Phones Away Game Day (Norfolk Assembly No. 15)

Posted in Blog on August 25th, 2025 by admin

Phones Away Game Day was a time where we were not allowed on our phones when we played games. We had many games set up to play like Chutes and Ladders, Shipwreck, Yahtzee, Uno, and so on. We had many snacks that costed around a dollar. These were lots of chips and there was lots of candy. There were some decorations related to the theme like stars.

The people in attendance were Me, Mom Katherine, Morgan, Chloe, Macie, and Mom Julie. I played Shipwreck with Chloe while Mom Katherine and sister played Uno. We took lots of photos on Chloe’s camera. All of us, with the exception of Mom Julie, played Yahtzee and we were quite enthusiastic about the game. Overall, it was quite the fun time and I’m very glad I went. (by Ava C.)

Norfolk Assembly No. 15 End of Term Meeting and Installation of Officers

Posted in Blog on August 25th, 2025 by admin

On July 27th, Norfolk Assembly celebrated their 10th anniversary. This was their last meeting before they held their installation; it was also Becca’s last meeting as Worthy Advisor. She was the Worthy Advisor for Norfolk Assembly for three consecutive terms. For this meeting, I was lucky enough to pro-temp as Faith for Norfolk Assembly. They had every single station filled. Becca decided to open the meeting so the pledges could see it as well. Throughout the whole meeting, many kind words were given, tears were shed, and laughs filled the room. After the meeting, we celebrated with food and cake. I cannot wait to see what Norfolk Assembly does next. By Gabriella O.

On August 10th, I had the opportunity to attend Norfolk’s Installation of Officers, alongside Natalie F., Mom Erin P., and Mom J. Not only was the car ride there a fun time, but the Norfolk girls made the day even better with their cheerful and musical attitudes for their High School Musical term. Chloe V. went in as Worthy Advisor, doing an excellent job throughout. The day was filled with lots of fun, singing, and laughter, making for a great visit. I always love getting to visit Norfolk Assembly, and I can’t wait to see them all again soon. By Noelle F.

On Sunday August 10th Norfolk assembly number 15 held its installation of officers. There was a great showing of Masons, Eastern star, Jobies, and the deMolay in attendance. Chloe was installed as worthy advisor and was crowned by her mother and presented the gravel by her brother and father.

Becca received her past worthy advisor pen after serving Norfolk for three terms and she will be missed. Emily, the grand worthy advisor and Mom Erin Pendleton, the supreme deputy, were also in attendance and presented Becca, Alaina, and mom Christy with bear pens that symbolized their commitment to Rainbow.

A reception was held afterwards where a taco bar with wonderful food was eaten. High School Musical was the theme and was shown in cookies and decorations throughout. By Alaina N.

Springfield Assembly No. 14 Installation of Officers by Noelle F.

Posted in Blog on August 25th, 2025 by admin

It’s never a dull moment with Springfield Assembly No. 14. I had such a blast at Springfield’s Installation of Officers on August 9th, where Abby N. went three for three as Worthy Advisor. The term theme is Winnie the Pooh, and to say I was impressed by the handmade decorations is an understatement. Abby chose Hope and Serenity Farms as her charity for the term, which is a nonprofit organization that dedicates their time to nurturing neglected farm animals. It was a wonderful installation filled with fun and laughter, setting off a wonderful start to the new term. I can’t wait to visit Springfield Assembly again in the future.
