December is essentially installation month for Oregon Freemasonry and it certainly applied to Kenton as it installed its new corps of officers for 2023 on Saturday, December 10th, 2022.

WB Jim Emery served as installing master with WBs Dale Palileo and Andrew Gross as installing marshal and installing chaplain, respectively.

While the bulk of the lodge’s officer corps was installed, several officers were not in attendance due to various reasons.

Given that the event was open to the public, attending members brought family and friends along to join in the celebrations. Installation attendees were treated to another sumptuous feast consisting of Haitian cuisine, the brainchild of Brother Valan Primus who initially introduced Haitian staples during the lodge’s November stated meeting. After dinner, the lodge then proceeded with the installation ceremonies, with the usual Kenton revelrie and celebrations following the event.
