The Spring session of the Academy of Masonic Knowledge will be held on Saturday, March 20th, in the Deike Auditorium of the Freemasons Cultural Center on the campus of Masonic Village in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania. Registration will open at 8:30 AM with the program beginning at 9:30 AM. A lunch (voluntary contribution) will be served at noon and the program will be completed by 3:00 PM. All Masons are welcome to attend. Dress is coat and tie.

The speakers for the March meeting of the Academy will be:

Brother C. DeForrest Trexler, 33º, Allentown, PA who will speak on Degree Rituals of the Scottish Rite, Northern Masonic Jurisdiction.
Brother Sean D. Graystone, 33º, G.C., Superintendent, House of the Temple, Washington, D.C. who will speak on Esoteric Freemasonry.

Twice a year the Academy meets at Elizabethtown, at which time two of the world's best scholars usually address the meeting on a Masonic subject in their field of expertise. The Academy meetings are open to any Mason who wishes to attend.

Through the Fall of 2009, more than 34 of these scholars have addressed our meetings on many diverse Masonic subjects, some of the historic nature with others of present-day relevance. We encourage you to take advantage of this unique opportunity to learn from the great Masonic minds in today's world.

The great objective in Freemasonry is to gain useful knowledge, and the Academy provides a great opportunity for the Brethren to learn and to understand more about the significance of the Craft. Plan to attend and bring a Brother or two along with you.

Pre-registration is required. To pre-register simply E-mail Brother Jim Standish with your name, address, Lodge number, telephone number, and e-mail address or send this same information to Brother Jim Standish at: 1 Pierce Court, Glen Mills, PA 19342-1787.

The Fall meeting of the Academy is scheduled for Saturday, October 23, 2010 at the Freemasons Cultural Center in Elizabethtown, PA. The speakers for the Fall 2010 meeting will be Masonic authors and scholars, Brothers R. William Weisberger and Christopher Hodapp. Their topics will be announced later in the year.
