	Valley of Keene Ill. :. Richard F. Doble, 33º, MSA

	"Scottish Rite Masonry is a fraternal organizations whereby one can further his knowledge of the lessons taught in Ancient Craft Masonry. Its where a Brother can be heavily involved in its activities or just sit on the sidelines enjoying the many different degrees in a casual rather than highly structured environment. Its where leaders can further enhance their organizational skills by learning to Direct and Manage the many activities associated with the craft. Its also another organization where people with common interest can make new friendships which will last a lifetime."


	Valley of Lancaster/Littleton Ill. :. Dennis A. Sheridan, 33º

	Freemasonry is composed of many extraordinary organizations that perform in basically the same way. Their goals are to grow in membership and be charitable to needy individuals or organizations. The Scottish Rite has always stood out as a Leader among many in these promotional activities. In the performance of degree work, the individual is challenged to develop his skills in memorization as with all other Masonic Bodies. But the dramatic presentation of the degree work teaches one how to master his own abilities and project his work in such manner as to improve his acting skills. This skill can be taken him back to Lodge or wherever he may proceed in life, and will make him a better Master Mason.


	Valley of Nashua Thomas S. Lowe, 32º

	Welcome to the Scottish Rite Valley of Nashua. Scottish Rite affords many opportunities for our members. Our degrees extend our Masonic knowledge. Our members experience the wonderful fellowship of our Reunions, establishing life-long friendships. Participation in the degrees presents the wonderful opportunities to grow as individuals, enjoy the camaraderie of the rehearsals, and the satisfaction of a job well-done. A member can do as much or as little as suits him – as with all Masonry: the gains far exceed the personal effort invested.


	Valley of Portsmouth/Dover Ill. :. Jeremy J. Sawyer, 33º

	"Scottish Rite provides me with an incentive to learn more, to be compassionate, charitable, and to be serviceable to family, community, and country. It enhances my understanding and knowledge of our beloved Craft and provides an opportunity to serve and support worthy charities for the betterment of others. The things I cherish most are the friendships engendered, the association with other like-minded citizens who possess quality values and sound character along with the opportunity to participate in reunions that impart messages that amplify the lessons learned in the symbolic degrees. I have learned that no man is an island and that Together Everyone Accomplishes More; that we do not just become old, rather, we get old by not growing. So, I implore all of us to stay involved and promote Faith, Hope, and Charity."
