Scottish Rite Has Talent Update-Elena Dixon

Encourage talented members in your Valley and community

to submit an entry for Scottish Rite Has Talent.

Specifically non-musical talent is what we are striving for.

We will have 18 Talent Winners total and are in need of non-

musical talent. In the past we have had magicians and even

a mime.

CTC 2015 Overview-Matt Szramoski & Elena Dixon

In 2015 we are striving for 100% participation from members

across the Southern Jurisdiction.

As Orient Chairmen you can help support CTC in numerous

ways:

o Coordinating an event or participating in our social

media campaign.

o Giving back to the House of the Temple and the Scottish

Rite can be as simple as raising $10 per each member of

your Valley to donate during CTC.

o We are aiming to raise a minimum of $1 million cash

during CTC and we NEED your help.

o Challenge your fellow brethren, community, and family

to raise a minimum of $10 from every member of your

Valley.
