The course will be given in three sessions, if you are an Entered Apprentice you can only sit in on session one, which covers the EA degree. Fellowcrafts can sit through sessions one & two.
There is no charge for the course until the course is completed. So only MM’s who are taking the course are asked to pay $20 for their Certificate of completion and pin. If you are unable to cover the cost I will gladly cover it for you.
Also there will be no charge for the MVD course booklet, looking into my recent emails from the Leadership and Education Committee I found that the Booklet is outdated and no longer relevant so I won’t be ordering them to hand out. The L&E committee have started work on the MDC 2.0, an updated version of the current offering. Fixing errors and spelling to the Content and updating within current Grand Lodge standards. Until that is ready, we will be using a digital copy.
Please reply to this email and let me know if there are any conflicts with the December 3rd date.

This year’s LeadCon as announced at Convention is Friday November 12 to Sunday November 14 in Utica, NY! Our host hotel is the Best Western Adirondack Gateway Hotel. (Utica Masonic Hall 251 Genesee Street Utica, NY 13501)
The hotel features a fitness center, indoor corridors and is recently renovated. Our educational sessions will be held at the Utica Masonic Temple just up the road at 351 N Genesee Street, Utica NY 13502). We are grateful that this year’s LeadCon is generously underwritten by a donation from the New York State Council of Deliberation, AASR.
Due to COVID19 and concerns about large gatherings at the Masonic Care Community we are not able to use their campus at this time.
