This year’s Strawberry Night was on Saturday, May 21st, and the Grand Master that attended was Jim Golladay. A few helpers and I had already decorated the dining hall for the dinner, so all we needed to do the next day was balloons and food. Once everyone had already entered the lodge, some Rainbow Girls from our assembly and I served the food, which was chicken picatta, rice pilaf, and roasted vegetables. The Grand Master then presented a speech about the Masonic youth and kindness to everyone at the dinner. Gifts were given to the Grand Master and his wife as appreciation for their responsibilities. The dessert was strawberry shortcake with whipped cream. The money earned during the dinner was donated to the Masonic home.

On Sunday, May 15th, the Manassas Lodge had a gardening of their front lawn. We first removed all the weeds with shovels and cut the overgrown bushes. Next, we threw away the weeds and replaced the dry dirt with fresh mulch. After that, we dug holes into the mulch to add new flowers then watered both the flowers and the mulch so that the plants around them could also grow. The temperature outside at the time was very hot and it was humid, so we needed to take water breaks occasionally. After we were done, the lawn looked very nice and welcoming.

Last Saturday on May 28th we went to Kings Dominion. It was very eventful and fun, I know a lot of people enjoyed themselves. We even had people from other assemblies and people also came from DeMolay too! I always love it when the Rainbow Girls can get together and have fun. Personally, it was my first time and I’m so glad my first time going to Kings Dominion was with the Rainbow Girls!

I have been in Rainbow for a little over 2 years now. Some of my favorite things about Rainbow Girls are, how much fun we have at events and in general. They are also serious when they need to be. They also do a lot of charitable things every term, which I love. They teach a lot of lessons in multiple ways too. They are overall amazing!
