The Peachtree City Chapter of the Order of DeMolay, sponsored by East Point Lodge #288, F. & A.M., will hold its first installation of officers on Sunday, September 10 at 2 p.m. at the Peachtree City Masonic Center, 201 Whitlock Place, Peachtree City.

This public ceremony is a milestone in the growth and development of the new Chapter and an opportunity to introduce interested young men and their parents to the principles of the Order. 

DeMolay, an international organization for young men age 12 (who have completed the 7th 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.  Famous Senior DeMolays include: President Bill Clinton, Walt Disney, Gary Collins, John Wayne, Walter Cronkite, Fran Tarkenton, astronauts, U.S. senators, governors, business leaders and successful community minded citizens.

Questions about the ceremony, the Chapter, or DeMolay, in general, may be directed to Skip Mason, chapter advisor, at 770-487-6482.
