On August 11, 2016, the Lake Drummond Lodge invited the Rainbow Girls from Norfolk Assembly to perform the Bow Ceremony for the Youth Night. Everyone did a phenomenal job, especially our pledges, while presenting their parts. During the program, a 60 year Mason pin was presented. It was such an honor to witness the pinning of a Mason who have served for 60 years (and counting)! And, let’s not forget the delicious spaghetti served for dinner before the ceremony!

On August 6th, Smithfield #5 held their Installation of Officers. Pia, Phoenix, Kaitlyn, Joie, Sarah, and I attended the Installation. Brianna was installed as Worthy Advisor. Her mascot is a dolphin.  Her charity is the Ronald McDonald House and Supreme Assembly 2018 which will be in Hampton, VA.  I look forward to seeing what will happen during their term.

Norfolk Assembly met as a group to celebrate the Harry Potter book release at Barnes and Noble and to have some fun on a non-meeting weekend. We had six girls, two pledges, and eight adults join us. They had fun coloring activities for us to do and gave us great ideas to use at our Grand Visitation. We were also able to buy some of our favorite books while we were there. We had a fun and great time in honor of our Grand Worthy Advisor.

On July 23, 2016 Olivia and I went to help with the Child ID program in Hampton, Virginia. We got to see many adorable kids. In order to make an ID, you first have to enter their information in the computer. Next, you have to take scans of their fingerprints and put them in the computer. The next thing you have to do is take pictures of the child from the front, back, and side. Also, we have a microphone that lets us record the child’s voice, unless it is a baby, then we don’t do a recording. After all of the data is recorded, we make a print out of this information. We also put all of this information on a CD. Once the CD and the paper are finished being burned or printed, we give it to the parent or adult guardian. Overall, I enjoy doing Child ID and can’t wait for the upcoming ones.
