The Prince William DeMolay Chapter’s Installation was on March 24.  A lot of people were there. One of the Rainbow Girl’s (Vanessa) brother was the one who got installed Master Councilor. My brothers were installing officers.  Noah did the Installing Officer part and Ryan was Junior Councilor.  They did a very good job at their parts. The gavel and ring Preston got were pretty.  Dad Costis made the gavel. It was cool that he made the gavel out of a block of wood.
Dad Stallings presented the Costis Family with an honorary DeMolay member certificate.  We know Matthew would have been a great DeMolay!

On March 24th, we arrived at the Lodge at 2pm.  The Installation started with Dad Joe Grist and Vanessa doing a flag tribute.  This term, Preston is the Master Councilor and he wants to raise money for the Masonic Scholarship Fund, fix up the baseball field, and create a horse shoe place in the land behind the Lodge parking lot. His colors for his term are orange and white.  There were many visiting DeMolay including several that traveled all the way from Pennsylvania.  The Costis Family was given an honorary membership for Matthew for DeMolay and it was really emotional.  The Rainbow Girls that were there included:  Katie, Kate, Dalanie, me, Vanessa, JoElla, Sami, Jazmyn, and Gigi.

On Saturday March 24th, Sara and Libbie attended the Installation of Prince William Chapter of DeMolay. Preston went in as Master Counselor and his Installing Officers went home with gift bags full of orange colored treats to represent his term color. Vanessa (from Manassas Assembly) is the sweetheart for Prince William Chapter and also held the flag during the tribute as she is currently Grand Patriotism. Overall the Installation was very fun and we enjoyed seeing Preston begin his term with such a lovely service.

September 16, 2017 – DeMolay Installation – I arrived a little after 2pm for the Installation.  It was neat to watch and exciting since it was the first DeMolay Installation for the Prince William Chapter since it was re-opened.  The new Master Counselor, Charles Hite, welcomed everyone and made our own Vanessa the Sweetheart for the Chapter this term.  Awards were given out to the DeMolay members and after the ceremony we took pictures and we retired to the Dining Hall for refreshments.  Many Rainbow Girls were there from the Manassas Assembly: Gigi, Katie, Kate, Zoey W., Vanessa, Joella, Sami, M’Balu, Batu, and me.  We even had a Manassas Pledge, Ella, in the audience.  It was a fun afternoon.  After everything was over, many of us headed over to the Henry Lodge in Fairfax for the Grand Visitation practice.
