Leadership Weekend, Traveling Around the State

A camping we will go!

To the members of the Organization of Triangles and its supporters:

I can officially say it’s summer! This is my favorite season, with all the sun and warm weather along with the great food, because we all know how much I enjoy my southern barbecue.

In March, I attended Royal Arch. I wore red, which is my favorite color, to show support of their colors. Royal Arch was an amazing experience and we had a little share in laughs when I was called up to speak as I just finished putting a whole fork full of salad in my mouth. It was a joy to see Mr. Roche, one of Triangle’s greatest supporters, go in as Most Excellent Grand High Priest. His mission this term is to have as many Royal Arch members attend as many Masonic Youth events as possible. I believe this is amazing of him to do and I encourage you all to invite Royal Arch members to your events.

Some things I have been up to since my last post were attending Grand Assembly in April, where we said goodbye to Danielle with her beautiful heart song and welcomed in the magic with Sam Miller. I can say I was excited since Sam and I have been friends for years and I’m excited for her as she embarks on this journey and be there to help and support her in any way I can.

Then as we sprung into May I attended Grand Lodge. This one is the big one in my opinion and I was very excited! Also, it was my first car ride with Mrs. Turri and I enjoyed the company. There I spread my message about my boots and my charity, but I also spoke about how even though I lost my Dad at a young age I have gained so many through my experience in Triangle. I wanted to let the members of Grand Lodge know how much they truly mean to us. I thank them for all their continued support and showing me the love a father does.

Along with summer comes another favorite activity of mine which is camping. Speaking of camping, that is the theme for our next District convention! This is on Long Island and is on June 4th, I’m hoping I will see you all there.

Speaking of Camping, I hope you all are getting excited for Leadership Weekend that is coming up (July 8th-July 10th)! I know the Junior Advisors have been hard at work planning this event and are excited to share what they have for you! I know I will be there with plenty of bug spray and ready for some fun in the woods! Oh, and I can’t forget my boots!

I hope you all have a wonderful and safe summer and enjoy the upcoming holidays of Memorial Day and 4th of July!

In Triangle love,

Traveling Around the State

Happy Holidays!!

To the members of the Organization of Triangles and its supporters:

I want to wish you all a Happy Holiday and hope you are as excited as I am for this wonderful Holiday season!

At my first stop with my boots, I had the pleasure of representing our wonderful organization to the members of Eastern Star at Grand Chapter. It was my first official visit as State Representative and I enjoyed my time there with all of the members. I knew many faces in the crowd which made me feel right at home!

Next, I attended Bal-On-Sen’s Installation on November 14th. Beloved Queen Halle Cerio stepped down after an amazing year in office and my sister, Mary-Margaret Wright, started her term. I was so happy I could attend this event at my home Triangle and get to see the last Wright sister enter this office. I wish all of the officers the best of luck through their terms!

Then I attended another beautiful Installation on November 22 at Onistagrawa Triangle. There we saw one of our own Jr. Advisors, Megan Williams, step down as Beloved Queen. She did an outstanding job as Beloved Queen and I look forward to what she will add to the Jr. Advisor Council. Giuliana with her Frozen theme started her term and I am very excited to see what her term has in store. I, like Olaf, also like warm hugs!  

Now I know everyone has got Christmas on the brain (myself included), but I wanted to remind you about De-Tri-Ra Winterfest 2016!! It is going to be Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend (Fri. Jan 15-Sun. Jan 17). This weekend is going to include sisters from Triangle and Rainbow as well as our brothers from DeMolay in fun activities. We will have ice breakers, snow tubing, board games and movies!! I hope you all plan on attending and I see you all there! Remember forms are due New Years Eve. If you don’t have one and need one contact your Jr. Deputies or download it from the Resource page of our site. 

I hope you all have a great Holiday Season and cherish the memories you make with your friends and family! I can’t wait for my boots and I to travel to our next official visit in March.  

 

In Triangle Love,

Alison Wright
