March 2025
Welcome to March 2025! March brings with it a lot of “things” into our lives. Daylight Saving Time starts in March. St. Patrick’s Day is in March as well March Madness. The best one is that March 20 th is the first day of Spring!
Our Stated Meeting dinner on March 5 th will honor the committees that make our Valley the “best in the west.” The committees are the bulwark of our organization, and we cannot do what we do without them. Please come and help us honor and support them as they continue to move our Valley forward this year. Please make your reservations now through this website or by calling the office.
​
On Saturday, March 8 th , at 9:00 AM, please join us for some coffee and donuts at the San Diego Scottish Rite Masonic Center. This is our annual “Coffee and Donuts with the Venerable Master” and has been a great event since it was started by Brother Charlie Hogquist, 32° a couple of years ago. Be sure to invite your friends…we always had a good turnout of Scottish Rite Masons, Blue Lodge Masons, and even a couple of non-Masons. This is a social and casual dress event (shorts and flip/flops okay). Put on your Masonic thinking caps and we can discuss whatever is allowed to be discussed regarding Masonry among Brothers and friends - especially fun, food, and fellowship.
Please pass on this information to other members who you know do not have email access. If you have any questions, please contact the office via phone or email.
​
NOTE: As a member, if you have not been receiving emails from Scottish Rite and wish to do so, please provide us with your latest email address by calling the office.
