In 1992, each police department in the County of San Diego, the Sheriff’s Department, the Harbor Police, and the Highway Patrol were first invited to nominate a candidate for the title of the Scottish Rite’s Officer of the Year. The annual event has grown to include the police departments of the San Diego Unified School District as well as several college district departments.  A committee of Scottish Rite members with law enforcement backgrounds selects our Officer of Year from that pool of candidates based on outstanding accomplishments in the performance of duties during the past year. This event is one of our most popular because it attracts the attendance of civic officials and leading members of the community in addition to those honored and their superiors.

​

Law Enforcement Recognition Night is an annual event in July. We welcome our Law Enforcement partners, nominees, the Masonic community, and the general public to make a reservation! We are proud of our relationship with our Law Enforcement professionals.

 

Help us recognize their contribution to our cities and communities.
