Covering the Future
Part of this year's Bicentennial celebration is the creation of time capsules by all 25 Masonic Districts as well as the Scottish Rite, York Rite and the Home. The capsules will be deposited in a location at the Home during a special ceremony on Masonic Home Day, September 7 in Springfield.
A special "covering" will be created above the area in which the capsules are deposited to mark it for future generations and those who will ultimately retrieve the capsules many years from now. Commemorative granite stones are being created especially for this area and are available for purchase.
To secure your place...or that of your Lodge, Chapter, Council, Commandery or other body...in this specially marked area, purchase one or more of these stones. Their sizes and the number of lines of text and characters per line (including spaces) are indicated here. Prices include engraving.
