Dear Brethren:
The Grand Master’s 2010 Gala for the Masonic Home of Virginia is less than a month away. That’s right! Illustrious Roy Clark will perform on July 30, 2010, at the Richmond Scottish Rite Center, 4204 Hermitage Road, Richmond Virginia. The dinner and concert is not just for the Masonic family, but for friends, relatives, and guests, as well. It is approximately a $100 value for half the price. Where else can you get a fine dinner and professional entertainment so reasonable? This may well be a once in a lifetime event for Virginia Freemasonry. The outcome of this fundraiser will be the direct results of your effort.
Sponsorships purchased for this event are 100% tax-deductible and will include a special souvenir to remember the event.
The sponsorships of the Grand Master's 2010 Gala will be available at four levels:
Gold Page — $300;
Silver Page — $200;
White Page — $100; and
Half White Page — $65.
