Brothers,

I hope this note finds you and all the Brothers in your Valley well. It is my great pleasure to officially inform you that your Valley has distinguished itself by achieving VMAP recognition for the year 2024.

This accomplishment is truly remarkable. Your Valley is one of 70 out of 110 participating Valleys that was able to move the needle and meet its goals in recruitment, restoration or retention. On behalf of every Scottish Rite Mason, I sincerely thank you and your brothers for your dedicated efforts and commitment to excellence.

The 2024 date plate for your Valley’s VMAP plaque is currently being printed and will be mailed to your Valley shortly, along with an official letter of congratulations.

VMAP 2025 is already underway, and our Q1 VMAP Zoom meeting is scheduled for April 16th. You can find the necessary links below.

Thank you once again for all that you do for Scottish Rite Freemasonry. Here's to continued success in VMAP 2025!

All the very Best & Fraternally,

W.G. Sizemore II, 33°, GC
Rear Admiral, U.S. Navy (Retired)
