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.

The Richmond Installation was on January 27th, 2018 at the Scottish Rite Temple. Sierra was being installed as Worthy Advisor and her theme was “Walk the Stage with Broadway Musicals”.  I went there with Zoey, M’Balu and Mom Jean and we ate at a Wendy’s with very bad service.  The Girls that attended were me, Isabella, Gigi, M’ Balu, Zoey, Joella, Makenzie, and Dalanie. Before the Rainbow Installation, the Girls held a Sparkle Installation for Sierra’s little sister. During the Rainbow Installation, the Installing Officers did a great job and I really liked the carry-in’s that the Richmond Girls made. Sierra was presented with her crown, gavel, and sounding block by her friends and family, and she gave a speech about her theme and the musicals that she chose to use in the Installation. Then two of the Richmond Girls (one of them being her sister) performed a musical that they wrote about Sierra becoming Worthy Advisor and gave her the red panda mascot. In the refreshment room, each table was decorated with things from some of Sierra’s favorite musicals. Everyone got to vote on the best decorated table by the Girls, and the best decorated table by the adults. The winners was the Hamilton table (by Girls) and the Wicked table (by adults). There was lots of food and I definitely had lots of fun!

Manassas Assembly #13

Ms. Sandy Leathers was installed on March 3^rd, 2018. Katie, Sami, M’balu, Batu and I went to Quantico’s John A. Lejeune Masonic Temple.  Mom Tammy, Mom Jean, and Mom Robin attended also. M’balu, Batu and I helped pass out programs and prayer rocks. I enjoyed attending an OES installation and I enjoyed seeing everyone at Quantico again. The weather had the power out in a few places and I’m glad Quantico wasn’t one of them.

On March 10th, we arrived at the Lodge shortly after 1pm.  We brought in our food and got changed for the Installation.  It was really nice since Mom Jean was installed as Worthy Matron this year and she has always been so helpful to our Assembly.  Dad Tom was supposed to be installed as Worthy Patron, but he couldn’t be there.  This year Mom Jean is honoring women and her charity is blood drives and she talked about the importance of donating blood.  After the Installation closed, Dad Joe Grist and Vanessa did a flag tribute. Then some of the Rainbow Girls paired up with their Eastern Star Mothers and performed a Ribbon Ceremony for Mom Jean.  Once the Ribbon Ceremony was over, the Prince William Chapter for DeMolay added beads to the ribbons with their own ceremony.  Then there were pictures and a reception in the dining hall.  The Rainbow Girls that were there included:  Katie, Dalanie, Zoey, Vanessa, M’Balu, JoElla, Maribel, Sami, Jazmyn, Batu, Gigi, Abigail, Emma and myself.  The adults and parents from Rainbow who were there included:  Mom J, Mom Jean, Mom Robin, Mom Barbara, Mom Darcy, Mom Paula, Mom Louisa, Dad Clancy, Mom Deborah, Mom Joanne, Dad Wyatt, Mom Debbie, Dad Carl, Mom Deborah, and Mom Joanne.
