Happy Passover!
Chag Sameach! The Valley of Boston hopes that all of our Jewish Brothers had a Happy Passover throughout the festival last week. Passover, like all Jewish holidays, is celebrated according to dates in its lunar calendar. Specifically, it begins at sundown on 15 Nisan and ends at nightfall on 22 Nisan. Normally this will correspond with the first full moon after the Vernal Equinox, which was set mathematically to ensure the holiday marks the beginning of Spring. However, the date was originally related to the ripeness of the Spring barley crop.
Spring Class Parking and Traffic
Those attending the Spring Class should be prepared to take longer to get into Grand Lodge because of activities happening in and around the area. The Millenium Place Parking Garage, next door to Grand Lodge, has reduced capacity due to ongoing maintenance. It may take more time than usual to find a self-parking spot, or you may need to valet your car.
Schedule for the Spring Class
The Spring Class is finally here! Doors open at 6:30 a.m. for registration with breakfast simultaneously happening in the Grand Master’s Dining Room. The schedule for the day is as follows:
Post for Rose Croix
