On July 22nd 2017, sisters Sierra, Taylor, and Victoria attended the DeMolay Conclave dance held at Christopher Newport University. It was very fun to see so many of the Masonic Youth just dancing and enjoying themselves. There were a few slow songs and some of the Richmond girls even got asked to dance! JPGWA Rachal Murray and GWA Libby Whitehouse were there, as well as girls from a lot of our Assemblies. We got to see some of our old friends as well.  Over all it was a fun night! 

On July 22, our Worthy Advisor, Phoenix, her cousin Asia, Rainbow Sisters: Sarah and Lisa, our Mother Advisor, Christi Reed, my sister, Sarah, and I attended DeMolay’s Conclave.  There, I was able to see our DeMolay brothers, our Jobie and Rainbow Sisters, and our Grand Worthy Advisor, Libby Whitehouse.  The dance was so much fun to attend!   I had so much fun dancing with everyone there!  I also got to meet one of Florida’s past Grand Worthy Advisors, Mrs. Kristy Hajimihalis on our way there.  Overall, I was so happy to attend DeMolay’s Conclave because I was able to have a fun experience with my whole family. 

April 15, 2017 – Once we were done with the benches and chairs at the George Washington Masonic National Memorial we were hungry enough to go get something to eat.  It was also a little too early to go to the Lodge Easter party and we needed somewhere to go for a little while.  We joined with the Manassas DeMolay Chapter, who were already with us from the Alexandria service project, and went to Fuddruckers in Woodbridge, VA. It was fun since it was the first time I had the chance to do a fun event with the Manassas DeMolay Chapter. The girls there were:  Vanessa, Joella, Zoey, Batu, M’Balu, Ashley, Zoe, and me.  We were joined by DeMolay members Josh and Preston with their leader Dad Wyatt.

Service Project to help DeMolay in Alexandria, VA

April 15, 2017 – On Saturday morning, we helped to set up benches and chairs at the George Washington Masonic National Memorial for their Easter Sunday service.  We arrived shortly after 9am and we brought Joella, Ashley, and Zoe in our car.  There were so many people helping that we finished in about 50 minutes which they said was a record.  From our Assembly, we had Vanessa, Joella, Zoey, Batu, M’Balu, Ashley, Zoe, and me. Our adults were Mom Paula, Dad Wyatt, Mom Jean, Mom Erin, and Mom Louisa. Once we were done, we got a large group picture and we were able to see the gift shop since it was open after the setup was complete.  

This was a fun experience since we got to see so many people from Northern Virginia help in a common cause.
