Rachal and I travelled on a rainy Sunday to Roanoke to attend their Installation. It is always fun to go there and see the guys. They don’t get many visitors because they are so far away and they don’t have Rainbow Girls nearby. Tidewater and Kempsville Demolay also went. They were happy to see us. Keith Yancey was their new Master Councilor. The Installation was very nice. At the reception we had sandwiches and chips while we sat and visited with everyone. It was nice to catch up wth them since we don’t see them often.

On the way home, we did some sight seeing and took lots of pictures. It is a long drive but we love getting to spend time together.

Much Rainbow Love,

After a cold morning of sailing, it was a sweet surprise to see that some of my Rainbow Sisters had come to cheer me on! After the races, we all went inside to warm up over lunch. Then we met up with friends from Norfolk Assembly and headed to Richmond for the DeMolay Brotherhood Dance. We always have fun traveling. Some of our best memories are made on these trips. The dance was a lot of fun. There were tons of people there and the boys are always in a fun mood after finishing their competitions and are ready to dance. The girls and I enjoyed seeing everyone and danced the night away.

On January 30, 2016, Norfolk Rainbow Girls and the Norfolk DeMolay put together the Norfolk Winter Ball. This was held at the Granby Lodge in Virginia. For admission people either paid $3 or brought three canned food items to help their charity. I thought this was a great idea to have people come to the dance and bring in items to help the Worthy Advisor’s term. They had a great turn out of people ranging from babies and toddlers to adults. It was a great mixture of Rainbow, DeMolay, and Jobs Daughters. Some of Hampton Rainbow and Tidewater DeMolay helped DJ a great selection of music. There was fun dancing, good vibes, and of course, a conga line!!!
