The Lodge’s Easter Party was April 15. We had games, food, and an Easter Egg hunt. We broke up in teams and went in search of eggs. Most of the Rainbow Girls gave their candy-filled eggs to the younger children. It was fun explaining how to find the eggs to a few of our Rainbow Sisters who had never had an egg hunt before. Most of the Rainbow Girls and DeMolay were together at the Temple earlier so we just continued to have fun laughing and talking together.

Overall, the party was fun and the day was great with hanging with our Masonic Family.

On Saturday, April 15, Manassas Assembly assisted our DeMolay Brothers in setting up benches and chairs at the Masonic Temple for the Easter Sunrise Service the next day. It was a lot of fun with laughter and jokes. It was great to be able to help our Prince William Chapter brothers and the other Demolay in the area. We started at 9:00 and by 10:00, we were done. Many of the DeMolay adults said that with so many of us there it went by quickly. After we were finished, Manassas Assembly and Prince William Chapter went out together for lunch.

I hope we do this again next year!

On April 8, 2017, Manassas Assembly held a Southern Country Dinner and silent auction fundraiser to benefit the special Olympics, which is the Worthy Advisor’s charity. We raised over $1,200 for her charity. Sixty seven people came to the dinner.Set up was at four o’clock, and when I got there people were already putting the decorations up. The color theme was red, white, and blue. We hung bandannas and balloons from the ceiling. We also set out items for the silent auction that we were having.

The adults were cooking in the kitchen while we were decorating. For dinner we served: fried chicken, coleslaw, mashed potatoes, gravy, cobbler or a chocolate chip cookie. Everyone loved the dinner that was made.

Girls that were there: Vanessa, Sami, Katie, Kate, Delaney, Zoe, Zoey, M’ Balu, Batu, Gigi, JoElla, Maribel, and myself.

Adult helpers were: Paula, Ange, Joanne, Louisa, Wyatt, Jean, Debbie, Clancy, Tom, Tammy, and other members of the sponsoring orders.
Other help: Preston

Hampton Assembly drove far and wide and ended up at the Sweetheart Ball in Fairfax! The northern region put on a fun night with balloons and pink hearts. There was a big turnout and lots of energy. Before it started, two Tidewater DeMolay members played ballon volleyball one of my Hampton Sisters and me. We definitely worked up a sweat! There was fun music, new and old. They also held a lip sync battle and many teams competed but the winner was Mom J’s granddaughter. She was so cute with her sunglasses! The dance was a great time and although I got back home at 3am, it was worth it! I can’t wait to do it again!
