Although less than two years old, the Peachtree City Chapter Order of DeMolay came away from the annual state conclave of the Associated DeMolay Chapters of Georgia with more accolades than any other chapter. In addition to winning the award for Most Improved Chapter, they received the highest Gold level award for Program Planning and Execution and the Silver level award overall as a Chapter of Excellence. The chapter received an award for having the highest percentage of members in attendance and their Parent's Club won first place in the competition for the best scrapbook of the preceding year's activities.

In addition, the current Chapter Master Councilor, Michael Benedetti, was elected to the third highest office in the State Association, State Junior Councilor and the Chapter Sweetheart, Miss Khrystle Rader, was elected State Sweetheart.

DeMolay, an international organization for young men age 12 (and completed the seventh grade) to 21, utilizes local chapters as a “laboratory” setting for members to learn leadership skills, public speaking, time management and financial management. In addition to these skills DeMolay offers an expansive social and athletic program.

DeMolay chapters also work to become community assets through programs of community service. Each year, thousands of community service projects are undertaken by DeMolay chapters throughout the world.

Over 30,000 young men in the United States actively participate in DeMolay chapters today and well over one million men have benefited from the DeMolay experience since it was founded in 1919.
