SUMMARY:2024 One-Day-to-Masonry
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 One-Day-to-Masonry is scheduled to be held on January 20\, 2024\, at the Minneapolis Scottish Rite. \nAs with past One-Day-to-Masonry events\, this one will include a continental breakfast and a hearty lunch. All three degrees will be portrayed in full form. Brothers attending on the sidelines will enjoy the degree work every bit as much as the candidates will. \nThe total cost for candidates (not including lodge dues) is $250. This fee includes all degree fees and assessments\, white leather apron\, ritual cipher\, Minnesota Masonic Manual\, meals for the candidate\, and other items. \nAll Master Masons are invited and encouraged to attend. If a Brother just wants to stop in to witness some of the degree work\, no reservation is required; but if the Brother plans on staying for lunch\, a ticket is required. Lunch tickets are $20 and advanced registration is required. The only tickets available for purchase the day of the event will be last minute cancellations\, so please purchase your lunch tickets in advance. \nTHE DEADLINE FOR CANDIDATE REGISTRATIONS AND PURCHASING MEAL TICKETS IS WEDNESDAY\, JANUARY 10TH. \nFirst-line signers are asked to have the candidate complete a regular petition for the degrees. That petition must be sent to the local Lodge along with the required fee and a request to attend this One-Day-to-Masonry event. Time will soon be drawing short\, so do not delay—assist your candidate in completing his petition today. \nIf you have any questions\, contact your District Representative or the Grand Lodge office (office@mnfreemasons.org | 952-948-6700\, 800-245-6050). \nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER A CANDIDATE
