When we received the news that many Rainbow events were to be closed and we were not allowed to meet personally, my heart sank. I was so sad that I couldn’t see all of my Rainbow sisters. This helped me to think of a way to talk to each other and be able to meet new girls across Virginia. I came up with the Snail Mail Buddy Challenge because I wanted girls to be able to keep in touch with one another, as well as, to get through quarantine in a very fun and engaging way. I was excited that so many people so many people from Virginia Rainbow girls and adults, as well as members from Demolay and Job’s Daughters wanted to participate! Everyone was so excited to mail cute and funny letters back and forth to one another and to keep in touch with their friends and new friends during quarantine! I am so happy that so many people enjoyed this challenge and I hope it continues!  I want to start a new challenge as soon as the new term begins on July 18th!

           For the month of April, Sarah from Norfolk Assembly #15 made a great idea to have a spirit month. To help occupy some of the time for our Rainbow family, Sarah wanted to make sure that people had fun getting dressed instead of staying in their pajamas all day long. Some of the spirit day examples included dressing in the colors of the rainbow, Gigi apparel week, which included topics from her grand term, and things to follow our current Worthy Advisor of Norfolk’s theme, Momma Mia! All of the Rainbow girls and adults had so much fun participating in this spirit month! It was a great way to keep us all engaged!
