2010 Outdoor Degree

The twenty-fourth annual Outdoor Degree with Family Cookout in my District was held yesterday. It was well attended, the weather cooperated perfectly, the food was outstanding, and there are now three new Master Masons – one each from three different lodges – in the District.

The work of the host lodge, officers and members of the other nine lodges, and the officers and members of the Lowcountry Masters and Warden Club did not go unnoticed. It takes much labor to successfully pull off this type of event and all involved are to be commended.

Sounds great, but I am wondering: how does the Lodge tyle an outdoor ceremony?

Very carefully! Outdoor degrees are held in secluded places that are relatively easy to guard/tile.

Very carefully, indeed! Thanks for that. I presume that hovering helicopters are not a problem... ;-)

We have that covered. The tiler is equipped with a shoulder-fired anti-aircraft rocket. ;-)
