Masons for the men
Eastern Star for the ladies
DeMolay for boys 13-21
Jobs Daughters for girls 13-? - for the girls with Masonic ancestory
Rainbow for Girls for girls 12-? - for the girls without Masonic ancestory (though I knew many Rainbow girls WITH Masonic family members).
Shriners are for men, but I am not sure what the exact relationship was with Masonry

I was a very active member of DeMolay for many years. I was knighted, so you can call me Sir Kev.

There are different "paths" one can follow within Masonry if one chooses Scottish Rite and York Rite are the big ones, I believe. There are also related organizations within Masonry - sort of like clubs for masons. Shriners (Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine) is one, Eastern Star (which accepts men and women as members) is another.

This is about all I know, based on the placemats at the local masonic center. Because of school I haven't been too involved.

The photos are really great. They just don't make grave markers the way they used to.

Great photos! I want to visit now.

Well, I want to go back, too!

BTW, I misspoke, the Greek Place is Papa Cristos and I think would be well worth a second visit too. Somehow or other, I did not have any baklava, what's wrong with that picture?

I'm past Honored Queen of Bethel #46 (Job's Daughters) - you can just call me Your Higness. ;)

I'm not sure what the max age limit was for Job's. Once you have been Queen then you're not really an active member anymore. There weren't any girls over 18 that I reacall though. My mom is in Eastern Star.
