WOFAB

On Friday we loaded up the RV, picked up some DeMolay, and headed down to Cottage Grove for the Weekend of Friendship and Brotherhood.
The boys played sports and games.
Like softball, soccer, capture the flag, and tug of war.
On Saturday night, we celebrated Bryan's birthday.
We took a picture this morning before heading out.

Supreme Session

Last Thursday, we attended the annual Salem Masonic Youth Night. As before, it was held at the Gilbert House Children’s Museum.
Sunday, while Susan and Jennifer drove to Job's Daughters Supreme Session in Colorado, Bryan and I manned a cotton candy booth at a fair in Sellwood Park in Portland to raise money for Milwaukie DeMolay.
Upon their arrival in Colorado Springs, the girls were met by a thunderstorm.
Today, while Jennifer competed in ritual at Supreme Session, Bryan obligated two new boys into the Tigard-Orenomah Chapter of DeMolay.
