I am so very proud each and every day to be the Mother Advisor of Richmond Assembly #10. This weekend these girls made me even more proud. Our young girls Sierra and Victoria spent the weekend representing Richmond around the state. The girls along with myself and Mom McDaniel went to the Installation of Officers of Smithfield Assembly #5 on Saturday afternoon. The beautiful installation was followed by a dinner and dance. From there the girls went and had a rainbow sleepover to celebrate Victoria’s 12th birthday. Sunday, the girls once again represented Richmond at the Installation of Officers of Hampton Assembly #2. The girls devised plans to raise money for charity projects by mascot-napping. It was all in good fun though, and no mascots or Worthy Advisors were harmed- but money was definitely raised! Richmond may be a young assembly but the Rainbow Spirit is huge in these girls.

The DeMolay Conclave was a lot of fun!  The Conclave was held on July 25^th, 2015 at Christopher Newport University.  There were 6 girls from Manassas that attended, Gigi, Delanie, Katie, Kate, Selena and me.  On the way down, we stopped at Starbucks.  All were happy about the stop, but Katie was the most excited.  Her drink was as big as she was.  We got there before the dance started, so Grand Worthy Advisor, Rachel Cochrane, gave us a little tour of the campus.

After the tour it was time for the dance.  We had a lot of fun and met a lot of other Masonic youth.  I can’t wait until next year’s Conclave.

In Rainbow Love and Service,

Wow! What a wonderful term we had. Our Worthy Advisor, Gigi has done a great job for being a younger Worthy Advisor. She is organized and always had things planned for us to do! We did fundraisers for OES, Amaranth, Royal Arch, and the Masons. We had a lot of fun times too! We hosted a carnival and attended holiday parties at our Lodge! Our Assembly helped at a nearby school for their spring fling. We ran games, helped out at the dunk tank, and helped clean up. Another big fundraiser we hosted was our 2nd Annual Frank Sinatra dinner. We dressed up as waitresses and served our guests dinner. We learned that being a waitress is hard work! Manassas attended the State events also. Helping at Camp Friendship was a lot of fun. We worked in groups to clean up all around the camp. We also had a group of girls attend the International Dinner. Many of us participated in the Ritual Competitions in Richmond. We had 3 new girls join our Assembly this past term. We hosted a joint Initiation with Fredericksburg Assembly. Manassas Assembly had an awesome term and we are looking forward to the next 6 months!

Rainbow love,
Katie
