Quantico-Freedom Assembly Installation

January 11^th, 2020

JoElla 

On January 11^th, Zoë  got installed as Worthy Advisor at my home assembly, Quantico-Freedom #6. Before her installation, we finally got chartered and became an official assembly. This was a giant leap from last June, when Mom J let us open originally.

The girls who attended were, JoElla, Zoë, Zoey, M’balu, Batu, Lillian, Akshita, Audrey, Kassie, Jazmin, Dionna, and Abby. Zoë’s theme this term is Sleeping Beauty. Her mascots are Phillip the owl, and Eleanor the dragon. Zoë’s charity is ACTS, a Prince William County based charity that helps out the less fortunate with anything they need.

Her colors are pink, blue, green and gold. Her flower is the red rose. After the installation, we all cleaned up the lodge room, then got ready for the sleepover that was held at the lodge later that evening.

The sleepover and installation were both a great time, and I know we are going to achieve a lot this term!

Manassas Christmas Party – 12/18/2019

This year I was tasked with planning the Manassas Assembly Christmas party.  It was held following the meeting.  The food included pizza, cake, cookies and drinks.  We started the party with the gift exchange which was very civilized compared to what I witnessed at the BHS ILITE Robotics party.  Then we heard the winners for the ugly sweater contest and most festive dressed contest.  After that we play musical chairs.  Let me just say that I apologize to everyone who may have been injured during this game.  I had no idea it would get so physical!  Several people just sat out from the start since it is a competitive game and they had festive outfits on that restricted movement.  It seemed like everyone had a good time.  Can’t wait until next year!

AW Lodge Essay Contest

Entries are due by March 20th!

My Intent 

I spent one Friday evening at the Manassas Masonic Lodge with several of my Rainbow sisters.  We watched a TED talk and proceeded to dive into our goals for ourselves in the coming year.  Once we partnered up and discussed how to put our goals into a single word we got to work.  We made jewelry!  Either a bracelet or a necklace (or both in some cases) based on the word or words that we arrived at for our goals in the coming year.  It was a fun experience, and now there is a secret letter in the floor in the dining room of the lodge left by an overzealous WA.  Next time you are there see if you can find it!
