Monday night was my Commandery's, Medina #84, stated conclave. We have a pot-luck dinner with the ladies prior to the conclave. The most important item of the meeting was the reading of the General Orders and starting to set a schedule for inspection practices.
Tuesday night was O.E.S, Medina #266, stated meeting. Two new members were initiated with the officers doing a very nice degree. We may joke about the introductions that are done at a O.E.S. meeting but nobody can say that the degree work, when done properly, is not a beautiful thing to watch or participate in.
Wednesday night was the inspection of Chagrin Falls Chapter #152. Excellent Companion Gustav (Gus) Stern and his officers did a fine job in opening Royal Arch in full form and portraying the Past Master degree for two candidates. This was Right Excellent Companion Don Van Horn's first inspection and he had 7 Grand Officers present. GHP, GPS, GM3V, GM2V, GMarsh, GTreas. and Grand Parlimentarian. I can not say enough about how your Grand Chapter officers travel! After the meeting we had some of the best bar-b-que sandwichs I have ever had. Great meeting, great refreshment and most importantly great Companionship.
Later today Julia and I will leave for Grand Lodge. Hopefull I will get some time to let you know how things are going there.
Companions, if you have not looked at MWB Posey's blog, please do so. He has comments about Grand Council, Grand Chapter and Grand Commandery and includes a great number of pictures. This Grand Chapter could not ask for a better friend than Most Worshipful Brother Terry Posey.
