As the Mischief Makers of Masonry, we certainly know how to have a good time, but we also know that some of the greatest things we do come from giving back to our community.

❤️🦷 Bringing Special Smiles to Special Kids!

So gather up the kids, invite a Brother or two, and come enjoy a little Halloween mischief for a great cause!

What a wonderful night at Selama Grotto!

Last night was filled with fellowship, charity, laughter, great food, and the chance to celebrate our dear friend, RW John Dragneff. It was a special evening honoring a great Mason, a great leader, and a Brother Prophet whose journey continues to inspire so many.

A huge shoutout to Chef Jelani for going above and beyond. The meal was outstanding, the presentation was incredible, and he truly created some masterpieces for the evening.
And that butter though… absolutely legendary. Not to mention the ladies that decorated, and the hard work bring it all together by so many!!!

Thank you to everyone who came out, supported the event, shared in the fellowship, participated in the evening, and helped make the night such a success. These are the moments that remind us what fraternity is all about: friendship, service, charity, and coming together to celebrate one another.

From all of us at Selama Grotto, thank you for making it a night to remember!

Happy Fourth of July from the Prophets of Selama Grotto! 🇺🇸

Today we celebrate the blessings of freedom, the strength of our nation, and the friendships that make life worth celebrating.

As the "Mischief Makers of Masonry," we believe every great Independence Day should include family, fellowship, laughter, good food... and at least one terrible dad joke.

Here's one for you:
💥 Why did the American flag go to school?
Because it wanted to show its true colors! 🇺🇸😄

Whether you're firing up the grill, enjoying a parade, watching fireworks, or spending time with those you love, we hope your day is filled with smiles and unforgettable memories.

From our Grotto family to yours, have a safe, fun, and patriotic Independence Day!

God Bless America! 🇺🇸🦅🎇
