From the Supreme Worthy Advisor:
Dear Supreme Family.
I want you to be the first to know, and please feel free to share with your jurisdiction, that given our COVID-19 pandemic situation, Supreme Assembly 2020 will be held virtually this summer.
The Nevada 2020 Committee has agonized over the potential of this decision since March 17, hoping and praying our situation would not be as it is now, but, it is. The Peppermill has acknowledged they cannot host us at this time and has released us from our contract and all penalties. Many of you have expressed concerns about your own ability to travel as well as the potential of an additional 14 day quarantine upon your return home, as well as concerns about traveling with your girls, housing girls together, social distancing, flights, costs with parents who have been out of work for months, etc. These are the same concerns we are hearing throughout our Rainbow world regarding Grand Assemblies.
My heart breaks for our newly appointed Acting Supreme Officers, but please assure them “I have a plan” and we will incorporate them, in their new dresses, in every way possible in July.
There is much information to be released over the course of the next few days, but it is important to share this now as the Peppermill will begin cancelling our rooms and will send guests an email notification of that cancellation beginning tomorrow. We will also be working with Cvent to have registration, meals, etc., refunded, AND will establish the new registration fee and whatever other items (such as the Supreme t-shirt, proceedings, etc.) will be available. We will establish a new registration date, etc.
I appreciate each of you who have joined us in prayerful support and in your patience as we approach this new adventure.
Rainbow Love,
Joanie Jacka,
Supreme Worthy Advisor, 2018-2020
