Laws and rules of the Fourth Degree require that assembly officers be installed no later than the first regular meeting in October. As with so many other activities, social distancing makes installation more challenging. Our Knights leadership has seen fit to create a virtual ceremonial for the installation of assembly officers. This ceremony is authorized for immediate use where traditional physical ceremonies cannot be performed. This new ceremony retains key elements of the traditional ceremony with appropriate modifications for digital venues.
I see this as an additional opportunity for myself to interact with our assembly officers since I am limited in my ability to attend assembly activities. Send your request and several potential dates to myself (districtmaster@iowakofc.org) so that I may schedule a virtual installation and Q&A with your officers.
Attached is the revised ceremony & a copy showing differences.
