Canada’s Grand Assembly.  This was a game session where everyone played a scavenger hunt paying homage to the missed Rainbow travel over nearly a year and a half since the pandemic started.  We went in search of things around our house that we would either take on travels like a passport or driver’s license to things we would get on a trip like our favorite souvenir.  This made me want to go visit Canada Rainbow when things open up and we can cross the border without restrictions.

After Manassas Assembly #13 held its installation of officers’ ceremony, we were welcomed into the dining hall for refreshments.  Many members were very quick to get their food and eat it so they could get changed for the next event.  The assembly members were being divided into their tribes for the term and they would compete.  The field games planned were designed to also include all the visiting members as they would be taken into the different groups for the day.  I wish I could have stayed to participate but I have summer classes right now.  Kaitlyn said that there was also a food challenge.  I just hope it was more like the reception food rather than what the Survivor show offers for food!  I hope everyone had a good time!
