April 2026
Well, here we are. Springtime is here for sure. We, in San Diego, have certainly been
feeling the springtime weather – mild, mostly sunny weather with temperatures great for
outdoor activities. Come for a visit. The Scottish Rite Valley of San Diego welcomes you
to our city and our website.
Our April Stated Meeting on Wednesday, April 1st celebrates the Extinguishing of the Lights Ceremony. The following Sunday morning, April 5th , we celebrate the Relighting of the Lights Ceremony. The officers of the Chapter of Rose Croix, together with the stage/lighting crew have been laboring hard to put on these wonderful events.
​
On April 29th , we sponsor our Annual Masonic Information Night. This is where you can invite any prospective Mason and his spouse to join us for dinner and an informative presentation about our fraternity. This is our way of helping “feed” our blue lodges with candidates. Hopefully, these candidates become new Masons and eventually, new Scottish Rite Masons.
Please make your reservations now through this website or by calling the office. Do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions.

Fraternally,
