Mom Cindy Linder

 

Maryland DeMolay Mourns the loss of a beloved Advisor and MOM of Catonsville-Palestine Chapter
It is with deep sadness and regret that we announce the passing of Mom Cindy Linder after her battle with liver failure.  Mom Linder was a strong force in the Chapter as well as the State. She will be sorely missed. We look now to comfort, help and support Dad Lee, Adam and Matt as they go through this moment of great sadness and transition in their lives. May God's loving grace bring happiness where there is sorrow and peace where there is unrest.

In memory of Mom Linder, all Maryland DeMolay Chapters are asked to place a White flower on their altars.

Dad Sam Vincent A Senior DeMolay, Chevalier, Advisor of many years and avid support of DeMolay on MD's Eastern Shore is killed in a car accident on Rt. 50
With deep regret we announce the passing of a long time advisor, Senior DeMolay, PMC, Past Grand Commander of the Maryland Court of Chevaliers.  Dad Sam Vincent was killed in a car accident on US Rt.50 near Pittsville on Maryland's Eastern Shore.  We will miss his company and good humor and wit that he shared with us at every Conclave during the Chevalier vs. DeMolay Softball games.  Dad Vincent was also a extremely lauded State's Attorney who's office had just won accolades from the US Attorneys Office.  More on the story
 
Spring Degree Class
Chapters from all over the state came out for a record attendance and initiation in recent years.  We congratulate all the newly initiated members and chapters on such a successful turnout.
Ron Shaver Tournament
The first annual Dad Ron Shaver ritual tournament was quite a success with a well rounded tournament in many of the competition ceremonies offered.  From Magnificent 7 (one of Dad Shaver's favorites) to DeMolay degree to Chevalier Investiture all chapters competitors in attendance showed great potential and promise.
First Annual Maryland DeMolay and Chevaliers Billiards Tournament
The Maryland DeMolay Court of Chevaliers held and sponsored their first ever billiards tournament after the SMC's Spring degree class in Frederick Maryland at All Star Billiards.  We definitely had some pool sharks in attendance and all were racking them in.  The Chev's treated everyone to free sodas and a few tried the hall's great burgers and fries (mmm old bay).  We even got some old faces out for a great times and comradeship amongst DeMolays and Chevaliers alike.  The Chev's look forward to making this a tradition and doing it again next year.  Congratulations to the tournament winners, The trophies will be awarded at the Conclave Banquet.
