The three-day reunion is set for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, November 16-17-18. The degrees will be presented in the Cleveland Masonic Center auditorium and in the DeMolay room of the Center.

New degrees that will be presented include the 8th degree, and the 30th degree.

The eighth degree, a Lodge of Perfection degree, is titled the Intendant of the Building.

It teaches that each new honor is meant to be a step toward perfection in the moral code; each a development of a particular duty; and that benevolence and charity are necessary virtues of leadership.

The 30th Consistory degree is titled Grand Elect Knight of Kadosh. This degree sets forth the tests and ceremonies that symbolize the experiences we must undergo in the building of excellence in character.
