Let's keep pushing to support our youth as the Grand Master wants us to do. Brady Shrieves, the State Master Counselor and a member of Kempsville DeMolay, will be running the show. His dad, Brother Rob Shrieves would love to see each of you if you can make it.

On behalf of Great Bridge Masonic Lodge No. 257, you are invited to the Cornerstone Laying for the Briggs Funeral Home in Chesapeake, Virginia. The event will be start promptly at 6:00pm on Monday, 8 July. There is no exact street address, but it is located near the corner of Hillcrest Parkway and Battlefield Blvd, on Battlefield (near Hickory Towing). Parking will be available across the street if not available on site and we hope there will be law enforcement assistance with crossing the street.

The particulars - ALL masons that wish to participate are requested to be there no later 5:25pm. The dress IS dark suit, white shirt, a tie, and white gloves. You will wear your apron on the outside of your suit coat. If you do not have an apron, one will be available at the site. All masons participating will line up and be escorted in by the Marshal as part of the procession - you are part of this event so plan, and dress accordingly.

There is limited (close to zero) seating expected.

It will take approximately 40 minutes from start to finish.

If you arrive late, or want to observe but no participate, please observe with the other guests, do not walk through the proceedings to join your brothers that will be lined up.

Thank you very much for your understanding and hope you can support Brother Briggs and his family, and our brothers from Great Bridge Masonic Lodge No.257. I believe this is a "once in a lifetime" opportunity for our local community.
