ORCA Science Trip

 

Last weekend, I traveled down to Medford with some of the younger members of Bend Lodge for Blue Lodge Training.  We went over some of the things needed for a successful Masonic year.

 

This weekend we went to Newport with Oregon Connections Academy, the online school the kids have been attending this year.  Bryan got to go out on a boat.

While Jennifer checked out the exhibits in the Hatfield Science Center.

Mystery Trip

Monday we traveled to Portland again to help Bethel 1 initiate a new girl. Jennifer did 1st and 5th Messenger from memory, and read 3rd and 4th. The meeting was also an official visit, so the Vice Grand Guardian and Vice Associate Grand Guardian were there, as well as Miss Oregon Job's Daughters. The Daughters of Bethel 1 gave Jennifer a gift for coming over and helping them.

Because Jennifer has visited Bethel 1 several times and helped out with initiations, this weekend they invited her to go on a Mystery Trip with them. The girls visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory and the beach at Seaside.
