Message from the Grand Commander

Brethren,

It’s hard to believe that another year has come and gone, and we are approaching the Annual Observance of Charles W. Hunter Court of Chevaliers.

You will remember that in your obligation as a Chevalier, you promised that “hereafter on November 8th of each year as a memorial to our Founder, Frank Sherman Land, you will hold communion with a Fellow Chevalier or Court of Chevaliers.”

On November 8th this year, we will once again have the opportunity to observe this great and important occasion and break bread together and enjoy the fellowship that is found among the members of Hunter Court and the Order of DeMolay.

It is my sincere hope that you will take this opportunity to invite and bring with you a fellow Chevalier to share in this special fellowship.

Looking forward to greeting you on November 8th.

Warm fraternal greetings,

Donovan Cargill

Grand Commander, Hunter Court
