Rainbow Girls press release
The Gun Barrel City Masonic Youth Rainbow Girls attended the Dallas Area Rainbow Camp on August 16 at the Oak Cliff Masonic Center. Rainbow Camp is a day-long opportunity for further instruction in their ritualistic floorwork as well as fellowship with other Rainbow Girls in the area and around the state.
After a morning of intense study and instruction, the girls were treated to a delicious Chicken Taco Stack lunch and a variety of cookies and cakes for dessert. Table decorations were tropical emblems and clown fishes to reflect the theme of Allison Fraze’s (Grand Worthy Advisor) term this year. Games followed lunch as well as a little more instruction. After attendance and achievement reports of the day, the girls sang “My Rainbow”–their state song–and said their goodbyes, knowing that many will see each soon for other area Rainbow Camps, events, and meetings.

Rainbow Girls participate in a wide array of activities, including leadership training, service projects, competitions, and annual retreats.
