Notice of Scottish Rite event postponement and cancellations
Greetings Brothers,
I hope this message finds you and your loved ones safe and healthy.
Due to concerns for you and our members health and safety, and in order to take preemptive preventative measures in accordance with local, state and federal health officials recommendations, effective tonight at midnight, all Scottish Rite buildings, meetings, get-togethers, and rentals, are to be canceled, postponed or closed until further notice.
I know in some cases this will cause hardship, but our Brothers and their Families safety and health is important. The Portland area Schools are being closed for an extended Spring Break and other similar groups have taken the same cautionary steps for health reasons. The Grand Lodge of Oregon is also planning to recommend suspending Masonic activities in general until the end of the month and the Grand Lodge of Washington has already done so.
As this is an evolving situation we will keep you informed but for the time being there will not be any exceptions to this emergency precautionary measure.
God bless all of you and your love ones!
Fraternally,
Illustrious Brother Gary Kuney, 33°
Grand Chamberlain & S.G.I.G. in Oregon
