Hello My Brothers,
After more than a year of restrictions and hardships, I would like to announce that the Valley of Austin, Scottish Rite of Freemasonry will hold the 2021 Summer Reunion dedicated to:
Illustrious Moton H. Crockett Jr. 33° I.G.H.
on Saturday, July 10, 2021 at the Scottish Rite Temple located at 207 W. 18th St. in Austin, Texas. The Reunion will start at 7:00 a.m. with breakfast and will be followed by the conferrals of the Terminal degrees. Lunch will be served around noon and the Reunion will finish up at about 7:00 p.m.
I urge you to attend the reunion to revisit the lessons contained within the degrees, catch up with your Brothers, see the improvements made to the Temple in the last year, and welcome new members into the Scottish Rite.
It is not too late to submit a petition. Petitions can be found on the Austin Scottish Rite Website by clicking here.
Petitions can be turned in as late as July 5, 2021 and can be sent to gs@austinscottishrite.org with a copy of the candidate’s current Blue Lodge dues card. A candidate must be a Master Mason in good standing who has turned in his Master’s work. The degree fees of $275 will be due on the day of the reunion.
