After the annual meeting there will be a Feast Day celebration for the Council of Kadosh. According to the Supreme Council of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, a Council of the Kadosh celebrates a Feast Day (March 19). These dates correspond to the founding of the Order and the martyrdom of Jacques de Molay. We will celebrate both on February 11th following the annual meeting. Our evening will feature dinner, toasts, and a special program on the Council of Kadosh and the Knights Templar. Most of us know the basic story of the Templars but we hope to share some additional knowledge that may come as a surprise to you. For example, the 30th Degree is the 3rd of the 6 Knight Templar degrees of Scottish Rite. Do you know the other 5? This event is open only to Scottish Rite Masons. Cost is $12 for dinner and program. 2015 Monroe/Wagoner Full Reunion Schedule FRIDAY, MARCH 13, 2015 5:00 PM                  DINNER BUFFET 5:45 PM                  CLASS ASSEMBLES 6:00 PM                  RECEIVE CLASS LODGE OF PERFECTION DEGREES 6:20 PM                  4th Degree Secret Master 7:10 PM                  5th Degree Perfect Master 7:55 PM                  6th Degree Confidential Secretary 8:35 PM                  7th Degree Provost and Judge 9:10PM                   8th Degree Intendant of the Building 9:45 PM                  DISMISSAL SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 2015 7:45 AM                CLASS ASSEMBLES 8:00 AM                9th Degree Elu of the Nine                            10th Degree Elu of the Fifteen 8:50 AM               11th Degree Elu of the Twelve 9:40 A                  12th Degree Master Architect 10:25 AM              13th Degree Royal Arch of Solomon 11:10 AM              14th Degree Perfect Elu 12:05 PM              LUNCH CHAPTER OF ROSE CROIX DEGREES 1:00 PM               15th Degree Knight of the East 2:00 PM               16th Degree Prince of Jerusalem 3:00 PM               17th Degree Knight of the East & West 4:15 PM               18th Degree Knight Rose Croix 5:30 PM               SOCIAL HOUR FRIDAY, MARCH 27, 2015 5:00 PM               DINNER COUNCIL OF KADOSH DEGREES 5:45 PM              19th Degree Grand Pontiff 6:50 PM              20th Degree Master of the Symbolic                                 Lodge 7:45 PM              21st Degree Noachite or Prussian                                     Knight 9:00 PM              22nd Degree Knight of the Royal Axe SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 2015 7:15 AM              CLASS ASSEMBLES 7:30 AM              23rd Degree Chief of the Tabernacle 8:05 AM              24th Degree Prince of the Tabernacle 8:55 AM              25th Degree Knight of the Brazen                                   Serpent 9:35 AM              26th Degree Prince of Mercy 10:15 AM            27th Degree Knight of the Sun 11:15 AM            28th Degree Knight Commander of                                  Temple 11:50AM             LUNCH 12:40 PM            29th Degree Scottish Knight of St.                                  Andrew 1:25 PM             30th Degree Knight Kadosh CONSISTORY DEGREES 2:50 PM             31st Degree Inspector Inquisitor 4:00 PM             32nd Degree Master of the Royal Secret                         (1st) 4:55 PM             32nd Degree Master of the Royal                                    Secret(2nd) 6:00 PM             SOCIAL HOUR 6:45 PM             CLASS BANQUET & SPRING GALA One Day Reunion This year we will be having a One Day Reunion on the 2nd Saturday (March 28).  This will allow for candidates to choose the entire 29 degrees system over two weekends or a shortened schedule for those needing such a schedule.  The full reunion will begin on March 13th/14th and include the 4° to 18°.  March 27 will be 19° to 22°and March 28 23° to 32°.  The candidates for the One Day Class will receive the 4th, 14th, 18th, 28th, 29th, 30th, 31st & 32nd Degrees on March 28th.
