Celebration of the Craft 04/10/2012

Celebration of the Craft: May 19th, 2012 at 6:00 pm - 12:00 am, EDT

This celebration of the Scottish Rite will be similar to a telethon but broadcast over the internet on May 19th. Our Web Event will pay tribute to Freemasonry with entertainment, celebrities, humor, and educational programming. Our host will be Ill. Norm Crosby, 33°. It will be broadcast through the Scottish Rite web site at www.scottishrite.org.

For donations made online or called in during the Web Event, 50% of the net proceeds will benefit the Rebuilding the Temple Campaign to restore the House of the Temple and 50% will benefit Orient and/or Valley 501(c)3 organizations.

What can you do?:

1.       Mark May 19th on your calendar.

2.       Plan on watching with your Valley or at home.

3.       Let all of your Masonic friends know about the Web Event and its importance.

4.       Plan on making a gift to help us preserve and restore the House of the Temple and also benefit your Orient.

5.       Donations can be made online, by text, by phone, and on Facebook. Throughout the broadcast we will give up to the minute updates. If every member made just a $5 contribution we would hit our goal of $1 million.
