Today was a busy day with the Hi-12 Christmas party at lunch where all the State Officers came to Dayton to install the officers (with Joe Fair as President) and to hold their annual Christmas Party. An interesting side note is that for a group mainly made up of retired guys, one of their main projects is to raise funds to help pay for College Scholarships at a specific school for political majors. The cost per year at this school $60K per year and these guys raise the money to help students attend and the only thing they ask in return is the students must work in the field after graduation. I personally belong (though I can't attend very often) because they are big supporter of the local DeMolay Chapters and when I was in DeMolay they gave me a scholarship to attend DeMolay Leadership Camp. Later in the evening I went to my Commandery meeting where they were doing the full form Order of Malta on a candidate to get him ready for Inspection in January. The candidate is a Past Master of Minerva Lodge, Ken Ballinger, and one of those who have been very involved with a major renovation of the temple over the past few months.
