As you are in the process of preparing for your Annual District Meetings, there are many questions that are being asked with respect to how to complete this task within the framework of Covid-19 restrictions. The Grand Line and Executive Committee have met and reviewed available options that are within the compliance of our Rules and Regulations and the circumstances as they apply to our ceremonies and responsibilities under Part II, Chapter 2; Regulations for the Administration of Masonic Districts.

Recognizing that Covid-19 has not disappeared and is still present in our jurisdiction we must obey the guidelines from Alberta Health Services. We must recognize that many of our meeting facilities have restrictions placing a cap on seating capacity much lower than what the facilities have been licenced for.
