Theme

Theme for 2013

The Symbol for the year will be "Santa Claus"

Santa Has been loved and cherished for generations and symbolizes the generosity and goodwill we feel. He represents all the goodness and innocence of childhood which we carry with us into our adult life. He represents the true spirit of giving within us, not the monetary gifts, but the true unselfish giving of ourselves, our friendship, understanding, help, and love that we extend to our family, friends, sisters, and brothers. The same basic principles that apply to our order.

I would ask that the Associate Matrons wear your name badge on the left side and wear only the official pin on the ribbon.

It is my privilege and honor to serve this Grand Jurisdiction and I look forward to the friendships we will find through 2013.
