SR Express - Scottish Rite Showcase


Valley of Des Moines
----------------------------------
Orient of Iowa


September 26, 2017
PRESENTING the 2017 

Scottish Rite Showcase



Help us share with potential new members the excitement of Scottish Rite and the amazing members that we have in our    fraternity.  Think about when you joined and saw a fully costumed King Solomon or the Egyptian Court of the Dead for the first time.  Think about the power of music when the Double Eagle chorus sings and the pipe organ plays during our degrees.  This is our vision for the SCOTTISH RITE SHOWCASE. 

We also want your prospect to see Scottish Rite hospitality at its finest.  We want him to see that Scottish Rite is made up of great men from all walks of life. 

Lastly, we want both of you to be a part of this special evening.
