1. The date of our 2018 Southern Oregon Scottish Rite Reunion held at the Medford Valley Scottish Rite Center has been recently changed due to scheduling conflicts with various Masonic organizations.
The new dates for the 2018 Reunion will be May 18th & 19th, 2018. More information will be forthcoming on this but, we wanted to get the revised dates out as soon as possible. The registration Forms for the Reunion will be posted on the Scottish Rite Blog when available in the near future.

The Venerable Master of the Lodge of Perfection lead a hardy round of applause for our Brothers hard work and dedication to the Master Craftsman Program and his meritorious achievement; well done Gary!
3. The Medford Valley Scottish Rite recently initiated the Knight of the Double Eagle Service Award program as a means of recognizing those members who actively participate in Valley programs and Scottish Rite sponsored events. Medford Valleys first Knighting ceremony of the Order of Knights of the Double Eagle was held on February 19, 2018. This investiture was given to those Brothers who demonstrated conspicuous zeal in their efforts to further the customs and ceremonies of the Medford Valley of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite. The ceremony was open to the public and eleven Brothers of the Medford Valley earned the privilege of being conferred the title of Knight of the Double Eagle, were presented with the jewel, and patent prior to a Banquet Dinner held in their honor. Illustrious Brother Jim Preston, 33* conducted the ceremony and complimented the new Knights on their dedication and commitment to the Medford Valley Scottish Rite and community.
