 We had a great little get together today! Five adults, three DeMolay and one Job's Daughters member. Once again, the billiards table proved to be popular. Good discussions about planning for two upcoming events: The Initiatory degree on March 14th and the Alberta DeMolay Association spring workshop on April 10, 11 and 12, 2026. Exciting times for DeMolay in Saskatchewan!

Saskatoon and District Labour Council Annual General Meeting

On Friday, February 6, 2026, DeMolay assisted Job's  Daughters at the Masonic Temple. Job's invited DeMolay to help out at the Saskatoon and District Labour Council annual general meeting. DeMolay was  required to clear the banquet tables after the evening meal. Following that, they reset the tables for the second day of the meeting.  DeMolay had two adults and two DeMolay work at this event. Turns out it was easy work though because Job's Daughters had many workers too! And to make the event even better, DeMolay will be paid a small amount for helping out!

January 18, 2026 Meeting

 A regular meeting was held in the Chapter Room.  Chael presented a DeMolay t shirt to our newest member, Raphaël. The following were topics of discussion: -Current membership status and prospective candidates. -Future social events such as a visit to the trampoline center and a bowling event which would include Job's Daughters. -The proposed timeline to have our newest members receive the Initiatory degree and the DeMolay degree. We are hoping that the Alberta DeMolay Association will come to Saskatoon in February or March for the Initiatory degree. This could be followed in April with the DeMolay degree at the ADA spring workshop.

 Job's Daughters Installation of Officers On Sunday, January 4, 2026, we attended the Job's Daughters installation of officers. We had excellent representation from DeMolay, including a prospective candidate, parents, siblings and grandparents. The Jobies performed the installation with perfect memory work and floorwork. They appear to be in good hands for the ensuing term.

Shrine Children's Christmas Party

 DeMolay attended the annual Shrine Christmas party on December 7, 2025. We had 4 existing members attend along with siblings, parents and grandparents. As usual, the Shrine Club did not disappoint! The master of ceremonies kept the children engaged throughout the two hour event and the Shrine clown unit provided much fun and frivolity! Job's Daughters engaged the children with arts and crafts activities. DeMolay assisted Santa with gift delivery to all children in attendance.  "Gift wrapping" Shrine and Grand Lodge members. Artistic results of gift wrapping! Four DeMolay and one who will join in January 2026. Ho, Ho, Ho, its Santa time! A rousing rendition of Jingle Bells!
