A second-generation Mason, Most Worshipful Brother John Edward Trauner was raised a Master Mason in Madison Lodge No. 23 in Grass Valley on March 25, 1997. He served as Master of the lodge in 2001. In 2006, Madison Lodge presented him with the Hiram Award for his continued and distinguished service to the lodge. He is also a member of Nevada Lodge No. 13 in Nevada City.

Brother Trauner has served the Grand Lodge of California as an inspector and as assistant grand lecturer. He was inspector for five years and was appointed assistant grand lecturer of Division II in 2014. Brother Trauner served on the ritual committee and has served on all the Grand Lodge constitutional boards.

In addition to this service, Brother Trauner is active in the concordant and appendant bodies. In 2002, he received the York Rite degrees in Nevada Chapter No. 6. Royal Arch Masons, Nevada Council No. 62 Cryptic Masons, and Nevada Commandery No. 6 Knights Templar. He served as the presiding officer in all three of these bodies. In 2012, he served as the grand bible bearer of the Grand Council of Cryptic Masons of California. He received the 32° “KCCH” (Knight Commander Court of Honor) in the Scottish Rite Valley of Sacramento. He is also a member of the Knights York Cross of Honor, a past puissant sovereign of the Cross and Crown Conclave of the Red Cross of Constantine, the York Rite Sovereign College of North America, the Holy Royal Arch Knight Templar Priests, and the Allied Masonic Degrees. He is also a member of the Sacramento Chapter of the National Sojourners, and a chapter advisor for Northstar Chapter of DeMolay.

Brother Trauner studied business administration at Sierra College in Grass Valley and California State University–Chico. In 1976, he joined the Nevada County Sheriff’s Department beginning a 31-year career in law enforcement. He worked in all aspects and ranks of the Sheriff’s Department. He was selected to attend the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Virginia. In 1996, he was promoted to assistant sheriff and then to undersheriff in 1999. He retired from the Sheriff’s Department in 2007. He continued to work part-time for Nevada County in various capacities until 2011. In his final assignment, Trauner served as the assistant assessor during a year of transition within that office.

A fifth-generation rancher, Trauner and his wife, Dana, live in Rough and Ready, a small township located near Grass Valley in the heart of the Mother Lode. They have four adult children and five granddaughters.

ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY FIRST ANNUAL COMMUNICATION

Saturday Morning, October 10, 2020

The 171st Annual Communication of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California was called to order by Grand Master John E. Trauner on Saturday, October 10, 2020. The Grand Master remarked that due to the pandemic the Annual Communication was held in a virtual format, and as such it would take place without Masonic communication and with business kept to a minimum.

Reception of the Past Grand Masters

The grand master welcomed the Brethren and directed the grand secretary to read the roster of living past grand masters of the Grand Lodge of California. The grand master asked the Brethren to join him in welcoming our past grand masters with a round of applause. The grand master then directed the grand secretary to send to each absent past grand master the usual letter of greeting from the grand lodge.

Roll Call

The grand secretary was asked to call the roll of Grand Lodge officers, past grand masters, and past grand officers, and to ascertain if a constitutional number were present to convene the Grand Lodge of California. The following are the names of all living past grand masters and past grand officers as read by the grand secretary:

Memorial Service

The grand master noted that Very Reverend Bayani D. Rico, Grand Chaplain, recorded his memorial service on video which was available on the website. His remarks were as follows:

Death is often personified as the Grim Tyrant who causes the victim’s death by coming to collect that person’s soul. But among Masons, “Kind Messenger” is the preferred way to regard death, as being sent to translate us from this imperfect to that perfect, glorious, Celestial Lodge above where our Supreme Grand Master forever presides.

In whatever way death is personified, death presents itself in various stages of our earthly pilgrimage and always as a constant reminder of the uncertainty of human life. It comes unannounced; for some, just as life is at its budding stage. For others, when life is blooming in all its beauty. And still, for others, at the threshold of their wilting.

But regardless when those unwelcomed visits are made, each event marks the severing of the proverbial thread that binds humans to the very earth they move around. And when those visits are made, questions that are tainted with pain, with anguish, with even defeat, begin to be asked, often as expressions of our grief.

“What can I do now? Why does it have to happen now?” “Where did I go wrong? What more could I have done?” Any of these questions could be your question or it could be that of a father of young children whose mother, a nurse, died of COVID-19 while working as a front-liner at their local hospital.

Or it could be from a widower, with his dream of an exciting retirement, suddenly vanishing in thin air.

These are questions we can easily relate to, having at one time or another experienced a loss of a loved one. And we know that their demise even breeds questions that could fall quite easily under the umbrella of theodicy, questioning the presence or the absence or even the involvement of God. Such is the case when someone asks: “Why, Lord? Where were you when I needed you most?” How could you let this happen to me?”

Amidst our brokenness, amidst our continued search for answers, our initial consolation lies in words of comfort, in the mutual exchange of condo-lences and in tokens of sympathy. We also reach out to others with a renewed sense of compassion as we try to understand something that for ages had been unanswered. When we face things that seem not to make sense, we begin to wonder if anything makes any sense after all.

But the simple truth remains that our finiteness precludes our ability to find the answer, even if we were to put too high of a value on human under-standing. It is doubly hurting that no matter how profound our cerebral effort is, our grief remains unsettled.

Perhaps, then, a listening heart might be a better tool to make use of in accomplishing what is set before us.


And so, Brethren, I bid you, with your listening hearts, to join me as we call to remembrance and pray for those who, in this past year, have dropped their working tools and are now in the loving embrace of their heavenly Father.

Let us pray. O God of grace and glory, we remember before you this day, our dearly departed. We thank you for giving them to us to know and to love as brothers in our gentle Craft and as companions on our earthly pilgrimage. We thank them for the influence that their examples had on our fraternity and in our lives.

Loving Lord, in your boundless compassion, we pray that you console us who continue to mourn their passing away. Give us faith to see in death the gate of eternal life, so that in quiet confidence, we may continue our course on earth, until, by your call, we are reunited with those who have gone before.

In thy most loving Name, we pray. Amen.

The following were present:

Ms. Denise Jow . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Grand Guardian Job’s Daughters International, California

At the conclusion of the introductions, the grand master greeted the youth orders, and in particular Mr. Brett Grimm, a Past Jurisdiction Master Councilor for DeMolay International in Northern California, who was elected in June as the 54th International Master Councilor for DeMolay International.

The grand master then shared a video conversation he had with the youth leaders of the Masonic youth orders about the challenges they faced as a result of Covid-19, and how they rose to the challenge of leadership.


Grand Master’s Youth Support Award

The grand master announced that four brothers had been selected to receive the Grand Master’s Youth Support Award to recognize their outstanding con-tribution to the Masonic youth orders. The grand master then called upon the adult leaders of the Masonic youth orders, to assist him in presenting the Grand Master’s Youth Support Award to the following honorees:

WILLIAM M. FERRELL

William M. Ferrell is a longtime champion of several Masonic bodies, particularly Job’s Daughters. A 40-year Master Mason, Mr. Ferrell is a past master of Crow Canyon Lodge No. 551 in Castro Valley, where in 1999 he received the Hiram Award. He is also a member of the Oakland Scottish Rite, Aahmes Shrine in Livermore, and the Eastern Star.

For more than 30 years, Mr. Ferrell has been active with Job’s Daughters, which both his daughters and granddaughters were members of. From 2007 until 2017, and again in 2020, he served as associate bethel guardian for Bethel No. 1 in Dublin. Today, he is also a promoter for goodwill for Bethel No. 326 in Chico, and in 2012, he served the grand guardian council as grand outer guard.

His knowledge, insight, and experience have been greatly appreciated by generations of bethel daughters, and his dedication to the order has instilled Masonic values in those who know him.

GREGORY J. STILLE

Greg J. Stille is an example of a Mason whose commitment is evident in all that he does. He truly lives out the words, “I Serve.”

Bro. Stille received his degrees at Woodland Lodge No. 81 in 2001, where he served as junior deacon, senior steward, and marshal, as well as sitting on the Youth Orders Committee from 2008–2010. He has also been a tireless advo-cate for California Rainbow, for which he is currently serving his second term as chairman on the grand executive committee. In 2008, he was named state Rainbow dad. Despite having moved to Hawaii with his wife, Suzy, Bro. Stille continues to lead and support all key events for California Rainbow.

Through his business acumen, Bro. Stille has helped the organization con-tinue its work in a fiscally responsible manner; through his mentorship, he has helped influence those around him to strive for excellence.

HARRY A. THOMAS

Harry A. Thomas has given a lifetime of service to DeMolay. For more than 30 years, Bro. Thomas has served DeMolay at every level: chapter, league, and jurisdiction.

Bro. Thomas is a past master of Mill Valley Lodge No. 356 and a senior DeMolay, having first joined the order at Pacific Grove Chapter in 1956. His


service to DeMolay has been recognized many times: He is a chevalier, received the Cross of Honor, and in 1996, was awarded the Guild of the Leather Apron as advisor of the year. He has also received the highest honor available to a DeMolay, the Legion of Honor. He served as the 2006 dean of the Southern California preceptory, and in 2012 became an active member of the International Supreme Council. After a brief retirement, Dad Thomas returned to serve as highland league administrator for the past two years. Even when he is not serving in an official position, however, he has been willing to help whenever called upon.

ANDREW J. FORD

Andrew Judson Ford Jr. has been a dedicated supporter of the Order of DeMolay for many years. He was first initiated into the Los Altos Chapter in 1971; he received the Degree of Chevalier in 1980, the same year he was raised at Liberty Masonic Lodge No. 299.

Since 2009, Dad Ford has been a DeMolay advisor, including the past six years for the Santa Clara Chapter, helping guide and train the youth leadership. Under his guidance, the chapter is growing and its leaders succeeding. For the past three years, he has also served as a staff member for the Pacific Coast DeMolay Leadership Conference. In 2018, he was invested with the DeMolay Legion of Honor for his adult service the order and the community.

The grand master congratulated the recipients of the award, and led the audience in a round of applause.

Grand Master’s Mason of the Year Award

The grand master announced that at the beginning of his term he established the Grand Master’s Mason of the Year Award, which recognizes two Masons annually, one from Northern California, and one from Southern California, for their service to the craft.

He then directed the grand secretary to read the names and biographies of the brothers who had been selected to receive the Grand Master’s Mason of the Year Award.

RAYMOND E. FOSTER

Raymond E. Foster has worn many hats for San Dimas Lodge No. 428, but he is perhaps best described as a mentor and a leader. Whatever role he has served in, Foster has brought the same passion and enthusiasm for improving his lodge and the lives of its members.

In 2015, Brother Foster served as worshipful master of the lodge, during which he helped revitalize the lodge endowment fund and spearheaded the adoption of a board of trustees. Since then, he has continued to serve officers’ roles while simultaneously mentoring new members to fill those positions. As an officers’ coach, he has developed a reputation as an invaluable resource for infor-mation and history on the ritual, leading rehearsals that are both challenging


and informative. His lectures on various Masonic educational themes are so well regarded that he has been asked to delivery many to neighboring lodges and during District Officers’ School of Instruction events. He has also helped host social gatherings with prospective members; served as a lodge liaison to the city council, which he reports lodge activities to; and helped organize San Dimas No. 428’s participation in the city’s Independence Day parade. During the past year, Brother Foster also organized a fundraising event to raise funds for a fellow lodge member dealing with leukemia. Partnering with not only the lodge but also the local chamber of commerce, city council, and Rotary, the resulting chili feed raised more than $12,000; testament to his boundless dedication to the lodge.

HARWOOD T. NELSON

The contributions of Brother Harwood T. “Woody” Nelson Harwood to Table Mountain Lodge No. 124 can perhaps be best encapsulated in the fact that fol-lowing the harrowing Camp Fire in 2018, the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in state history, Table Mountain Lodge never missed a lodge meeting.

Brother Nelson, as lodge master, played an integral role in keeping Masonry alive in his community. During and particularly following the fire, he worked to ensure the lodge was a resource for not only its members, but for the entire community. He coordinated with other leaders to make the lodge parking lot available for use as a staging area during clean-up efforts. He worked with the members of Chico-Leland Stanford Lodge No. 111 to hold stated meetings in their lodge hall in the immediate aftermath of the fire. And he worked tirelessly with the hall board and various community agencies to lead repairs on the his-toric lodge hall in Paradise. That work culminated, just nine months after the fire, when the lodge reopened its doors, an event celebrated with a ribbon cutting and attended by representatives of the city and county governments, firefighting agencies and other first responders, and the Grand Lodge of California.

As a guardian of not only his lodge’s financial health but its fraternal health as well, Harwood has served as an inspiration and an example of what hap-pens when the tenets of Freemasonry are put to work in our lodges and our communities.

Grand Master’s Lifetime Achievement Award

The grand master recounted that in 1978, Grand Master Donald B. McCaw presented the first Mason of the Year award on behalf of the Grand Lodge of California to Rabbi Edgar Magnin. Subsequent grand masters have presented the award to 10 others. In presenting this award, the grand master noted that several of his predecessors have had to explain that the name of the award is a misnomer. In each case, the award was based on lifetime contributions and not a single Masonic year; and further, the award had not been presented every year.

In order to properly name this prestigious award, the Grand Master


established the Grand Master’s Lifetime Achievement Award, and bestowed it upon the 11 previous recipients of the Mason of the Year Award. The grand master remarked that when future grand masters wish to recognize a brother for his cumulative service and leadership to Freemasonry and the world, they may use the Grand Master’s Lifetime Achievement Award to do so. The Grand Master then presented the 12th Grand Master’s Lifetime Achievement Award to Most Worshipful Brother John L. Cooper III.

The grand master directed the grand secretary to read a brief biography of the recipient.

JOHN L. COOPER III

For more than 50 years, John L. Cooper III has made an impact on California Freemasonry—at every level and in every corner of the state. He began his association with Freemasonry in 1958 when he was initiated into the Order of DeMolay in Fullerton, California. He was raised a Master Mason in Azure Lodge No. 533 at Fullerton and later served as Master of James A. Foshay No. 641 in 1969, which is now Culver City Foshay Lodge No. 467. He was Master of Harmony No. 164 in 2018, and a few weeks ago, he became the inaugural master of Columbia Historic Lodge, U.D. Additionally, he holds lifetime memberships with Burlingame No. 400, Columbia Brotherhood No. 370, Consuelo No. 325, Eureka No. 16, and Phoenix No. 144. In 1992, he was given the Hiram Award from Culver City-Foshay No. 467.

His Masonic involvement extends to many other Masonic bodies: He is a 33° Scottish Rite Mason, a Knight of the York Grand Cross of Honor, and a member of the Shrine. He is also an honorary member of the International Supreme Council of the Order of DeMolay, which honored him with the Degree of Chevalier.

In 1991, Most Worshipful Brother Cooper was elected grand secretary of our grand lodge and he served in that position until he retired in 2008. During his tenure, he helped bring a sharp focus on Masonic education in this grand lodge, organizing the first evolution of the annual Masonic Symposium. He participated in the process of mutual recognition with the Prince Hall Grand Lodge of California. He opened the door to a new world of technology for us, and help to build upon the strong reputation of the Grand Lodge of California serving as president of the Conference of Grand Secretaries of North America.

In 2013, he was elected the 148th Grand Master of Masons in California. As grand master he reminded us that Freemasonry could be our moral compass and that the principles of the Order can and should guide our every action. He created even more education programs and led the restoration of the historic Masonic hall and museum in the Columbia State Park. His leadership was rec-ognized when he was elected chairman of the Conference of Grand Masters of Masons in North America.

Since leaving office as grand master, Most Worshipful Brother Cooper’s work in the lodge has only increased. He holds office in multiple lodges and


selflessly provides wise counsel to his brothers. He has been a prolific writer and his writings will inspire generations of new Masons for centuries. He has served as president of the Philalethes Society, America’s oldest Masonic research organization, adding to his previous service as master of the Northern California Research Lodge (1996, 2003), the Golden Compasses Research Lodge (2019), and the Southern California Research Lodge (1972).

John has been an active volunteer in his church for decades. A longtime public-school teacher, administrator and superintendent, John lives with his wife Heather in Lincoln. They have five adult children and seven grandchildren.

The grand master then asked for Most Worshipful Brother Cooper to share his remarks, which were:

It is with humility that I accept this important—a very much undeserved —honor today. Knowing the accomplishments of those who have been previ-ously honored with this distinction, I am humbled by you for including me on this list of distinguished Masons. Freemasonry is a life-changing experience for those who truly understand what is expected of us as Masons, and the greatest recognition of all is the satisfaction of having, in the words of one of our degrees, “faithfully discharged my duty to the Craft.” The greatest reward that we can obtain in Freemasonry is the knowledge that we have performed that duty so that others may live their lives in Freemasonry to the fullest extent possible. Thank you, most worshipful, for this signal honor!

The grand master congratulated Most Worshipful Brother Cooper for his lifetime of dedication, loyalty and devotion to our gentle craft, and led the audience in a round of applause to recognize the recipient.

The grand master then gave his closing remarks and expressed his honor and privilege at having been given the opportunity to serve the Craft as grand master.

Appendix A


GRAND MASTER’S MESSAGE

Brethren,

The year 2020 will be remembered as one the most challenging years in the history of the State of California. The COVID-19 pandemic brought the state, and indeed the world, to a standstill as we’ve tried to slow the spread of the virus and save as many lives as possible. The historic fires in California exacerbated the impact of the virus, forcing many Californians to evacuate their homes and destroying thousands of them, while others became further homebound by the dangerous air quality resulting from the fires.

These natural disasters have affected our beloved fraternity in ways we never would have imagined. For nearly seven months now, we’ve been unable to practice Masonry in the way we have for over 300 years. There have been no stated meetings, no degrees, or social activities. Our work has been confined to what we can do together online and what we can do to help our communities without putting ourselves and others at risk.

When I spoke of golden opportunities at my installation as grand master last year, I never thought we would be confronted with such historic and widespread challenges. But I have been overwhelmed by the way California Masons have responded. More than ever before—I am- proud to be a Mason.

I am proud to be a Mason. I asked you to repeat those seven words with me at my installation. You have shown they are, in fact, ingrained in your collective hearts, thank you.

The first sign of our strength was demonstrated in the months before the pandemic. Together we accomplished many important events and achieved many of my priorities and goals.

Between October 20th and March 12th, our Grand Family accomplished much. I attended just under 100 events up and down our great state. I was honored to performed four Diamond Jubilee 75 year pin ceremonies on our most senior brothers, ceremonies that highlight any grand master’s year. Also, I was invited to perform a Golden Veterans Award for brother Mickey Ganitch on the hanger deck of the USS Hornet, a true WWII hero and Pearl Harbor survivor;an event attended by over 400 brothers and friends.

We attended 11 lodge anniversaries, eight receptions and performed six grand lodge openings from Eureka in the North to Redlands in the south. In addition, we were able to perform four cornerstone ceremonies. We consti-tuted six new lodges and I was honored to perform 18 lodge installations. I


was also honored to represent our grand lodge at the annual National Grand Lodge of France’s annual communication. I only wish we could have finished our very robust and event-filled calendar before the COVID crises descended upon us. And yet there was still more that we did. With COVID upon us, we quickly transitioned to online platforms like zoom and zoom-like venues. Having attended scores of zoom meetings, I was pleased to be invited to many lodges I probably would not have had a chance to attend with my regular schedule had the pandemic not arrived. We were able to have online receptions and festive boards. We were also able to institute three brand new lodges, and one historic lodge. It was different type on masonry, but we all made it work and work well.

As you know, I was born and raised in the Mother Lode, a swath of land 300 miles long and 50 miles wide in the mountains and foothills of the Sierra Nevada where the vast majority of California gold was discovered.

One of our goals this year was to highlight Freemasonry in the Mother Lode, which was, at least in part, the origin of our grand lodge. We produced a 12-minute video titled Our Golden Opportunity to tell the story of the miner Freemasons who came from far and wide to find opportunity in the gold-rich hills of California. While the gold rush came and went, these brothers laid the foundation of Freemasonry in this state and we should ever remember and honor their leadership and devotion to the craft. I appreciate the dedication of our brothers at the Masonic Life Initiative of division 8 who created the video, and specifically brothers Walter McCurry, Jim Blum, Michael Strader, Drew Gilky, Jack Rose, Dennis Brandt, John Channon, Herb Pompey, Johnny Wells, Nazer Hadidian, and Frank Lee.

Next, we published Masonic Gold, a stunning 164-page coffee table book chronicling the history and development of the 20 Masonic lodges now oper-ating within the Mother Lode. Spanning more than a century and a half from the Gold Rush through the present day, Masonic Gold offers unique insight into the crucial role the fraternity played in the formation of the Golden State—and continues to play today. Many Masons quickly purchased all the copies of the first and second runs of the book. Now these books are held in the private libraries and on the bedside tables of hundreds of brothers and I hope they will be passed down to generations to come. My heartfelt thanks to the grand lodge team who helped make this happen including our Grand Secretary, Allan Casalou, and the entire communications team of Emily Limon, Ian Stewart, Pete Ivey, Lillian Gardner, Justin Japitana, and Satyam Shrestha.

I instituted the Sister Lodge Program to encourage urban and rural lodges to establish a connection, to visit each other, and learn how their lodges are different and similar. Keeping the fraternity united and connected is vital to our ability to make progress in the future. For an example, here in the north, California Lodge No. 1 in San Francisco and Nevada Lodge No. 13 in Nevada City are now Sister Lodges. As time goes by, these two lodges will form an important and meaningful bond. They will learn from each other and make true friendships that would not have been possible otherwise. Even though


this program was halted by the pandemic, I hope lodge leaders will continue to build relationships with other lodges in different areas and build strength in our unity and mutual understanding.

We celebrated two important anniversaries in 2020. First was the 100th Anniversary of Job’s Daughters International, which was founded by Mother Mick in Omaha, Nebraska in 1920. To commemorate this important occasion, we published a special edition of the California Freemason magazine exploring the special relationship between dads and daughters, including a feature spread on the role Job’s Daughters has played in the positive development of girls for over a century. I enjoyed the stories of our brothers with daughters and my three daughters loved it. In my humble opinion, it was one of the best issues of the magazine ever!

We also celebrated the 100th Anniversary of the annual observance of Public Schools Month. Against the backdrop of a critical teacher shortage, school closures, and inadequate school funding, Grand Master Charles A. Adams proclaimed that during the week of September 27, 1920, public meetings would be held in every Masonic lodge in California to discuss the “question of the public schools.” In addition to raising the issue within the membership of the fraternity, lodges were encouraged to invite educators to come speak about the state of their schools and the problems they were confronting. Support of public education remains a bedrock principle of the fraternity. And while the times have changed, challenges still remain for California schools and the children they serve. The need to support public education might never end, and so long as public schools have needs, California Freemasons will be their strongest supporters.

To demonstrate our commitment in this centennial year of the observance, I commissioned a bust of Grand Master Adams to remind future generations how important he was to this cause and to make it known that Freemasonry honors those who stand up for free public education. The bust was sculpted by Lake County artist, Paula Slater, and is on display here at the Memorial Temple in San Francisco.

While the several Public Schools Month programs planned for April were postponed due to the pandemic, we were able to attend the California Teacher of the Year event in Sacramento in February. I am also happy to report we were able to complete four public school virtual events in the last weeks of September. In order to honor exemplary teachers during this observance, my wife, Dana, established the Golden Apple Award to recognize teachers selected by their peers who had shown extraordinary devotion to the children they serve. She presented the Golden Apple Award and a check to each for $ 500 during the virtual celebrations.

I strongly believe that just as many of us have renewed our wedding vows, so should we as Masons renew our obligations. We each should stop and take a moment to reflect upon why we are and continue to be Masonic brothers. This year, I encouraged lodge masters at least once during their term to call


for a complete roll call of every brother in the lodge. With the assistance of our Junior Grand Warden, Right Worshipful Brother Randy Brill, we published the Ceremony of Obligation Renewal so that we can remind ourselves why we are brothers, and so that perhaps, some of the disagreements we have had in the past will be replaced by genuine brotherly love and affection. I hope you take advantage of this important new ceremony and see that it is regularly conducted in your lodge.

Recognizing our brothers for their exemplary conduct, achievements, and contributions to Freemasonry and our communities is one of the best privileges of being grand master. This year I renamed the Grand Lodge Mason of the Year Award. This award was established over 40 years ago to recognize some of our most accomplished and revered brothers. Over these past four decades, eleven brothers have been honored with this distinction. Past grand masters have commented over the years that the award name was really a misnomer. It was never intended as an annual award, but rather it was always awarded for a lifetime of good work. Knowing that, I changed the award’s name to the Grand Master’s Lifetime Achievement Award, and I directed that all past recipients of the previous Grand Lodge Mason of the Year Award be the first recipients of the new award and that all living recipients be notified of such. This has been accomplished and tomorrow I will be honored to name the 12th recipient of this prestigious award.

In order to recognize brothers on an annual basis for their excellent contri-butions and leadership during a given year, I also established the Grand Master’s Mason of the Year Award. I asked each inspector to nominate a brother from their district who has proven worthy of such recognition. The inspectors sub-mitted their nominations to their assistant grand lecturers, who in turn selected a finalist from their division. The executive committee and I chose one Mason of the Year from Southern California and one from Northern California and I will be pleased to announce those recipients at the public ceremonies tomorrow.

Probably one of the most important accomplishments of the final year of our 2020 plan was the implementation of the Restoration Program. In 2019, we surveyed thousands of brothers who had been suspended for non-payment of dues. More than two-thirds of them didn’t even know they had been suspended. A vast majority of them said they had simply lost contact with their lodge. Three out of four said they would seek restoration if given the opportunity. So, we launched the Restoration Program to reconnect them with their lodges and restore them to good standing. Nearly 130 lodges adopted the resolution to participate in the program by March. From just those lodges, over 1,100 brothers were restored to good standing. The Grand Secretary reported that, were it not for our inability to confer degrees and affiliate new members during the last quarter of the period ending June 30, 2020, this restoration program would have helped make 2020 the first year to record overall membership gains since 1964. Who knows what could have been achieved if the pandemic had not stymied this program, but I could not be more pleased with the results we have achieved.


In early January 2020, the World Health Organization announced the presence of a new virus under the name COVID-19. By the end of the month, cases were confirmed around the world, including a case in California. Over the next six weeks the virus demonstrated rapid transmission and the potential to cause serious illness and death, especially among the elderly and those with underlying health conditions. By mid-March, COVID-19 had become a major health crisis. In order to prevent the spread of the virus and protect our brethren and their families, I issued a directive on March 18, 2020, prohibiting all in-per-son Masonic meetings and events until further notice; the hardest decision I have had to make as grand master. The next day, California’s governor issued a stay-at-home order requiring all individuals living in the state to remain in their place of residence, except for limited permitted work, local shopping, and a few other permitted activities.

Understanding that lodges would need to perform certain duties in order to maintain their buildings and their standing in the community, I made a decision authorizing the elected lodge leaders to confer electronically to approve the payment of bills that could not be reasonably deferred. This authority included the approval and distribution of charity to Masons, their widows and families, and to support their community.

By summer, the pandemic was still growing worse and not getting better as we might have wished and hoped for. When it became clear that the pandemic would persist past June 30, I approved the grand secretary’s proposal to alter the per capita timeline so that lodges would have until mid-September to suspend members for non-payment of dues. Because stated meetings were not permitted in September, I authorized lodge masters to declare a member suspended if the member had received the proper notification and all other relevant requirements of the Code were adhered to. I also urged lodges to exercise care and caution when suspending a member for non-payment of dues during a global pandemic.

On August 11, I announced that our 2020 Annual Communication would be a virtual event taking place on the same weekend in October as originally planned. My hope was that conducting the Annual Communication this way during a public emergency, when the government would not permit us to assemble in the usual manner, would provide good insight into how a local lodge might be able to do the same. I have formed my ideas used in this experience to write and issue Grand Master’s Recommendation No. 1, which we will consider later in the communication.

In the earliest hours of the initial stay-at-home order, it was apparent that many Californians, including many Masons and their families, would be adversely impacted. Indeed, California unemployment rose to unprecedent levels as businesses shut down and reduced their workforces. By April, unem-ployment was at 16% and more than three million Californians lost their jobs. We knew we needed to respond quickly. The leadership of the Masonic Homes of California, the California Masonic Foundation and our grand secretary came together to strategize a plan. On March 25, one week after the stay-at-home


order was issued, I announced the creation of the Distressed Worthy Brother Fund and California Masons showed the world that when we say we are here for each other, we really mean it.

The plan had two main objectives: 1) to provide relief to any and all Masons and their families who were in need, and, 2) to raise the money to meet the need. Our Masonic Assistance team at the Masonic Homes did an outstanding job in creating resources for our brothers. They built databases of resources in each county for food, housing, and employment. They helped brothers negotiate with landlords and connected them to food banks and employers who were hiring. They saw to it that our brothers received the support they were entitled to from community programs and oversaw the distribution of support from our fund. I want to thank our MOS Executive Director Sabrina Montes and her staff for their outstanding work on this endeavor.

The California Masonic Foundation launched what would become one of the most significant philanthropic efforts in our history, raising over $500,000 in the first few months of the program. California Masons gave whatever they could. We received individual gifts ranging from three dollars to $10,000. Regardless of the size of the gift, more Masons contributed to the Annual Fund this year than in any recent year and it was their commitment to the Distressed Worthy Brother Fund that made all the difference.

As of today, we have provided support and relief to 159 brothers and have distributed $230,368.76 in relief. The relief will continue as long as it takes to get our members back on their feet. And the Distressed Worthy Brother Fund will become a permanent fund to help our brothers through whatever future disasters or emergencies may come our way.

I want to thank our Grand Secretary and the leadership and staff of the Masonic Homes and the California Masonic Foundation for their excellent work with this program. And, I want to thank all of you who made a contribution to this fund. Together, we all made a meaningful difference! Another golden opportunity seized!

Another fine response to the pandemic was evidenced by the quick pivot to virtual work by our grand lodge staff. As the grand secretary explained in his report, the transition to remote work happened overnight and all of our important programs and services continued in one form or another. Continuity of business was a great success by having a Continuity of Business plan ready to be implemented, again thank you to our grand secretary and staff for having the forethought for such an important plan at the ready.

I could not have been more proud of the leadership we displayed with virtual programming. Our speaker series was highly informative and offered a wide array of excellent speakers from around the world. We conducted a virtual leadership course for lodge leaders in place of the usual Master and Wardens Retreats; we conducted a virtual program in place of the Inspectors Retreat; and we held separate online seminars for lodge secretaries and hall association directors. The 2020 Masonic Symposium was held online to record attendance.


We held a number of toasts on Saturday evenings at 9:00 on Facebook Live. These events proved to be very popular and well attended by Masons from around the world. The videos from these events have had over 250,000 views and nearly 10,000 people registered for these virtual events and programs. I want to express my appreciation to brothers Jordan Yelinek and Michael Ramos from our grand lodge staff who managed these programs. They were supported by a host of other members and staff that worked tirelessly together to provide a first-class suite of virtual events.

This year, we are finalizing the 2020 Fraternity Plan. In 2015, more than 7,000 California Masons came together through countless conversations, town hall meetings, and questionnaires to envision the future of the fraternity. The result of that year-long exercise was the 2020 Fraternity Plan, a roadmap to guide the Masons of California into the new decade.

The 2020 Fraternity Plan was centered around four pillars that emerged from extensive member feedback—and which served as guides for the initiatives, philosophies, and procedures that have grown out of the plan. The four pillars are: a rewarding member experience; memorable and meaningful degrees; strong lodges and halls; and our positive impact on society.

At their core, those themes all supported the idea of building a strong foun-dation for the fraternity—for its members, its lodges and halls, and its grand lodge. The focus was not on “quantity,” but rather “quality.” These efforts were aimed at ensuring the experience of California Masonry remained as high as possible. A complete report on the 2020 Fraternity Plan has been published and will be made part of the proceedings of this Annual Communication. I want to highlight some of the major accomplishments.

• New lodge development was a core component of the plan. Since the summer of 2016, we have created 31 new lodges; 27 have been insti-tuted and four are waiting for their institution ceremony.

• Candidate education was greatly enhanced with the creation of the Candidate Learning Center, a comprehensive online resource for brothers advancing through the degrees. Since its launch in 2017, thousands of brothers from over 90% of our lodges have completed all three courses.

• We launched an online accounting and tax system called Intacct, for lodge and halls, along with online and in-person support. More than 75% of lodges and many halls have joined this valuable program.

• We achieved record charitable giving with the “Let’s Write the Future” campaign to support childhood literacy in low performing public schools as well as skilled nursing and memory care. In total, we raised more than $7.5 million dollars for these important causes.

These are just a few of the achievements from the 2020 Fraternity Plan. Along with the others published in the plan report, these accomplishments


demonstrate the importance of having a plan, a road map of success. Our grand lodge has operated with a five-year plan since 2005. We dedicate this year to the development of a 2050 vision and the 2025 Fraternity Plan. We will hear more about these exciting developments tomorrow during the Installation of Officers.

I need to thank so many people, more than I could possible name here, but there are some I simply must acknowledge. First, the entire grand lodge staff under the direction of our grand secretary. Each of you hold a special place in Dana’s and my heart. I want to thank each of you for all you have done to make our journey these past years pleasant and simply unforgettable.

Also, I want to publicly thank those inspectors, committeemen and board members who have fulfilled their terms and are retiring. Your efforts and accom-plishments are indelibly etched upon your districts and boards. Thank you for your time and dedication to our gentle craft. In addition, a special thank you to Most Worshipful Brother Ken Nagel who will be stepping down as our chair of the Acacia Creek Board. His nine years of leadership has helped bring Acacia Creek to the vibrant and sustainable community it is today. On behalf of all California Masons, we thank each of you tremendously.

I would be remiss if I did not take a minute and thank all the mentoring, counseling, and guidance offered to me from our corps of past grand masters. You have helped me in so many ways…all I can do is offer you my sincere appre-ciation and say thank you!

I want to express a heartfelt appreciation to two grand officers that will be retiring with me this year, Worshipful Brother Peter Cunningham our Grand Tiler, and Worshipful Brother Roy Pool, our Grand Pursuivant. Each of these dedicated brothers have served our grand lodge with honor and distinction for many years, and we thank you so very much for your dedicated service.

And lastly, I would not be here today if it were not for the loving care of Dana Lynn. She has stood with me as we traveled, supported me in every pos-sible way and never once complained. She brightened every room she walked into, and I simply could not have done it without her by my side. Thank you sweetie and I love so very much.

Brethren, I have been blessed to be your grand master. No doubt, this was not the year I imagined it would be. We have faced tough challenges—all of us—in our work, in our families, in our communications, and in our lodges. So many events were cancelled and the memories from them never materialized. I know most of our lodge masters have experienced the same disappointments. I truly am sorry.

However, I will retire from this office tomorrow full of pride and confi-dence. Since I have been the grand master called to preside over these great challenges, I’ve had a front row seat to the resilience and goodness of the Masons of California. Despite the calamities that will dominate the memory of this year, I will always remember how well you responded. I will always remember how creative and resourceful you were. And I will never forget how generous and caring you were. You will be the heroes in my memories of this year. Each of


you have left your thumb print upon my heart for a very, very long time.More than I ever imagined I would be, I am proud to be a Mason. Yes…. I

am proud to be a Mason.Thank you, my brethren, for this incredible golden opportunity you have

afford Dana and I. May God bless you and your family and may He keep you safe and always be with you. To each you...all my very best...I love you all.

Thank you and God Bless each of you and California Freemasonry!

Respectfully submitted,

John E. Trauner, Grand Master

REPORT OF THE DEPUTY GRAND MASTER

2020-2021 GRAND LODGE BUDGETArthur H. Weiss, Deputy Grand Master

Dear Brethren,

At the last Annual Communication, the brethren representing our lodges adopted the per capita proposal I submitted as senior grand warden. While so much has changed over the last ten months, I am pleased to submit this budget proposal for the next grand lodge year covering the period of November 1, 2020 to October 31, 2021, which will allow us to continue our important programs and services and address our strategic plans.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the finances of the grand lodge just the way it has every business and organization around the globe. The primary impact has been with the Nob Hill Masonic Center (NHMC) dividend earned from the parking operations at our California Masonic Memorial Temple. As you can imagine, parking revenue fell 70% in the first month of pandemic as all events in the building were cancelled, businesses attracting our daily parkers were closed, and as many as 20% of our monthly parkers left San Francisco to work remotely from less expensive areas.

The NHMC board of directors and executive vice president have worked diligently to respond to the impact and create a recovery plan. The recovery could be over a protracted period as the reopening of San Francisco businesses and the likelihood of large concerts and events could be delayed well into next year. Based on the plan, NHMC will make very little profit this year and essen-tially break even in Fiscal Year 2021. Profits from garage operations should begin to grow again beginning in Fiscal Year 2022.

Membership has also been impacted by COVID-19. Our lodges have not been able to initiate, affiliate, or restore members other than through the Restoration Program. This might well continue for months to come.

Fortunately, our grand lodge and related entities have been prudent in planning for times like these. NHMC has built up operating reserves over the years, having had to cope with the recessions of 2002 and 2008. Also, Grand


Master Trauner managed the grand lodge finances this year to accumulate a surplus. Together, these reserves will offset the losses resulting from COVID-19.

The approval of this budget will create an operating reserve from the surplus realized in this fiscal year. Funds from the operating reserve will allow grand lodge to maintain programs and services without creating an additional burden on per capita. This budget uses $50,000 from the reserve. You will notice the reserve amount is greater in the senior grand warden’s per capita proposal for FY22 at $125,000. The greatest need will be in FY23 (estimated at $250,000) and a lesser amount needed in FY24 ($50,000), at which point the reserve should be mostly exhausted.

The important programs and services that will continue include:

• Financial services to lodges and halls including accounting services, taxreturn services, and tax-exempt status restoration. The cost of Intacct is included in the budget, so lodges will only pay an additional amount for payroll services. Halls will continue to pay fees.

• New lodge development efforts that have already resulted in the cre-ation of nearly 30 new lodges in the state

• Leadership training events including the Masters and Wardens Retreats, Secretaries and Treasurers Retreats, Inspectors Retreats, the Inspector Development Academy, Lodge Management Certification Program, and the new Speakers Series.

• Masonic education including support for events like the International Conference on Freemasonry, the annual symposium, and the Candidate Learning Center

• Technology and data including iMember 2.0.

• Ritual education and training including ritual conferences for inspectors, officers’ coaches and lodge officers and the annual ritual competition

• Communications to Masons, widows, and the general public including the lodge app, new lodge website templates, the California Freemason magazine, the monthly electronic newsletter The Leader sent to all lodge officers, all-member emails, social media, as well as the mainte-nance of over 125 lodge websites. The Freemason magazine will move from six issues to five in this fiscal year. The five issues will include four quarterly issues and the annual report.

In order to meet some of the important goals of the 2025 Plan, this budget also addresses the need for greater public awareness and membership development.

I appreciate the great work that has been done by our grand treasurer, grand secretary, the finance staff, and our finance committee in assisting me in


the development of this budget. I also want to thank the masters and wardens and other attendees at our summer leadership program who provided good feedback to me about this budget.

Brethren, I appreciate the support you gave in the adoption of the per capita proposal last year. Our 2025 plan lays forth the prospect of a great future for our fraternity. I ask you to join me now in adopting this budget as we prepare for the next evolution of Freemasonry!

Sincerely and fraternally,

REVENUE ANALYSIS

The Grand Lodge has several sources of income. Historically, the primary revenue sources have been Per Capita and degree fees. The Grand Lodge Endowment Fund was created in 1992 and generates income from the investment returns. To better manage the income from the Endowment, a 4.5% spending policy has been insti-tuted, calculated on a rolling five-year market value average to protect the fund principle. The Grand Lodge has other finance income, such as interest income. In 2004, the California Masonic Foundation included in its mission the funding of Masonic education and leadership training programs and now provides a grant for such purposes. In 2005, the delegates of the 156th Annual Communication adopted a $30 application fee to be paid to Grand Lodge by all applicants for the degrees of Masonry and out-of-state affiliations. The Grand Lodge provides services through-out the state and receives reimbursement for certain expenses incurred from the Masonic Services Bureaus funds. The Grand Lodge manages the investments of its related entities and receives reimbursement equal to the cost of providing those services. The Grand Lodge also provides certain financial and other support ser-vices to Lodges and Halls and receives reimbursements for these services. The Grand Lodge is the sole shareholder of the Nob Hill Masonic Center Inc. and re-ceives dividends on the profits of this corporation. The 2020 Pandemic has greatly curtailed the Nob Hill Masonic Center’s ability to generate profits which reduced the dividend for 2020/2021. In response to this, the Grand Lodge will receive support from reserves generated from the 2019/2020 operating surplus.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS

Arthur H. Weiss, Grand Master

During my remarks to our lodge leadership over the last two years, I have compared events in my vocational career to events in my Masonic career and described how similarly I have traveled those two paths simultaneously. For me, today represents an intersection of the experiences from those two paths. For me, today is an incredibly exciting and emotional moment, a moment when years of work reach the ultimate moment of truth, the type of moment that I have experienced before in my work context, the type of moment that overwhelms one with its rarity, a moment to be cherished for a lifetime.

In the spaceflight business, it is the moment of launch. The final count-down brings all the elements of preparation to their conclusion. Years of work in developing the launch vehicle, the facility hardware, the procedures, the training and the people, all come together for one focused moment. As each second counts down toward zero, more and more of the entire system is brought to life, until the vehicle is fully alive—ready to fly. Then the engines start and the vehicle is freed from its earthly restraints, to leap towards the heavens, to reach towards the stars.

In that moment is a rush of emotions, from pride in a successful first step to trepidation for the success of the mission, which stays with you until the mission is completed and you can look back with pride on your success.

I have lived that moment and felt those emotions before, once with the first launch of the Space Shuttle in 1981 and again with the first launch of the Delta IV in 2002. And I have lived that same rush of emotions this morning. We have lifted off. We are about to clear the tower. And we are heading outbound to accomplish our mission. I am filled with pride for how well all our preparations have come together, despite the many obstacles that have been put in our way; pride for the incredible people who have agreed to embark with me and share in this adventure; and mild trepidation for the success of the mission—aa thing that I will not be able to assess for myself for a year, when my mission is over and we turn to the next; a thing that the Fraternity will not be able to assess for many years when it, as a whole, can look back and see how far we have come, starting now and stretching into the future.


But to assess success, we need to know our goals. We need to know what we are trying to accomplish. We need to understand our 2050 Vision for the future of the fraternity that starts today. We need to understand our 2025 Fraternity Plan, the five-year mission that launches that vision, and starts today. And more than anything else, we need to understand why.

Our 2050 Vision arose because we are 30 years from the bicentennial of our Grand Lodge. As we know from long experience, change sometimes moves slowly, but no successful change is possible without a steady eye on a desired future. So, today, we set out on a thirty-year journey to achieve the vision of who we want to be at the time of that bicentennial; what role we want to fill in the world in 2050; what new achievements and progress we want our craft to have helped shape in our State, our Country and our world in those thirty years; and what position we wish to occupy as we then launch the third century of Masonry in California.

So, what is our vision? What is the goal towards which we plan to sail for 30 years? Our vision for 2050 is “The World in Harmony.” Everything we do as Masons strives to bring us together, to act in harmony. We want nothing less for our world in 2050. To help achieve harmony in the world, we must set an example that our society recognizes so broadly that others are inspired to emulate us and embrace our values. While this may seem like an enormous, perhaps even unwieldy goal, it is achievable if we work at it, step by step, and if our dedication is steadfast. Our method for achieving this goal is reflected in our new mission statement: “Building peace and understanding through friendship, service, and self-improvement.”

By demonstrating what true friendship really means, by visible and selfless service to our communities, and by constant self-improvement as human beings, we can be the foundation of a future civil society that lives with acceptance and harmony, recognizing each person as a creation of the Great Architect with infinite value, capable of infinite contribution to the good of the whole.

All difficult tasks worthy of accomplishment must be done in stages, broken down into manageable pieces that move the objective forward without discour-aging us with the daunting size of the entire undertaking. For this reason, our 30-year vision has been broken down into five-year plans. Each plan will chart out the next steps towards our goal and, at regular intervals, we will assess our progress and adjust our plan to keep us heading in the right direction.

Our first five-year plan is known as the 2025 Fraternity Plan. When we set out to put the plan together, we realized first and foremost, that we needed data. We could not plot a trajectory from here towards our vision without an understanding of our current place in society so that we could shape a course towards the position we wish to achieve. For this purpose, during the past year, we have surveyed over 1500 members, 290 prospects and 600 members of the public about how they perceived the fraternity, its operations, and its place in the community. It is this data that the Strategic Planning Committee used to chart the course that our strategies and actions will take over the next five years.


The 2025 Fraternity Plan features three pillars or strategic goals about which more information will be rolled out in the next several weeks.

Even as we have divided our 30-year vision into six, five-year Plans, we have further divided each five-year Plan into its individual years, understanding that each grand master that comes to the East will focus on different aspects of the plan and the achievement of the vision as a whole. The aspects of our vision that are important to me and that I would like to see us accomplish in the coming year are embodied in my emblem.

As we work to become the best person we can be, we strive to be the per-fect ashlar. To achieve that, we must be the trowel that spreads the cement of brotherly love and charity throughout our communities. Our journey toward the future is under the watchful care of the Great Architect, represented by the starry night sky, and whom we can only discern by the five senses of our human nature. Thus, my emblem encompasses our core values and begins the construction of the foundation that we hope to build for all of society in the next 30 years. A foundation of a thousand stones begins with a single block.

While the pandemic threw a monkey wrench into all our gears, we are pleased that the fraternity has taken the first steps to emerge from this system failure, which has allowed us to exit this unplanned hold in the countdown and proceed with our launch.

This Annual Communication has demonstrated our ability to use technol-ogy to accomplish key elements of lodge management. Yesterday, the brethren approved the grand master’s recommendation to change our Code to allow virtual stated meetings in times of emergency, which will allow us to manage all activities of the lodge, other than ritual, but including ceremonies, as we wait out the pandemic. We have put out guidelines to allow lodges to start conducting virtual ceremonies and will put out more guidelines in the next few weeks. We are ready to institute new lodges and conduct other ceremonies if a lodge so chooses.

While we will not be able to return to in-person stated meetings nor be able to perform degree work until certain restrictions are lifted, we can get started on the priorities of this year right away. Doing so will help us give purpose, meaning, and encouragement to the brethren. As I have shared with our senior wardens, I have seven strategic priorities this year. Four of them are for imple-mentation at the grand lodge level and the Executive Committee, the Masonic Homes Board and the California Masonic Foundation will be working on them diligently in the coming months. The other three priorities are specifically lodge-level priorities. I call on each of you to discuss in your individual lodges how you can work to implement these priorities.

My first priority is executing year one of our 2025 Fraternity Plan. In the coming weeks, as we distribute the final version of the plan, I will provide you with additional guidance on how I would like to see us incorporate the pillars of the plan into the operation and activities of your individual lodges.


The second priority is committing to increasing Masonic family unity. I have tasked the assistant grand lecturers and inspectors to organize and hold a social event in each of their divisions next year, and to invite all of the concordant, appendant and youth order bodies in that division to attend. This will be a tre-mendous opportunity to improve relationships, to increase communication, and to break down the silos that keep us from working together more effectively.

My third priority is to raise public awareness of Freemasonry. Our survey data shows that the public has very limited understanding of Freemasonry, little awareness of our charitable work in the community, and poor comprehension of our purposes and values. We will begin a campaign to raise awareness of our core values, our philanthropic impact and the community leadership we can provide. I am asking the lodges to infuse more public relations-related activities into their planning—open houses, local honoree celebrations, and participation in community events, to name just a few ways that your lodge can raise its positive presence and profile in your area.

Brethren, ladies and friends, today we stand at a crossroads moment in history and history is made by those who seize such moments. Circumstances have given us the opportunity to assess, review, question, and re-examine what we have taken for granted and to challenge ourselves to think bold new thoughts, to craft bold new changes, and to take bold new actions to embrace the next steps in the evolution of Freemasonry in California. We will become more than we ever imagined we could be, while giving to the world more than it could have ever expected.

Let us remember that the future belongs to those who have the vision to see it and the dedication to work towards it. Our vision, our plan, and my priorities are all aimed at giving us the greatest possible boost as we leap into tomorrow. Let each of us do his or her part to bring our collective vision to life, let each of us play our role, whether humble or exalted, to advance our collective purposes, and let each of us be a link in the chain that pulls our world into peace and harmony.

REPORT OF THE SENIOR GRAND WARDEN

2021-2022 PER CAPITA PROPOSALJeffery M. Wilkins, Senior Grand Warden

Dear Brethren,

As senior grand warden, it is my pleasure to present to you the per capita proposal which will fund the grand lodge budget during the fiscal year of November 1, 2021 through October 31, 2022. This per capita will be collected next summer based on the number of masons on the rolls of each lodge on June 30, 2021.

As you are well aware, the COVID-19 global pandemic has impacted our financial planning. I’m grateful to have worked with our Deputy Grand Master and others over the last few years to build a financial plan. While we have been caused to alter those plans, the work we did leading up to pandemic placed us in a strong position to address the challenges presented by it.

As our deputy grand master has explained in his budget proposal, operat-ing reserves from the Nob Hill Masonic Center and the grand lodge operating surplus from this current fiscal year will allow us to continue our programs and services without an additional burden on per capita. In fact, the total amount of per capita revenue in my proposal is nearly the same as the total amount collected in the deputy grand master’s budget proposal. Though the per capita multiplier will increase, the grand lodge will operate with the same amount of per capita revenue in FY2022 as we plan to operate with in 2021. The strategic use of these reserves makes this possible.

The multiplier will increase based on the following factors:

1. Membership decline. Although the membership decline has dimin-ished greatly in recent years, we are still predicting a decline in members mainly due to the inability to confer degrees over the next number of months. Applications fees will also be reduced. This rep-resents a loss in revenue of just over $96,000 or $2.48 in per capita.


2. Nob Hill Masonic Center Dividend. Though we will be able to utilize the reserves, the planned dividend from NHMC will be reduced by $15,000 or roughly $0.40 in per capita.

3. Labor expenses will increase by 3.3%, including health benefits, which represents $54,358 in additional cost or approximately $1.40 in per capita.

4. Inflation. Non-labor expenses subject to normal inflation will increase by 2%. Lodge insurance will increase by 5%, which represents addi-tional costs of $49,747 or $1.28 in per capita.

Taken together, these factors would require us to increase per capita by $5.56. However, we have taken steps to reduce this amount. The three main factors are an increased insurance commission recapture, reduced operating contingency, and use of the FY20 operating reserve, which together represent $3.31 of reduced per capita.

Therefore, the per capita I propose for the Fiscal Year 2022 is $55.25. Again, the total amount of per capita revenue that will be collected under the proposal is nearly the same as collected in the FY2021 budget proposal.

Despite the challenging times we have all endured this year, I am optimistic about the future of our fraternity. I am excited about our vision for the future and our 2025 Plan. With your support of this proposal, we will continue our important programs and services, including new lodge development, leadership training, communications, technology, financial and administrative programs, and the initiatives to increase positive public awareness and membership growth.

As we continue to work together closer and closer and more in harmony—as we draw from the lessons of the Beehive, we will lay the foundation for the future and craft our leadership and impact on the world.

Thank you for your support!

Sincerely and fraternally,

Jeffery M. WilkinsSenior Grand Warden

REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER

Most Worshipful Grand Master and Brethren All:

In this my fifth address to you as your grand treasurer, I am pleased to report to you that despite the economic challenges presented by COVID-19, that the financial health of our grand lodge and related entities remains strong. We con-tinue to benefit from the efforts and expertise of many brothers who continue to volunteer their time as board members and committee members, and the expertise of our entire grand lodge financial team led by: Tom Boyer, our CFO; Maribel Pasamic, our Controller; Khalil Sweidy, our Director of Financial Planning and Real Estate; and of course, Very Worshipful Allan Casalou, our Grand Secretary.

The Audit Committee, led by Worshipful Tony Garcia, has once again chosen to continue our engagement with Moss Adams as our outside auditor to ensure that our financial statement audits for all of our grand lodge entities continues to go smoothly. As of our last fiscal year ending October 31, 2019 each of our entities once again received a clean audit opinion and were informed that our internal controls remain effective and that our model for shared service costs is not only appropriate but consistent with best practices and industry standards.

The Finance Committee, led by Worshipful Levon Keshishian, continues to bring their broad corporate experience to our budgeting process in working with our deputy grand master and senior grand warden to provide wise and timely counsel in the preparation of their annual budgets and per capita determinations.

The Insurance Committee, led by Worshipful David Forsyth, continues their tireless work in their detailed review of our complex insurance needs for not only our grand lodge entities but also for our lodges and hall associations. This includes an ongoing review of claims to ensure an optimal result for the benefit of the craft and to look for ways to do all of this in the most cost-effi-cient manner possible.

The Investments Committee, led by our new Chair Worshipful Wil Smith, is deeply immersed in their ongoing efforts to monitor the economic factors that impact our portfolio. In their ongoing evaluation of our investment policies, they continue to recommend that 4.5% of our investment portfolio be distributed to fund the grand lodge operating budget which will also work to preserve and grow our overall portfolio for future use. The relationship with NEPC as our


investment advisory firm, which began three years ago, continues to bring forth meaningful discussions with our fund managers and provide a deeper dive on our asset allocations. I would also like to mention that Very Worshipful Glenn Woody, who has served our Investments Committee and our grand lodge for many decades, now has decided to enjoy his retirement and work on his golf swing and so I ask you to join me in offering him well and thanking him for his many years of service to our craft. Thank you, Very Worshipful Woody.

The following financial highlights are based on the unaudited results for the nine-month period through July 31, 2020 compared against the audited results from October 31, 2019. The audited financial statements for the current fiscal year ending October 31, 2020 will be made available with these annual proceedings upon publication.

• Property and equipment decreased $1,771,532 to $68,662,555 from $70,434,087 from normal depreciation of the assets.

• Total liabilities decreased $1,828,187 to $154,310,630 from $156,138,817 due to a decrease in our amount due to the Masonic Homes of California and the principal pay down on long term debt.

• Net assets decreased $963,225 through July 31, 2020 compared to a net increase of $3,918,012 for the prior fiscal year.

• Property and equipment decreased $45,999 to $566,329 from $612,328 for the prior fiscal year representing the decrease from normal depreciation.

• Net income after taxes is $181,381 through July 31, 2020 compared to $531,819 from the prior fiscal year.

• The dividend being paid to grand lodge was $400,000 for the current fiscal year compared to $395,000 in the prior fiscal year.

Grand Lodge of California:

• Total investments increased $458,705 net of distributions to $8,114,059 from $7,655,354 for the prior fiscal year. This excludes the investments held in the Lodges Life Membership Program and Lodges General Investment Program.

• Total Net Assets increased $2,219,582 to $8,563,992 compared to $5,163,808 for the prior fiscal year driven primarily by the increase to our New Lodge Development Fund from the sale of Masonic building.


• The surplus for the budget presented by Most Worshipful Trauner and approved by you at our last Annual Communication was $18,121. The budget surplus currently forecasted for this fiscal year is now $540,627 due to the cancellation of many in person events including this year’s Annual Communication. This surplus will be accrued as a deferred asset to be used over the next several years as an operating reserve to normalize the impacts that COVID-19 are having on reve-nues to Nob Hill Masonic Center which provides an annual dividend to the grand lodge and to the California Masonic Memorial Temple which provides an annual grant for our education programs to the grand lodge.

I have reported the various changes to the investments of each of our enti-ties but it should also be noted that in aggregate our Master Trust has decreased $42,124,819 or 4.0% net of distributions for the operations for all of our entities including the costs of construction at both Masonic Homes campuses. The Master Trust now stands at $1,009,885,638 as of July 31, 2020.

The breakdown of the Master Trust per entity is as follows:

• Masonic Homes in the amount of $922,880,395 or 91.4%

• California Masonic Foundation in the amount of $37,455,499 or 3.7%

• Acacia Creek in the amount of $22,729,516 or 2.3%

• California Masonic Memorial Temple in the amount of $4,064,126 or 0.4%

• Grand lodge in the amount of $8,114,059 or 0.8%

• Lodge Investment Program in the amount of $11,448,833 or 1.1%

• Lodge Life Membership Program in the amount of $2,165,320 or 0.2%

• Nob Hill Masonic Center in the amount of $1,027,890 or 0.1%

The return on investment for the year to date is 4.2% and since inception of our Master Trust in 1995 it remains at a healthy 7.4%.

While our Master Trust has achieved a respectable size, we must remem-ber that these funds are not available to simply withdraw to cover all of the expenses of each of our entities. As I previously mentioned, we are limited to draw 4.5% of the five-year average of the investments for each entity to support the operations. This means that in the example of our Masonic Homes, with a current operating budget of approximately $64 million and an investment distribution of approximately $38 million, that we have a delta of approximately $26 million dollars that needs to be made up from other sources such as fees for certain services and each of our annual contributions in fulfillment of our ongoing obligations to each other.

In 1992 our grand lodge created an Endowment Fund to be funded each year


by the budget surpluses of each grand master. Since that time the Endowment Fund has grown to $2,613,958 as of July 31, 2020. As I mentioned earlier, this year we will be accruing the surplus as a deferred asset for operating reserves to normalize the budgets and per capita assessments over the next several years due to the economic impacts of COVID-19 on our operations at Nob Hill Masonic Center and the California Masonic Memorial Temple. This same Endowment Fund will now provide $107,898 for the budget of Right Worshipful Weiss in the fiscal year ending October 31, 2021 compared to the amount of $106,412 for the current fiscal year.

Participation in the Grand Lodge Life Membership Funds and also the Grand Lodge General Investments Fund has increased over the last year, pro-viding lodges a much-needed option in their investment strategies. As of July 31, 2020, we have 53 lodges participating in the Life Membership Master Fund with a value of $2,165,320 and we have 22 lodges participating in the Lodge Investments Master Fund with a value of $11,448,833.

As we now move forward into a new suite of online services with iMem-ber 2.0 and Intacct, I would like to encourage all of our lodge officers and hall association directors to take full advantage of the expertise of our Grand Lodge Finance Team with budgets, investments, payroll matters, tax filings, real estate matters, and general accounting matters. In utilizing these services and their expertise you will be able to focus more of your attention on practicing Masonry within your lodge and your community.

I would also like to continue to encourage you to begin your budget discus-sions as early as possible with all of the key people in your lodge such as your prospective wardens, treasurer, secretary, trustees, hall association directors, and those with experience in such matters. Discuss your budgets openly and frequently so that the finances of your lodge do not become one of the mys-teries of Freemasonry.

Lastly, I would like to thank Most Worshipful Trauner and all of you for the opportunity to continue to serve as grand treasurer. I truly enjoy working on your behalf with so many caring and dedicated individuals. And I would especially like to thank, my friend, Very Worshipful Allan Casalou. His extensive business knowledge and passion for our craft continually pushes our operations to implement best practices and to rise to the level of professionalism that our grand lodge has become well known for amongst our lodges, for the benefit of all California Masons.

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARY

Greetings to the Members of the Grand Lodge of California

I am honored to address you in this, my 13th report as your grand secretary. I’m happy to be able to connect with you by video as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to keep us physically separated.

Membership Information

Current Membership Statistics

As usual, I will begin my report with membership statistics. However, this has been an a very unusual year for membership in our fraternity. Because our lodges have not been able to conduct stated or special meetings since March 18, we have not been able to ballot upon applications, initiate applicants, or affiliate other brothers. The months of March through June are typically our busiest months for degree conferrals. I estimate that approximately 700 gains were not realized that otherwise would have been. Keep this in mind as I report that we did have a small loss in membership this year.

For the year beginning July 1, 2019 and ending June 30, 2020 we had 2,354 gains and 2,744 losses for a total membership loss of 390 members, or less than one percent of the total membership. Had the pandemic not occurred, I am confident we would have had a total gain in membership of more than 300 members, which would have been the first time we had a gain in membership since 1964. Solving the membership crisis of the late 20th century is within our grasp. The year 2021 will be challenging, though, as the pandemic’s end is not clear and neither is our ability to make new members.

Our total membership on June 30th, was 44,586. Our California Masonic family also includes 18,825 widows.

Part of our success this year was made possible through Grand Master Trauner’s Restoration Program. Some 129 lodges participated in the program and over 1,100 brothers were restored to good standing. Restoring members should be a permanent part of our membership development efforts. When a member is suspended for non-payment of dues, he is still a member of our lodge.


He is simply an inactive member. But we tend to forget about these brothers and sometimes just assume the worst of them. But we have found that many of these members simply lost contact with the lodge. It usually starts when the member becomes less involved in the lodge. When he moves out of the area, he doesn’t think to contact the lodge and soon no one knows who he is or how to reach him. The secretary cannot make contact, so we suspend him. In a survey of suspended members, nearly two-thirds didn’t even realize they were suspended and a large majority said they would like to be restored or connected to a lodge close to them. Now there are those members who simply choose not to pay even when the secretary works hard to stay in communication. With today’s technology we can improve our engagement with our brothers and we should make restoration a constant effort.

Please refer to my written report for detailed membership activity, by-law amendments, life memberships, and veterans’ awards. There were no requests for recognition by foreign grand lodges.

PROGRAMS AND SERVICES

This year, we completed the 2020 Fraternity Plan, which was launched in 2015. So much has been accomplished over the last five years. I hope you take the time to read the 2020 Fraternity Plan Report. You’ll be amazed at what we’ve accomplished together.

I am also very proud of our accomplishments over the last seven months. These have been challenging times, for sure, but we have all stepped up to meet the challenge and we have accomplished good things and we have learned and have become a better and stronger organization.

At 9:00 a.m. on Monday, March 16, 2020, I was meeting with our leadership team to discuss our remote work plan, which we were going to implement slowly over the week sending staff home to work there for what we thought could be several weeks or even a few months. We had an all staff meeting set for 2:00 p.m. At noon we got word that it might happen and at 1:00 pm, the mayor of San Francisco issued the first shelter in place order in the nation, which went into effect at midnight that day. We shifted our plan into high gear, held our staff meeting at 2pm and by 6pm all staff members were home with all the equipment and software they needed to work remotely. At 8:00 a.m. Tuesday morning, the grand lodge office was operating remotely at normal levels and services were uninterrupted. We can all be proud of our team for their dedica-tion and their perseverance.

Member services, financial services, real estate and legal services, com-munications, technology, human resources, and philanthropy all transformed literally over night to remote work. Really, I could not be more proud.

From there we built on this foundation to provide new services and pro-gramming, connecting our members wherever they were. Programs like the world-wide and world class Masonic Speaker Series, the virtual leadership


seminars, Facebook Live events, virtual lodge institutions, and virtual Public Schools Month events. And now, we are about to launch the first-ever virtual Annual Communication. Through it all, we heeded the Grand Master’s mes-sage and looked for every Golden Opportunity to engage and connect, to stand together, to learn and to grow.

We did not back down from the opportunity to launch iMember 2.0, even though we were not able to do the in-person training we had planned. I am proud to say we successfully made the transition to the new system on July 1. Sure, there have been issues along the way. Nothing out of the ordinary really. It was actually much smoother than the launch of the original iMember in 2004 or Intacct in 2015. We are more advanced and we work together better than ever before. I’m so excited that we are using a membership system that is also being used by 40 other grand jurisdictions representing thousands of lodges and hundreds of thousands of members. We are connecting the global fraternity in ways we could only dream of before. So I say, let’s stand together in our progress with iMember 2.0. My personal thanks to Jordan Yelinek who lead the launch and the whole member services team: Kendra Robitaille, Melissa Southerland, Pamela Ly, and Jason Harding. And they did this all while main-taining very high service levels. In the last year, the team processed some 10,000 requests for information and service and completed over 90% of them in the same business day.

Communication was key over the last seven months. We have always had a top-notch communications team, but it has never been better than it is now. This small but creative, hardworking, and talented team produced some of the highest quality communications I’ve seen from any membership organization. They built industry-leading COVID-19 communications for the Masonic Homes and Acacia Creek who are on the front lines of the pandemic. Residents and their family members, staff, and the general public knew exactly what was happening on our campuses every day even as news was changing by the hour. They used social media in new and interesting ways, they made hours of short video con-tent, and wrote some of the best copy ever. We’re lucky to have Emily Limón at the helm of this team, which includes Ian Stewart, Lillian Gardner, Pete Ivey, Justin Japitana, and Sataym Shrestha. With their help we published some of the best issues of the California Freemason magazine this year. They all were home runs. The national publishing association felt the same way, recognizing our publications with three of their top awards in 2020.

We called on our philanthropy team to step up in a big way this year. Just as we were ending the most successful campaign in our fraternity’s history, the Let’s Write the Future Campaign, we found ourselves in a position to do even more good. You’ve already heard all about the Distressed Worthy Brother Fund. Honestly, your generosity blew our minds. We all can be proud of what we’ve accomplished with this effort, including all of the great support provided by our Masonic Assistance team at the Masonic Homes. Our philanthropy team also reached new heights in their work to connect with you on this campaign


to quickly meet the needs of our brothers whose lives were thrown into chaos by the pandemic. They also help us show the State of California how much we care when they led us to the Super Summer Book bag program with Raising A Reader and our Major League Baseball foundation partners. And to top the year off, they pulled off really great public schools month activities in September. A big shout out to Doug Ismail and the philanthropy team: Candler Gibson, Denise Avila, Greg Cherry, and Joshua Castro.

I wish I could name all of our staff who made such a tremendous contri-bution this year. We have so much to be proud of!

APPRECIATION

As I conclude my report, I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to the lodge secretaries and assistant secretaries whose dedicated work is the backbone of our jurisdiction. I also wish to thank our assistant grand lecturers and district inspectors who, in addition to their ritual duties, provide invaluable adminis-trative support throughout the year.

Finally, I wish to extend my deep appreciation to our grand master. In our system, we don’t seek out leadership positions. We are called to service—we’re selected by our brothers. I know M.W. John didn’t seek to be grand master, but we are so fortunate that he answered our call to service. It’s never been more true. He was the right person for the right job at the right time. He had so many great plans and programs in the works. Fortunately, a number of them came to fruition. But he led us through this pandemic with a steady hand, a sense of purpose, humor and humility. He was optimistic and he has inspired us to be our best. I am a better person and a better Mason for knowing him and a better grand secretary for having worked with him. Thank you, most worshipful, for your leadership, your friendship, and service to our craft.

And thank you, my brothers, for the opportunity to serve and work with you.


Allan L. Casalou, Grand Secretary

REPORT OF THE GRAND LECTURER

Most Worshipful and members of the Grand Lodge:

This is my second report to you my brethren, as your grand lecturer. It is my duty to convey to you the current condition of the ritual in our jurisdiction. For this report, however, I have divided it into two sections: Activities prior to March 18, 2020 and activities after March 18, 2020. Please allow me to begin with “AFTER MARCH 18TH” and our current conditions.

After March 18 , 2020

The Ritual Committee and I had hoped to salvage the Ritual Competition for this year. It consisted of the master’s work at the altar in all 3 degrees. We deemed it appropriate because it is one of the most impressionable moments for our candidates and brethren receiving their degrees. As the time available was slowly passing, it became evident that we would not be able to gather for such a competition, and the competition was canceled in August.

Visiting Brethren On Social Media

Having to stay at home, I found great comfort in being able to visit with my brethren through Facebook and ZOOM meetings. In addition to our Grand Lodge Speaker Series these past months, I wish to thank those lodges that invited me and allowed me to sit in. My thanks go out to the masters of Orange Grove Lodge No. 293, Big Bear Lodge No. 617, LA Harbor Lodge No. 332, Washington Lodge No. 20, Sacramento Lodge No. 40, the Al Malaikah Shriners and Potente Seb Badoyan, the 414th Masonic District officers, and Gary Glass’s presentations at Burbank Lodge No. 406. Thank You, my brethren for allowing me to visit. I look forward to being able to continue our fellowship in person. I appreciate each of you for creating and maintaining an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere during these ZOOM meetings, so all members can participate and enjoy. You are setting a great example for how we all need to fellowship and treat each other, Masonically.


Virtual Ritual

As our restrictions to meet in person have progressed, it became increas-ingly evident that the matter of virtual degrees and virtual proficiencies would eventually need to be discussed. In March of this year, I placed the question before the Ritual Committee and a select group of open-minded brethren to see what their thoughts were on the subject. Within a few weeks of Grand Master Trauner’s edict, I began receiving their comments. It is essential in these days that we each endeavor to personify the virtue of patience, particularly being an example to those brethren desiring to return their proficiencies and receive their degrees, and to our applicants wishing to join the craft. Many of these lodge brethren, looking for ways to serve their communities and maintain lodge activ-ities have requested from our grand master a special dispensation to perform virtual degrees and/or virtual proficiencies in a digital platform for their lodges.

Our grand master’s edict considered the conditions that exist in our juris-diction along with those precautions and measures administered by our state and local government officials. It must be made clear: these have proven to be serious and difficult times. Prevention, so far, being the only course of action to stem this pandemic. Our own fraternal population is the most vulnerable. Understandably, our ability to meet socially has been stopped and our ritual along with it.

I have spoken with several brethren and asked them about their Masonic journey and have discussed with them how their journeys began. These brethren informed me that they had investigated our fraternity and our concordant bodies and studied them in detail before applying. All these brethren communicated to me that despite the information available to them, nothing lived up to the actual experience of receiving their degrees. Even after educating themselves with the knowledge of our craft available to them, there was still something to be obtained through the conferral of our degrees. I believe a clue to this is found in our Fellowcraft degree when we are presented with the five senses of human nature. Of the five, three are “particularly essential” to masons. Of the three, feeling is conspicuously absent in anything deemed “virtual”.

A visitor to a museum website can view the art through a computer screen, but the actual piece, seen in person, conveys the colors and textures of the art-ist’s work by stimulating the human senses. Presenting our ritual in a degree, properly done, conveys the beauties of our lessons in a genuine, interesting, and inspiring manner, that needs to be taught while exercising the human senses and motivating both the candidate and the brethren present. We can replicate the sound and the light; what can be seen and what can be heard. But nothing has, is, or ever will replace the sense of meaningful human contact.

It is the opinion of the Ritual Committee that no matter how GOOD the technology is, presenting our proficiencies and degrees virtually will always be, at best, a poor imitation. A computer screen is not an adequate replacement for our candidates to take their obligations upon. True friendships are cultivated


through physical human contact and trust in a friend guiding can only be accomplished through gentle human touch.

Prior to March 18 , 2020

Visits

Prior to March 18, 2020 I had the opportunity to visit quite a few scheduled events that I had hoped would be the beginning of a very productive year. I was able to visit the joint School of Instruction for Districts 301/305/309; I made a trip to Long Beach to visit the 642nd Masonic District School of Instruction; and visits to Central Coast Lodge in Arroyo Grande and Atascadero Lodge in Paso Robles during their November stated meetings. I was pleased and honored to be asked to serve as installing officer for my very first dual installation for Visalia-Mineral King Lodge No. 128 and Olive Branch Lodge No. 269. At each of these events I witnessed the high degree of kind fellowship you would expect from a Masonic lodge in California. To the master’s and inspectors, I wish to convey my appreciation for your invitations and allowing me to participate in your lodge and district activities. Please continue your efforts to promote the excellence in our ritual and engage your officers and brethren in meaningful instruction.

Music

A couple of years ago, Worshipful Steve Miller and I entered into a “ritual project involving music.” This project eventually took off and soon developed a life of its own. Worshipful Steven, our Grand Organist, and I have continued to have conversations, emails, and texts, throwing out thoughts we had that would ultimately become ideas. This year’s ideas included a list of tracks avail-able for lodge download and use. We first had the idea of recording Worshipful Steve on the grand lodge organ but couldn’t find a way to do that. Thanks to Worshipful Brian Miller and being able to read the instructions, we were able to find the ports we needed to record directly off the organ. Worshipful Steve and I started going through the stacks of sheet music he had collected and some other music we had heard and felt would be appropriate pieces to play. Worshipful Steve recorded 13 tracks of music from the grand lodge organ. These tracks are currently on the grand lodge website. For now, they can be accessed via your inspector for download. Our plan was to have more tracks and more musicians be made available throughout the year. Worshipful Steve and I had planned to arrange, with lodge organists, to visit and record their music from their respective musical instruments. It occurred to us that we may have some brethren and ladies who are residents of our homes and Acacia Creek who might also be willing to participate and play for us so we could record their musical talents and add their music to the library. The purpose of all of this was to make music available to the lodges and brethren, and contribute to a


meaningful degree experience, especially in those places where a musician is not currently available.

Other Visits

The weekend of March 7th - 8th 2020 stands out in my heart and mind as the pinnacle of ritual excellence. Our Grand Lodge officers had been progres-sively getting better in their new roles and by November and December, the ceremonies of constitution were getting better and better. When March came, it was a rare weekend where an event in the north was followed by an event in the south the next day. Many of the Grand Lodge officers from the south flew up for the grand lodge opening and reception honoring our grand master at Madison Lodge in Grass Valley. The work and music opening grand lodge were outstanding. We all flew south to open grand lodge again at Redlands Lodge at the occasion of their cornerstone in Lincoln Park. Again, the Grand Lodge officers and inspectors filling in were excellent in their work. The opening ritual, the music, the attention to planning details were outstanding. One brother from the sidelines stopped me to tell me how much he enjoyed watching the grand lodge opening and how well the officers carried themselves. I couldn’t stop smiling and saying to myself, “I love it when a plan comes together”!

It pains me to think that these were the last ritual events of the year when there were so many more opportunities still ahead. I was particularly looking forward to Annual Communication and watching the work of our Grand Lodge officers, as I know you were as well. To the 2019-2020 grand lodge family, thank you for your diligence and hard work. You were outstanding examples of ritual excellence, and it was truly my honor to have served with you all.

Summary

It is not the same level of tragedy by any means, but I find the conditions we are facing in our ritual work have similarities to being forced to evacuate due to fire conditions, not knowing what the conditions are, and wanting to go in to assess the damage and start the process of rebuilding.

The fact is that due to the current restrictions we are facing, there is no ritual in our jurisdiction. When we are finally able to resume our work, I fear that we will find it in great disarray and in need of rebuilding. Let’s try to be prepared for that day. My hope lies in the efforts of the masters, wardens, lodge officers, officers’ coaches, and inspectors who are looking to that day in the future where we will once again be able to visit together and promote the ritual we love. We have many brethren and candidates who are waiting to enjoy the benefits of Freemasonry and who deserve meaningful degrees. Let us all individually prepare for our parts so when the call comes in for us to join, we can each add our song to the ensemble and play!

I wish to convey my deep appreciation for all those who have assisted me and the Ritual Committee in all our endeavors this year. Thank you to Very


Worshipful Allan Casalou and his awesome office staff who help us to stay informed and on tract to assist our grand master and the craft.

When you work with friends you can accomplish anything. My thanks to the inspectors who support our lodges and represent our grand master and to the other nine members of the Ritual Committee, our assistant grand lecturers. I believe there is no problem so big that we can’t solve, together. I thank each of you for your hard work and fellowship.

To our Grand Master John E. Trauner and your lady Dana—thank you both for your kindness and love and allowing Patty and I to join your travels and bear witness to such a great group of people in your grand family.

With humility, I thank this grand lodge body for allowing me the honor to serve our grand master and our fraternity this year, Thank You, my brethren.

GRAND CHAPLAIN INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE

“Navigating Our Masonic Diaspora”

Most worshipful sir, past grand masters, fellow Grand Lodge officers, brethren and guests, a pleasant day to you all.

It is, indeed, a great honor and a distinct privilege to share with you some thoughts as we gather for our 171st Annual Communication.

Unlike previous Annual Communications, what we’re doing this year is totally unprecedented. It has never been done before. We are virtually united as one body and yet physically distant from one another.

This unique character of our gathering, and our being away from where we should have been, made me think of “diaspora,” a term that our Jewish B=brethren are very familiar with. For those who are unfamiliar with it, “dias-pora” originally referred to the uprooting and the involuntary mass dispersion of Jews from Israel back in the sixth century BCE. Nowadays, “diaspora” no longer refers only to this one historical event; it has evolved to allude to any displacement of a people, physical or otherwise.

It is in this frame of mind that I wish to speak to you on the subject of how we’ve navigated our kind of diaspora; our Masonic diaspora!

And I’d like to begin by quickly revisiting “diaspora” in its original context. The first diaspora was the Babylonian captivity, that period in Jewish history during which, for three successive waves, the Hebrews, the Israelites were forcibly uprooted from the land they claimed as theirs and were made captives in Babylon.

Part of the Hebrew Scriptures, Psalm 137, which Christians are also familiar with, alludes to this sad episode. This Psalm begins:

“By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion.” And in verse 4, we read: “How could we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land?”

These verses are poignant reminders of a people’s sorrow and desolation in captivity. They allude to a situation in which a people’s joys and prosperity and identity came to an unexpected halt. Remembering how forged they were as a people, with religion at the very core of their life, and realizing that these blessings were now relegated to their distant past, it’s no wonder that, sitting by the unfamiliar rivers of Babylon, they could only weep! And asked by their


captors for a song, they replied in despair, “How can we sing the Lord’s song in a foreign land!”

Brethren, in some sense and under poetic license, I submit that we are in a kind of a diaspora, a kind of displacement directly resulting from the current COVID-19 global pandemic. When the general health condition of the entire country was at stake, preventive measures were mandated by the authorities on all levels, and those who were responsible for affected organizations, such as our grand lodge, were more than willing to comply. After serious consideration, Most Worshipful John E. Trauner issued his directive that no Masonic event, of any sort, should take place until further notice.

Thus, began our Masonic diaspora, our exile of virtual displacement from our lodges, those places that we’ve considered our “home” whence we were raised.

While in our diaspora, we were advised to stay at home, as well as away from that other “home;” hence, we were “at home and yet, away from home.”

Our physical distancing has had its effects on the way we were used to living out our Masonic life. The excitement of seeing our brothers during stated meet-ings and degree conferrals was nowhere to be found. The wholesome partaking of the tokens of nourishment and refreshment has come to a halt. Scheduled candidates’ progressions were put on hold. Plans for ceremonies of institution as well as receptions for grand officers were in limbo. And to top it all, today’s gathering had to be done virtually, with major adjustments.

And so, I wonder, what have you experienced since we entered our virtual diaspora back in March? How have you moved around or how have you navi-gated our Masonic diaspora?

Let me tell you a few things I have noticed. For some, the inactivity might have bred a sense of casual dismissal or even a nonchalant attitude. “What? grand lodge says no activity? Fine. I can make better use of my time.” To those who had this mindset, it seemed as though they had permission to do nothing. They were at a standstill! That, without doubt, was and is an awkward way of navigating our Diaspora. It paved the way for the relational gap between and among lodge members to turn into a wide chasm because of the contagion called “indifference!”

Yet for many others, the initial inactivity was not the whole story. These members may have initially said, just like the rest, “What? Grand lodge says no activity? Fine. I can make better use of my time.” But they didn’t stop there. Calls were placed, texts were sent, emails went out, and a new cloud of possibilities began to form in the horizon.

For these brethren, the attendant circumstances brought them to different spots in that imaginary “riverbank by the rivers of Babylon.” Their sense of navigation was not static but vibrant and community-oriented, always aided by no less than the charge they’ve been entrusted with.

Most of you gathered today have heard these words: “To soothe the unhappy, to sympathize with their misfortunes, to compassionate their miseries, and to restore peace to their troubled minds is the great aim we have in view.”


Such is what we were taught to do when the tenet of relief was first explained to us. While there are some who would brag that they have memorized those lines and so claim they already know Freemasonry, and yet haven’t done any-thing about it, there are more of our brethren who are willing to exemplify the tenet, even in our diaspora.

In fact, they used it as their raison d’être for a different kind of remembering “whence they came.”

Some lodges pooled their resources and brought food to the frontliners working at their local hospitals. Others extended a helping hand to provide relief and meet the emerging needs of those who lost their jobs. Calls were placed for our loved ones at the Masonic Homes, assuring them that they have not been forgotten. Virtual meetings were held, bridging the gaps of isolation and, my, those Saturday evening toasts! Hundreds tuned in as words of wisdom and encourage-ment were shared, highlighted by the offering of toasts, recognizing those in our wider Masonic Community. The drive for Masons4Mitts and our grand master’s appeal to support Masonic Assistance—all were met with extraordinary success.

These and still many more efforts are some of the noticeable ways many of us have navigated our diaspora. This activity not only gave us well-deserved congratulations but was also a source of pride that we have willfully veered away from what would have been a contagious and idle “weeping by the rivers of Babylon.”

These efforts have sustained us over the last six months. And now it’s time to reassess, as we wonder, “How long will this diaspora last? How long will our current innovative navigations through the diaspora hold steady?”

Brethren and friends, the proverbial “light at the end of the tunnel” is barely visible, as yet. Its advent may not be at the time of our own choosing. But as a people of hope, we know we will see that light eventually. And when that happens, our Masonic diaspora will see its much-awaited and jovial return home. Then shall our hearts be able to sing our song with full-throated joy.

In the meantime, we can harness and hone our skills of resiliency even as they have already enabled us to withstand the limitations that have weighed us down.

At the opportune time, another set of grand officers will be installed, headed by our worthy brother, Right Worshipful Arthur Weiss.

I am confident that with his vision and his able leadership and the support of his grand family, Most Worshipful Art will help us navigate our eventual return home, ending our Masonic diaspora.

Thank you all and may the blessing of the Almighty be on you and yours, today and always. Amen.

GRAND ORATION

Spreading the Light of Freemasonry

Most worshipful grand master, brethren and friends:

This certainly has been an unusual and memorable year in our world and in Freemasonry. In times like these, I am evermore proud and thankful to have the privilege of membership in our unique and enduring brotherhood. Equally, I am thankful for the opportunity to have served our grand lodge this year. Regardless of the present turmoil in this world, “I am proud to be a Mason!”

How many times have we heard a presentation begin with these words, or something similar? Even our grand master spoke these words near the begin-ning of his annual message today. Why do we say such things? What gives us this sense of pride? What is it about our fraternity that positively affects the world in which we live? Moreover, what makes Freemasonry a relevant insti-tution today? These questions have been asked time and again throughout the long and illustrious history of this universal brotherhood of good and upright men. Several of my predecessors in this office have addressed these topics far more eloquently than I am able, and I seek not to repeat here the great variety of history, facts, and logical analysis previously presented. Rather, I hope to induce you to action today.

In considering these questions, it is important to acknowledge that this world is ever changing and has always done so. It is equally important to note that the fundamental lessons and structure of our order have remained constant throughout its history, all the while in this seemingly endless sea of change. How can an institution which does not change remain relevant in an everchanging world? What do we offer to humanity, that is not readily found elsewhere, and is useful everywhere?

In the search for answers to these questions we should first consider some of the fundamental aspects of humankind. First and perhaps foremost, we are mortal; we are destined to pass beyond this world. Equally as certain, we are completely inconsistent. As human beings, we each have within us the ability to be kind and cruel; right and wrong; loving and hateful; weak and strong; tolerant and intolerant; honorable and disgraceful; good and evil. We have free will. Though some might argue to the contrary, I believe we all have a conscience—that inner feeling or voice which guides us and enables us to


know right from wrong. Clearly, there are men in our world who do not have a very well-developed conscience or who have so repressed it that it seems to be nonexistent—nonetheless, they do have one. Nothing in the behavior of man should be surprising to any of us. To be human is to be imperfect; and yet, we are all God’s children and we all have an innate capacity for goodness.

Throughout the history of mankind, the search for meaning and guidance in life has been an ever-present occupation. Kings and commoners, the afflu-ent and the poor, leaders and followers alike seek this wisdom. Innumerable institutions and systems of morality have been developed by man to answer the questions we all naturally have within us and to guide us on the path of righteousness. The majority of these institutions have passed into history with only a relative few seeming to withstand the test of time. The major religions of the world are generally considered to be enduring but they are for the most part mutually exclusive, and by their doctrine, an adherent cannot follow more than one—therefore, they do not have reasonable hope of reaching all of mankind without the necessary demise of nearly every other system of faith. Certainly, we believe our beloved craft has universal appeal and will endure, but why should it? What makes our order any more enduring than institutions which have held the devotion of earnest men, only to slip away into obscurity? We do not hold a patent on the virtues and precepts we inculcate. There have been a great many institutions which have offered similar systems of morality and still they succumbed to the ravages of time. We firmly believe that Freemasonry appeals to the universal heart of man; all men regardless of station, origin, ethnicity, or persuasion, without imposing a creed or conflicting with a man’s faith. Perhaps it is this distinction that enables our fraternity to maintain relevance throughout the passage of time in an everchanging world. Surly the virtues and precepts espoused in our ritual are timeless and, in our system, are readily available to each brother on his terms—at a time and in a manner appropriate to him.

More than 40 years ago, I was raised a Master Mason in a small rural lodge in my hometown. I was 21 years old at the time and certainly not very wise. I don’t think I could have articulated then precisely what attracted me to this fraternity. I knew it was something uniquely good and important and, therefore, something that I wanted to be a part of. I knew, from my several years of activity in the Order of DeMolay, that Masons were good and upright men and that I wanted to be counted among them. My desire to emulate the fine examples of compassion, understanding, encouragement, tolerance, and leadership displayed by our chapter’s advisors was compelling. So, I was made a Master Mason and, almost immediately, the vagaries of life shifted my focus away from active participation in our fraternity. Certainly, this is not an unusual tale among the family of Freemasons. Nor is it unusual that the influences of our craft seem-ingly lie dormant in a man and yet subconsciously illuminate the virtuous path before him and, at a critically important time in his life, they come to the fore.

Such was my experience. Some of you may know that I served our country for many years as a Marine. During that service, I endured combat and witnessed


great atrocities, unspeakable tragedy really, and hard evidence of the existence of evil. Like any human being, I could not help but be forever changed by these experiences. This mental shift is commonly experienced, to one degree or another, by nearly everyone who serves in or near harm’s way, including officers in law enforcement, fire fighters, medical practitioners, social workers, and of course military veterans. Such experiences leave a person questioning ever more-so the meaning and value of life and struggling to live peacefully with an altered sense of humanity. Shortly following my last return home from Iraq, my personal struggle reached its zenith and I actively began searching for a way through. In due time, I came to realize that what I needed to advance through and to overcome this dark place, was already within me—they are the lessons I had learned so many years ago in Freemasonry. Most of you will recognize the clear truth of this when you consider the ebbs and flows of membership in our ancient and honorable fraternity. The greatest spikes in numbers of Masons in this country have come in post-war periods and were commensurate with the numbers of returning veterans who were looking for a way to bring peace and meaning back into their lives and looking for a substitute for the comradery and the sense of contributing to the greater good which they had experienced in the service. Perhaps the comradery and structure of goodness, which are universally present in Freemasonry, are among the fraternal attributes which benefit our world now, as they always have.

When this year began, through our grand master’s theme, we focused on the foundation of Freemasonry in our state and the contributions of the members of our early lodges within their communities and throughout this land. “California Freemasonry—Rooted in the Gold Country, Forged in Ideals.” In considering this theme and its apparent and potentially hidden meanings, we necessarily must understand the circumstances which led to the development of our early lodges. Also, the important work which raised them to prominence in their communities. By now we all must know that the earliest lodges in California were formed under dispensations or charters issued by regular grand lodges in the eastern United States and they were established in mining camps and fledgling communities of the California gold rush beginning in 1848. At that period in our history, many thousands of men and more than a few women left their homes and families in the east and made the treacherous journey west in search of fortune. They moved willingly into a wild territory where law as they knew it did not exist and, for most of them, the people they held dear and trusted would not be available to aid and support them. Many of the Masons who made this journey into the unknown wilds of the west, found friendship, support, and security in the fellow Masons they met in the streams and diggings of the gold fields. They understood that the influence of our beloved craft would greatly enhance life in the gold fields and in the rapidly growing communities nearby. They set about doing the great work of Freemasons - establishing lodges and making Masons. They understood that sharing the tenets of brotherly love, relief, and truth and exemplifying the virtues of temperance, fortitude, prudence,


and justice would coalesce well-intentioned men into an unbreakable force for good. They understood the relevance and importance of this great system of morality at that time and place and they diligently set about ensuring its influ-ence expanded to meet the great need. They were good men - banded together to help each other become better men; to more fully overcome their human nature; to help those in need; and to establish a structure of goodness in their communities. They saw an important opportunity and they made the most of it.

How is their opportunity materially different from the opportunity now before us? Certainly, the tumult they were experiencing is different than that which we now face. However, I would suggest ours is no less difficult and cer-tainly can become more insidious. Today we are faced with political and social divisions which have the potential to tear our society apart. Most of us find solace in the fact that these divisions generally do not cross the thresholds of our lodges. As imperfect beings, we also know that such divisions do creep into our lodges—when they do, it is incumbent on each of us to actively see that they are removed. We should all keep in mind the words of Thomas Jefferson who said, “I never considered a difference in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.”

The solutions to our current societal struggles may well be found in the example of those Mason miners who spread the light of Freemasonry at a time when it was most needed. Our world desperately needs Freemasonry today; perhaps now more than ever before. Good men throughout the world are looking to associate and participate in something greater than themselves and to make a positive impact in their communities and the world at large. They are seeking to develop true and enduring friendships and are discovering that this endeavor is especially challenging in the modern impersonal world of technology and social media.

I recently read an article in a magazine my wife bought called Magnolia Journal. In it, the author Joanna Gaines wrote, “It’s human nature to seek revision and meaning in our lives, to desire that the imprint we leave on this world be significant, to hope that we use the time we’re given to be worthy of the opportunity.” This statement struck a chord with me and I’d be surprised if this weren’t true for each one of us.

In the long history of our fraternity, we have often been hindered by our understanding of the unwritten law of Freemasonry: never to solicit anyone to take the degrees of Masonry. This law exists for a reason we all know, understand, and support. However, this law does not restrict us from talking openly about our beloved craft with the uninitiated. Nor does it preclude us from initiating a conversation about Freemasonry or from inviting non-Masons to join with us in our efforts to aid and assist those in need and in serving our communities.

Imagine our world if there were more good men in our lodges and if the common man truly understood who we really are and why we are so dedicated to the work of our order. Would the World not be more harmonious if this were the case?


Masonry appeals only to the universal heart of man. Perhaps more than any other institution, Masonry recognizes the worth of man, merely as mortal man—the high duties, the privileges, the sorrows of manhood. It is human in its origin and aims.

We have before us a golden opportunity (much like those Mason miners I previously mentioned) to share the morals and values of Freemasonry and to spread our commitment to truth and toleration. In this endeavor, we cannot help but to improve the world. We should not be selfish or circumspect in taking advantage of this opportunity. I believe that the more we share who and what we are, the more good men will seek to join us and the better our world will become.

When we engage in this endeavor, we must be welcoming, open, and forth-right—never allowing visitors to our lodges to stand alone, wondering if they are welcome among us; never judging people by their appearances but by their heart and spirit; always mindful of the condition we were in when we first entered a lodge of Free and Accepted Masons and that it is the internal and not the external qualifications which recommend a man to be made a Mason.

The capacity for evil may indeed be present in every human being. As long as good men continue to seek to improve themselves and make the world a better place—as long as we perpetuate the teachings of our beloved craft and welcome all good men into our lodges—the vast majority of people on this Earth will seek to be good and the despots and tyrants in our world will not long be able to persist.

I enjoin each of you to freely share with others in your life what makes Freemasonry so important to you. In doing so, you may light the flame of hope in people who would otherwise be stuck in despair and you will certainly be contributing to the greater good. This is how we positively affect the world in which we live; this is what has always made our fraternity relevant and will keep it so in the future.

Opportunities don’t come along everyday—nobody regrets the ones they take, just the ones they don’t. Will you take this opportunity to have a part in making our world a better place by spreading the light of Freemasonry?

Thank you.

2020 GRAND LODGE LEGISLATION

GRAND MASTER’S RECOMMENDATIONS

Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 1

Conduct of Certain Lodge Business During Emergencies

On March 18, 2020, I issued a decision limiting Masonic events during the current COVID-19 gathering restrictions. Because lodges could not hold stated meetings during this period to approve payment of its bills, I authorized the payment of all essential lodge bills whose payment could not reasonably be deferred, once approved by a majority of the elected lodge officers, subject to ratification of their action at the lodge’s next stated meeting. Rather than submit this decision for approval, I am submitting it as a recommendation, requesting that you add to our law this power to appropriate lodge funds to pay essential bills during an emergency.

It is also my view that we should add to our law procedures by which lodges may hold virtual stated and special meetings during an emergency. If this recommendation is adopted, the grand master could authorize lodges to meet electronically during an emergency, without the lodge opening and closing ceremonies in the ritual and without any other esoteric or secret portion of the ritual. All lodge business could be conducted as now authorized in our law other than receiving investigating committee reports, balloting, examining a candidate in the Candidate’s Lecture of any degree or conferring of degrees. In declaring such an emergency and authorizing virtual meetings, the grand master could make provision for voting if a written ballot is requested on any matter, for notice to the lodge members of the date, time and means of electronic access to the meeting, for tiling such a meeting and for any other requirements which he may deem appropriate.

If you adopt this recommendation, the following changes will be made to the Code. Section 807.000 of the Code would be amended to read as marked:


§807.000. STATED MEETINGS.

A lodge shall hold a stated meeting for the transaction of business once in each calendar month, on the date and at the time established in its bylaws. The fore-going notwithstanding, lodges whose bylaws provide for meetings fixed by the phase of the moon shall hold a stated meeting for the transaction of business once in each lunar month, and Mountain Range Lodge No. 18, Harmony Lodge No. 164, Truckee Lodge No. 200, Big Bear Lodge No. 617 and Rim of the World Lodge No. 711 shall only be required to hold a stated meeting for the transac-tion of business once in each of 10 calendar months during the year, as it may provide in its bylaws.

A lodge may be opened for a stated meeting prior to the time fixed in its bylaws. However, no business shall be transacted prior to such time.

The inspector or grand master may grant a dispensation to change the date of a stated meeting, as provided Section 405.060 of this code.

In the event that the master of a lodge determines that inclement weather, including but not limited to ice, snow, and flood conditions, or non-weather related unsafe conditions, including but not limited to flood, fire, earthquake, civil disturbance and the like, existing on the day established in the bylaws of the lodge for its stated meeting, makes it hazardous for members of the lodge to attend the meeting, he may, with the concurrence and consent of the Inspector of the district to which the lodge is assigned, move the stated meeting to another date, time and/or safe and secure location within the same calendar month. The master shall notify, to the extent possible, all members of the lodge residing within 50 miles of the meeting place of the lodge of the date of the postponed stated meeting.

Should a stated meeting be postponed, the business transacted at the postponed stated meeting shall be limited to the reading of the minutes of the last stated and subsequent special meetings, action thereon, payment of the invoices of the lodge, and such other business of an important nature as determined by the master to require immediate consideration. No other new business shall be considered.

If the grand master determines that assembling the required number of persons for holding a stated meeting is prohibited by competent local, state or national authority, the power of the lodge to appropriate money to pay essential lodge bills whose payment cannot reasonably be deferred may be exercised by a majority of the elected officers of the lodge, subject to ratification of their action at the next stated meeting of the lodge. In addition, the grand master may authorize the lodge to hold a stated meeting through the use of conference telephone, electronic video screen communication or electronic transmission so long as each member of the lodge participating in the meeting can communicate with all of the other members concurrently and each member participating is provided the means of participating in all matters before the meeting, including, without limitation, the capacity to propose, or to interpose an objection to, a


specific action to be taken by the lodge. Such meetings shall be held without the lodge opening and closing ceremonies in the Ritual and without any other esoteric or secret portion of the ritual. The following business may not be conducted at any such meeting: reports of investigating committees, balloting, examining a candidate in the Candidate’s Lecture of any degree or conferring of degrees. The grand master may make provision for voting if a written ballot is requested on any matter, for notice to the lodge members of the date, time and means of electronic access to the meeting, for tiling such a meeting and for any other requirements which he may deem appropriate.

Section 807.010 of the Code would be amended to read as marked:

§807.010. SPECIAL MEETINGS.

Except as provided in Section 807.020 of this code, a lodge may hold such spe-cial meetings in addition to its stated meeting on such dates and at such times as it determines or the master shall direct. No special meeting shall be held on the same day as a stated meeting. A postponed stated meeting shall not be considered to be a special meeting.

Only the following business may be conducted at a special meeting:

A. Collections or appropriations for charity;

B. Examining a candidate in the Candidate’s Lecture of any degree;

C. Conferring of degrees;

D. Funeral service;

E. Installation;

F. Electing a representative to the annual or a special communication of the grand lodge; or

G. After dispensation from the grand master:

1. Balloting for and conferring the degrees upon an applicant without reference to a committee, or

2. Receiving and acting upon the application of a rejected applicant within less than 12 months after the date of his rejection.

If the grand master determines that assembling the required number of persons for holding a special meeting is prohibited by competent local, state or national authority, the grand master may authorize the lodge to hold a special meeting through the use of conference telephone, electronic video screen communication or electronic transmission so long as each member of the lodge participating in the meeting can communicate with all of the other members concurrently and each member participating is provided the means


of participating in all matters before the meeting, including, without limitation, the capacity to propose, or to interpose an objection to, a specific action to be taken by the lodge. Such meetings shall be held without the lodge opening and closing ceremonies in the ritual and without any other esoteric or secret portion of the ritual. The following business may not be conducted at any such meet-ing: balloting, examining a candidate in the Candidate’s Lecture of any degree or conferring of degrees. The grand master may make provision for voting if a written ballot is requested on any matter, for notice to the lodge members of the date, time and means of electronic access to the meeting, for tiling such a meeting and for any other requirements which he may deem appropriate.

Report from the Legislative Analysis Committee

In March of 2020, a state of emergency was declared in the State of California for health and safety reasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic that prohibited the lodges of the Grand Lodge of California to meet within the meaning of the rules in Section 807.000 and 807.010 of the California Masonic Code (CMC). As a result of this declaration, the grand master made a decision limiting Masonic events during the emergency and he authorized the payment of all essential lodge bills whose payment could not reasonably be deferred, once approved by a majority of the elected lodge officers, subject to ratification at the lodge’s next stated meeting.

Instead of submitting that decision for approval by grand lodge, the grand master has decided to submit this recommendation that proposes to amend Sections 807.000 and 807.010 of the CMC to give the grand master the option to authorize the elected officers of a lodge to appropriate lodge funds to pay essential bills during a declared emergency and to allow stated and special meetings to be held electronically, with certain restrictions, if the grand master determines that assembling the required number of persons for holding a stated or special meeting is prohibited by competent local, state or national authority such as a declared emergency.

Each lodge is required to conduct stated meetings on a regular schedule as stated in the lodge’s by-laws. It is the meeting at which all of the lodge’s business can be conducted, including degree work.

A stated meeting may only be conducted if it complies with the require-ments set forth in the CMC. A lodge’s meeting place must be in a safe and suitable room for tiled lodge meetings (as determined by the inspector of the district in which the lodge is situated) which has been previously selected by the lodge and which is located in the city, town or community fixed by its charter or dispensation. The date and time of the stated meeting is stated in the lodge’s by-laws. A stated meeting can be moved, and its meeting date and time changed due to hazardous conditions, but it must be in the same month and there are restrictions on what business can be conducted in a postponed


meeting. There must be at least five members of the lodge in attendance, who are in good standing including the master or one of the wardens, to meet the quorum requirements of the CMC. The meeting cannot be adjourned and must be closed on the same day as it was opened.

Likewise, a special meeting may only be conducted if it complies with the requirements set forth in the CMC. However, unlike a stated meeting, a special meeting can be held on dates and times not specified in the lodge’s by-laws, and if approved by the appropriate inspector with a dispensation, can be held outdoors. Additionally, only the following business may be conducted at a special meeting: (1) collections or appropriations for charity; (2) the examination of a candidate in the Candidate’s Lecture of any degree; (3) the conferral of degrees; (4) funeral service; (5) installation; (6) the election of a representative to the annual or a special communication of the grand lodge; and (7) after dispen-sation from the grand master, (a) balloting and the conferral of degrees upon an applicant without reference to a committee, and (b) receiving and acting upon the application of a rejected applicant within less than 12 months after the date of his rejection.

The CMC’s requirements for conducting stated and special meetings are mandatory and not subject to deviation. Therefore, a change of the CMC is required to allow stated or special meetings to take place in a manner other than in-person and in a space approved for tiled meetings.

The recommendation has two parts. The first part codifies the grand mas-ter’s authority to grant lodges power to appropriate money to pay essential lodge bills whose payment cannot reasonably be deferred to the lodge’s elected officers, which may only be exercised by a majority vote of those officers, sub-ject to ratification of their action at the next stated meeting of the lodge, if the grand master determines that assembling the required number of persons for holding a stated meeting is prohibited by competent local, state or national authority. Granting such an authority to the lodge’s elected officers parallels the authority given to the elected Grand Lodge oficers to appropriate money during a declared emergency pursuant to Section 403.095 of the CMC. It is a stop gap measure to keep lodges solvent during an emergency by allowing them to pay their bills while ensuring full disclosure and oversight by the lodge at its next regular stated meeting. If this authority is granted no other business could be conducted without a stated meeting convened in accordance with the requirements of the CMC. The current authority for the elected officers of a lodge to pay bills expires with the close of the Annual Communication.

The second part of the recommendation gives the grand master the sep-arate option, at his discretion, to authorize the lodge to hold stated or special meetings without the lodge opening and closing ceremonies in the ritual and without any other esoteric or secret portions of the ritual, and through the use of conference telephone, electronic video screen communication, or electronic transmission so long as each member of the lodge participating in the meeting can communicate with all of the other members concurrently and each member


participating is provided the means of participating in all matters before the meeting, including, without limitation, the capacity to propose or to interpose an objection to a specific action to be taken by the Lodge.

There are important items of lodge business that can only be conducted at a stated meeting such as the amending of by-laws, the approval of lodge min-utes, the election of officers, the approval of the lodge’s budget, the issuance of demits or withdrawals of multiple memberships, the suspension or restoration of members for non-payment of dues, and the remission and return of dues, just to name some of the more important items.

If the grand master is able to authorize the lodge to hold stated and special meetings electronically as contemplated in this recommendation, then a lodge would be allowed to conduct all regular stated and special meeting business during an electronically conducted meeting except reports of investigating committees, balloting, the examination of a candidate in the Candidate’s Lecture of any degree, and the conferral of degrees.

If this recommendation is adopted, the grand master would also have the authority to make provision for voting if a written ballot is requested on any matter, for notice to the lodge members of the date, time and means of electronic access to the meeting, for tiling such a meeting, and for any other requirements which he may deem appropriate.

There has not been any previous legislation on electronically conducted meetings. The only parallel in the CMC is the Emergency Provisions Section 403.095 referenced earlier, which permits a majority of elected Grand Lodge officers to exercise the power of grand lodge to appropriate money, assess its constituent lodges, approve acts of its constituent lodges, and review trial records, if assembling the required number of persons for holding an Annual Communication is prohibited by competent state or national authority.

Modern technology provides an option for holding meetings without ritual and without members being in physical proximity to one other. Doing so would permit lodges to conduct any necessary business. However, this should be bal-anced against the fundamental right of a member of a lodge to receive notice, be present and speak to any issue before the lodge. A properly conducted elec-tronic meeting can provide that right. A lodge can decide whether to conduct the meeting via a telephone conference call or use a computer-based meeting application, a combination thereof, or another electronic method that allows the most members to participate in the meeting. The adoption of this recom-mendation does not require a lodge to conduct meetings electronically, it only provides the option if the grand master approves.

If the recommendation is not approved, no stated or special meetings can take place and bills cannot be paid by the elected officers of a lodge in the new Masonic year, absent a new decision by the grand master.

Recommendation: PASSED


Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 2

Deferral of Legislation to the 172nd Annual Communication

As the COVID-19 pandemic continued into August, it became clear that we could not hold the traditional Annual Communication this year. Our easiest alternative would have been to conduct the business of the grand lodge using CMC §403.095, which provides:

If assembling the required number of persons for holding an Annual Communication is prohibited by competent state or national authority, the power of grand lodge to appropriate money, assess its constituent lodges, approve acts of its constituent lodges and review trial records may be exercised by a majority of the elected officers of grand lodge. The elective officers of grand lodge shall continue in their respective offices until the Annual Communication following rescission of the prohibition.

While the Masons in 1950 wisely added this provision to our law, it has never been used. Your grand lodge leadership also asked, with so many lodges and other Masonic groups taking advantage of virtual meeting software, why shouldn’t the Grand Lodge of California? My Decision No. 2 summarizes the actions taken to plan and hold this virtual session.

Because this Annual Communication is being held virtually, something we have never tried before, I was concerned about conducting anything other than the most routine business. Your leadership decided to limit what we are doing today to those items which the elected officers could have done under CMC §403.095, your consideration of my recommendation to allow lodges to have virtual stated and special meetings and the election and installation of the Grand Lodge officers. To limit what we are doing today to these items, the voting members of grand lodge must defer to the 2021 Annual Communication the consideration of the carryover legislation from 2019 and the consideration of the resolutions submitted this year. I cannot do that. It can only be done with your consent.

Thus, if you adopt this recommendation, you will have given that con-sent. The consideration of the carryover legislation from the 170th Annual Communication and the consideration of resolutions 20-01 through 20-04 at this 171st Annual Communication will be deferred to the 172nd Annual Communication.


Report from the Legislative Analysis Committee

By way of this recommendation, the grand master seeks grand lodge’s approval to postpone, until next year’s Annual Communication, the consider-ation of the carry-over legislation from the 2019 Annual Communication and the resolutions submitted this year. The grand master has expressed concern about conducting anything other than the most routine business during this Annual Communication because it is being held virtually, over a mass video conference.

Section 403.035 of the California Masonic Code specifies the business to be performed at an Annual Communication, which includes the consideration of written resolutions. Thus, the CMC would generally require, as part of this virtually-held Annual Communication, the consideration of the three carry-over resolutions from the 2019 Annual Communication and the four resolutions submitted this year.

This recommendation, if adopted, would suspend the CMC requirement to consider those resolutions during this Annual Communication without amending the CMC. The resolutions would then be considered at next year’s Annual Communication.

Postponing consideration of the resolutions would likely have little negative impact. Without going into the details of the resolutions, it is worth noting that—with the exception of one resolution that is virtually identical to Grand Master’s Recommendation 1—none of them seek to address an emergency situation.

Further, postponing consideration of the resolutions would provide demon-strable benefits. First among these is the privacy that a tiled lodge room provides. Some of the resolutions address sensitive topics, such as remission of dues and what is considered ritual. And as evinced by the lack of the grand lodge’s opening ceremony this year, the high level of privacy typically enjoyed at tiled in-person meetings of the grand lodge cannot reasonably be expected this year in this virtual format.

Also, the consideration of written resolutions seeking to alter the CMC is serious business and this virtual format leaves the voting membership more susceptible to distraction. At this very moment, there are undoubtedly voting members of this grand lodge succumbing to the distractions of home; whether it be dealing with screaming children or watching college football. The con-sideration of resolutions at tiled in-person meetings of the grand lodge is an immersive experience that minimizes distractions and focuses attention on the important business at hand.

The grand master’s concerns about voting on resolutions when using a mass video conference for the first time are reasonable. The adoption of this recommendation would not change the code, it would only apply to this Annual Communication. All carry-over and 2020 resolutions would be postponed until next year’s Annual Communication.

Recommendation: PASSED

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES

MASONIC HOMES OF CALIFORNIA

When the new fraternal year began last November, the Masonic Homes of California was looking forward to opening its new skilled nursing facility in Covina, and had broken ground on the new memory care and assisted living center in Union City. The first residents of the Masonic Outreach Services Shared Housing program had moved in to the Covina campus, and MCYAF was supporting a record amount of fraternal and external clients, after expanding to Covina in 2018.

Then, as early as January 2020, as the news about a new coronavirus was filling the airwaves, the leadership team at the Masonic Homes of California began preparing for what would ultimately become the worst pandemic in our lifetimes. By the time the county and state announced shelter-in-place orders, the Masonic Homes team and residents were informed about the risks and had policies and procedures already in place to keep residents, clients, and staff safe and healthy. That forethought prepared them for weathering the early months of the pandemic unscathed by the virus.

Since mid-March, the Masonic Homes of California has tested over 4,500 staff and residents for COVID-19. In the months since the virus hit, it has expe-rienced only 12 positive tests among staff at both campuses, which are situated in the middle of two of the most hard-hit counties—Alameda and Los Angeles.

Staff have put into place numerous new policies and procedures to keep the campuses healthy and virus-free. Rigorous screening procedures, wearing masks and PPE when necessary, social distancing, and restricted visitations are the new normal at the Masonic Homes of California. These new protocols are important for keeping the virus at bay. But so too are ways in which residents and staff keep their spirits up. Early on in the pandemic, staff found ways to provide enriching activities and social opportunities such as digital visitations, hallway happy hours and bingo, and frequent video reports from the President and CEO, Gary Charland. They were also thoughtful about residents’ mental wellness, and began offering free services from the Masonic Center for Youth and Families.

And while the leadership team’s utmost concern is always for residents, the team was, and continues to be, highly concerned about the well-being of


the staff. Quickly, the leadership team realized that to keep residents healthy they must also keep staff healthy. The team developed the We Care program, which offered weekly necessities, such as toilet paper and groceries, so that staff would not have to risk their health by going into the community as often. They instituted Hero’s Week, to allow staff time to decompress and relax, away from the stressors of the daily risk. Staff is able to take advantage of MCYAF’s services as well.

In the meantime, Masonic Outreach Services was busy distributing services and financial support through the Distressed Worthy Brother Relief Fund, which has helped over 193 brothers in need. When the initial call went out for this special fund, they received call after call asking for support during this time. They continue to provide both support services and financial assistance for brothers across the state.

Despite COVID-19, our Masonic homes served more than 349 brothers and their wives, widows, and families on our campuses and in our communities, and more than 790 clients through our Masonic Center for Youth and Families. Through Masonic Outreach Services (MOS), over 550 Masonic family members received support in their communities, close to their lodges and families.

More than 275 Masons and their wives and widows continue to thrive on our Union City and Covina campuses. Four residents are in our 100+ Club, and our eldest resident celebrated her 107th birthday this month. In addition to high quality independent and assisted living care that our residents receive, our skilled nursing program in Union City serves Masons and their families who require more advanced nursing home care. For many families, knowing that their loved ones will be cared for at the Masonic home has been a godsend.

While most of the year has been consumed with COVID-19-related care, construction on our campuses continued. After a brief halt, the construction on our new 32-bed skilled nursing center is again underway. Thanks to your generosity through the Let’s Write the Future Campaign, this new center will offer memory and long-term care to those in their greatest hour of need. We look forward to opening our new, state-of-the-art center in 2021 on our Covina campus, so that we may improve the quality of life for our elder members in Southern California.

Our campus master plan in Union City continues to evolve. The new memory care and assisted living center in Union City is rising before our eyes and renovations continued on two 60-year-old buildings to increase capacity. The outdoor space, including a landscape plan and veteran’s memorial in the heart of our campus is almost complete, and we look forward to the days when we can congregate together for outdoor activities for the residents. Again, thanks to the generosity of our membership, all of these needed renovations will allow us to uphold our obligation to you, our brothers, that the Masonic homes will be here when you or your loved ones need us.

Even through the pandemic, memory care remains a primary focus at our Masonic homes, as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia statistics rise each year.


Our innovative memory care program, Stepping Stones, provides strategies at every level of memory loss. From the Brain Gym, which helps residents sharpen their memory through neurologist-designed computer stimulation, to the Compass Club memory day care, we have continued to demonstrate that memory loss progression can be slowed—and in some cases, even reversed.

Our Masonic Outreach Services programs continue to serve our fraternal family members throughout the state. In addition to a higher volume of infor-mation and referral calls due to COVID-19, the MOS staff was able to continue to provide some home visits this year. Need continues to expand in the Central Valley, and so do our services in this area, as well as in other emerging areas.

The important Lodge Outreach Program, which trains volunteer Masons to lead outreach efforts locally, extends MOS’s reach while meaningfully engaging members and reconnecting absent brothers with their lodges. This year, I’m happy to announce that Anacapa Lodge No. 710 and Oxnard Lodge No. 341 have received the Joe Jackson Award for their exemplary leadership, involve-ment and partnership to better serve their community. Both lodges have been very active in the Division V Lodge Outreach Program and have demonstrated extraordinary outreach efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Shared Housing program on the Covina campus has proven difficult to implement and the Board has directed staff to undergo an extensive study to look at possible alterations to the program structure that would allow for greater access and benefit to those who may be attracted to a group living envirornment.

The Masonic Value Network, which helps members conveniently and inde-pendently research and access care in their own communities, is a resource to our entire masonic family, and continues to grow. The prescription discount service is an especially popular service for our membership.

And our Masonic Center for Youth and Families has provided much needed mental health support to children and families in our communities and to our residents and staff. This year, MCYAF reached over 790 people through com-munity and lodge outreach, and has expanded its fraternal client base when our members find themselves in need. Especially now, our mental health ser-vices are so needed, and we are proud to be able to provide these services to our members, residents and fraternal family as well as to our communities. Its telehealth program is thriving, and reaches clients statewide.

In Covina, MCYAF has built a reputation with the Child Advocacy Center, the Service Area Advisory Committee 3, comprised of leaders in the fields of social services and mental health in Los Angeles, and with the Covina Police Department, all of whom hold our services in the highest esteem. In fact, the Child Advocacy Center honored MCYAF and the Masonic homes as their Super Hero award at their annual gala this year.

Earlier this year, the board of trustees directed an outside study, conducted by Moss Adams Consulting, to determine the potential need for expansion of behavioral health services in the State of California. The study looked at demand, served and unserved populations, structures and funding sustainability


models that might form the basis for a longer term strategy of MCYAF services in California. The study has been received and is now being used as the basis of strategy development by the homes’ leadership.

All of this can’t be done without an energized staff, and I’m so proud to share that the Masonic homes has been named one of the Top Workplaces in 2020—for the second year in a row. This accolade means so much to us, especially during a year that has been so challenging. By measuring factors like company values andemployee connection to its mission, our entire staff is to be commended for making the Masonic Homes of California truly a great place to work. We are so incredibly proud of this recognition. Our work with the Masonic Homes Way has helped to revitalize our culture and commitment to our members, residents and clients.

For well over 100 years, our commitment to our fraternity and our commu-nities has been strong. And this year, it has never been stronger. The Masonic homes will be here when you need us, and as always, we are committed to serving you now and in the future.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Grand Master John Trauner for his support, our board of trustees for their courage and vision through this time, and our Board Chairman, Most Worshipful Larry Adamson for the outstanding leadership of our crown jewel, the Masonic Homes of California.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORSAcacia Creek Retirement Community

Despite the incredible challenges that the past year has presented, Acacia Creek has remained resilient and healthy—a testament to the collective efforts of its leaders, staff, and residents.

Now in its 10th year of operation, Acacia Creek, our continuing care retire-ment community, continues to meet its 25-year pro forma and its annual pay-ment on the bonds. Thanks to a strong fiscal performance through the first three quarters of the fiscal year and aggressive expense controls through the rest of the year, Acacia Creek was able to offset some of the loss of revenue and additional expenses incurred as a result of the Coronavirus.

Most importantly, Acacia Creek has been fortunate to avoid a mass outbreak of COVID-19 despite the presence of several positive tests among staff mem-bers and residents. Through a campus shutdown and quarantine, and required testing of residents and staff, cases were isolated quickly and effectively. The campus lockdown, which included discontinuing many activities and communal dining, also had the effect of dampening the number of influenza cases—from 32-40 during a normal year to only six active cases in 2020—and keeping the number of resident transitions lower than usual.

However the shutdown has had a negative impact on Acacia Creek’s occu-pancy rate and revenue in the fourth quarter overall. Through the first three quarters of FY2020, Acacia Creek’s average occupancy rate of 96 percent was well above the 93 percent average among independent continuing care retire-ment communities in the Pacific region and 88 perent nationwide. The inability for prospective residents to tour the campus means occupancy has dipped; however, four prospects are ready to move in once the shutdown is lifted. Success acquiring any such move-ins before the end of the year will provide Acacia Creek an opportunity to close the year above 90 percent occupancy.

In place of campus tours, the sales and marketing program has focused on growing interest in Acacia Creek through phone interviews, follow-up calls with contacts acquired through the direct mail program, and website refer-rals. Furthermore, a bold new direct-mail campaign has been particularly well received, and in June was recognized by the Association Media and Publishing awards at its yearly Excel Awards. The campus retirement counselor, who is working from home, continues to work these leads and those on the waitlist


by phone, through virtual tours, and via the Acacia Creek social media sites. A safety plan for move-ins is in place for those who want to proceed with their move-in. Residents are anxious to, once again, participate in the tour and wel-coming process once the shutdown ends.

The happiness of its residents has always been the driving force behind the success of Acacia Creek. This year, in the face of singularly trying circumstances, residents remain overwhelmingly satisfied with their experience on campus. These important qualities are reflected on the annual resident survey, which when last taken, in summer 2019, indicated resident satisfaction at a historic high of 96.5 percent. Acacia Creek residents demonstrate, through the annual Successful Aging Personal Review survey, that they enjoy better health, nutrition, and levels of physical activity than those at comparable communities elsewhere in the country, or even in their own homes prior to moving to Acacia Creek.

Thanks to data like that, Acacia Creek was in 2019 re-certified as a Center for Successful Aging, a designation it has held since 2016. One of just 19 com-munities nationwide, and the only one in Northern California, that recogni-tion positions Acacia Creek as a flagship community for the Successful Aging program, which is based on concepts inspired by the MacArthur Foundation’s 10-year study on aging.

This certification is awarded to communities that have provided intensive documentation, over five years, of a culture where residents continue to grow and thrive. At Acacia Creek, this has been achieved through the leadership team’s commitment to continually assess and implement policies and procedures in order to meet the physical, spiritual, social, and intellectual needs of the res-idents. Residents have helped spread understanding of the Successful Aging principals beyond the campus by sharing their skills, knowledge, and energy in the local community. Before the shutdown, that included volunteering at local schools, senior centers, soup kitchens, and presenting to senior groups and busi-ness groups. Acacia Creek continues to benefit from the camaraderie between its Masonic and non-Masonic residents. To date, 13 residents and staff from Acacia Creek have joined the fraternity, including administrator Martin Herter.

Another important partnership for Acacia Creek is with Masterpiece Living, a national organization that provides educational,physical, and mental wellness programming. Through Masterpiece Living programs, Acacia Creek residents are empowered to pursue new skills, physical activities, as well as contribute to the Acacia Creek community.

The commitment to personal fulfillment extends beyond just residents. At Acacia Creek, staff members consistently report a positive work environment, which is reflected in low turnover rates. Acacia Creek team members, who follow a “team-management” concept, are decision-makers who feel a sense of ownership in the community’s operations. Since 2019, the leadership team has focused on training all team members and their families on the goals of Successful Aging to encourage healthy living and job satisfaction. This includes opportunities for continuing education through the sponsored scholarship


program. As a result, staffing has been stable at Acacia Creek for the past three years. The annual turnover rate of 23 percent is significantly lower than the industry average of 33 percent. Additionally, there has been no turnover among the leadership team in more than four years.

Since its opening, leaders envisioned Acacia Creek, including all levels of healthcare from independent- and assisted-living to skilled nursing and memory care. The Masonic Homes of California and Acacia Creek boards continue to collaborate to expand and improve the health services on both campuses. This year, the Masonic homes, as part of its Campus Master Plan, began construction on Acacia Creek’s new Memory Support and Assisted Living building, situated across the street from the existing facility. Completion is expected in 2021. This project will ensure increased capacity and expanded services for the residents of Acacia Creek.

The Acacia Creek board wishes to extend its sincere appreciation to Chuck Major, president of Acacia Creek; and Martin Herter, vice president and adminis-trator, who together have maintained the high level of morale and accountability of the staff, and for executing the strategic marketing plan that has maintained Acacia Creek’s occupancy stabilization for the last six years ensuring the quality lifestyle for the residents that is the vision and goal of Acacia Creek.

The board also wishes to thank the members of the grand lodge executive committee, the grand lodge staff, the Masonic Homes Board of Trustees, and the Acacia Creek Board of Directors for their expertise, vision, and passion. We are excited about our future, and together we look forward to ensuring the continued success and support of the mission of Acacia Creek.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEESCalifornia Masonic Foundation

Entering 2020, the board of the California Masonic Foundation prepared to rally for a successful close to its landmark, three-year Let’s Write the Future fundraising campaign. Led by Chairman R. Stephen Doan, the campaign had already surpassed its original goal of $5 million and, by March, had crossed the $7 million threshold, making it the most successful campaign in the history of the Grand Lodge of California.

Then came COVID-19—and with it, a need for something different.Looking at the landscape in California and beyond, it was immediately

clear that the hardships of illness, loss of employment, and financial insecurity wrought by the pandemic had reached many California Masons, leaving them and their families in profound distress. So, the foundation, led by its president, Doug Ismail, pivoted. In incredibly short order, a new campaign was born: The Distressed Worthy Brother Relief Fund. Led by the California Masonic Foundation and expertly administered by the Masonic Homes of California’s Masonic Outreach Services, the fund received record donations to aid those affected by the pandemic and subsequent shutdowns, connecting them with state and federal resources, advice, and emergency funds. As of this writing, the fund had exceeded $575,000 in funds raised in less than six months.

Clearly, the extraordinary message resonated with California Masons, who responded in kind to make the fund the most successful annual fund effort in the foundation’s history, and to underscore what so many of us already knew: California Masons are among the most charitable people around.

The Distressed Worthy Brother Fund has been, rightly, the crowning achievement of the past year for the California Masonic Foundation; however, it was not the only campaign to be carried out. For the 26th consecutive year, California Masons supported the State of California Teacher of the Year pro-gram. In one of the last public events of 2020 prior to the shutdown orders, in early March, Grand Master John Trauner, Deputy Grand Master Arthur Weiss, and CMF Board Chairman John Heisner were in attendance to honor the fab-ulous teachers selected for celebration as California’s best.

Elsewhere, though, the CMF carried on despite profound disruptions to its normal operations. The foundation’s staff persevered and, in the greatest of Masonic traditions, adapted to its new reality to ensure that the charitable


programs it supports did not go without.In place of handshakes and heartfelt face-to-face conversations at retreats

and leadership workshops, staff found new ways to stay in communication with several Masonic boards, including—crucially—those of the Masonic Homes of California. While in-person meetings came to a halt, the foundation board con-tinued to strengthen with the homes its understanding of how best to continue providing excellent service to the residents and staff of the Masonic homes.

The foundation continued to support public education and scholarship programs, including Investment in Success, Masonic Youth Leadership, and the Prince Hall Masonic Scholarship with $650,000 going to scholarships and $400,000 dedicated to literacy and the Teacher of the Year program. In all, the California Masonic Foundation distributed just over $1 million to supporting students and public education.

Other foundation initiatives were forced to adapt. As schools across the state suspended in-person instruction, celebrations of the 100-year anniversary of Grand Master Charles Adams’ initiation of Public Schools Month were can-celed, and the Public Schools Advisory councils were stopped in their tracks. Again, though, the foundation found a way to fulfill its mission of helping the state’s most vulnerable—and managed to bring two important partners together to do so.

With Major League Baseball delaying the start of its season, staff at the foun-dation worked alongside their Masons4Mitts partner teams in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Anaheim, and San Diego to rethink the popular baseball mitt donation program. The end result was the creation and distribution of nearly 8,000 Super Summer Book Bags, filled with books and other arts and educational materials sourced by the foundation’s literacy partner, Raising A Reader. The bags, co-branded with Raising A Reader, each Major League partner team, and the Masons of California, were distributed by the charitable arms of the Major League clubs to children in their areas—and offered the gift of an enriching educational experience to thousands of deserving families. In addition, Masons across the state rallied to donate funds to provide 3,500 baseball mitts to chil-dren across the state, each with the square and compass embossed into the leather.

Despite the many obstacles faced over the past year, the board of trustees is extremely pleased with the growing culture of philanthropy demonstrated by the membership of the Masons of California. We look forward to the years ahead with confidence in knowing that the fraternity’s fundraising arm is as strong as ever—and perhaps stronger as a result of the challenges it has faced.

I want to thank and congratulate Most Worshipful John Trauner for his leadership during this past year. The fraternity’s 2020 Strategic Plan ends on October 31, 2020. A new 2025 Strategic Plan will take its place. The California Masonic Foundation is already doing its part to ensure that the charitable goals of the fraternity have the support they require.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEESCalifornia Masonic Memorial Temple

The California Masonic Memorial Temple, or CMMT, has the important duty of overseeing the operation and preservation of the Masons of California’s historic headquarters on the top of Nob Hill in San Francisco. Through various lease agreements, CMMT generates sufficient revenue to maintain the build-ing and build capital reserves without reliance on per capita from the Masons of California. For more than 60 years, the CMMT has maintained a first-rate building that has attracted millions of visitors and provided an excellent meet-ing place for the Annual Communication and offices for the Grand Lodge of California and its related entities.

Without a doubt, 2020 will go down as one of the most difficult years in the history of the CMMT. As with many hall associations, lease payments to CMMT were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The two largest tenants of the CMMT, Live Nation Entertainment and the Nob Hill Masonic Center, experienced dramatic changes to their business operations as a result of the shutdown. The auditorium has been shuttered since the middle of March and garage revenues have sharply declined. The board of the CMMT worked closely with both of these tenants to find solutions that were in the best interests of all parties. While revenue for CMMT for this year will fall short of expectations by more than $200,000 due to COVID-19, about 75 percent of that will be repaid in the future.

In addition to the shutdowns affecting the auditorium and garage, the newly built Freemasons’ Hall was closed beginning in March per a directive from Grand Master John Trauner suspending in-person Masonic meetings. There have been no meetings or events there since.

The path to recovery for the CMMT will take time. The expectation for now is that the building might be fully operational again by the fall of 2021. In the meantime, the board has cut operating expenses to the necessary minimum while still properly maintaining and preserving the building.

In preparation for its strategic plan, the CMMT board commissioned a study of the entire building in 2018, including all mechanical, plumbing, elec-trical, and other components. From this report, the board issued a 2030 capital plan addressing all needed maintenance, repair, and replacements that will be


required over the next 10 years. According to the plan, all improvements will be paid for through operating cash flow. The board established a new building improvement reserve fund for these purposes.

That work began in 2020, with most of the planned improvements for the year completed before the shutdown took effect, including the replacement of elevator doors and their related mechanisms, major maintenance to the boilers and HVAC equipment, and the replacement of a number of security cameras and servers. These projects cost approximately $290,000 and were paid for from the building improvement reserve funds. Due to COVID-19, the board has adjusted some of the projects scheduled for 2020 and 2021 to later years. However, a major project is still planned for 2021 in replacing the third-floor air-handling system. Though the pandemic may have slowed some progress, the board remains committed to its 2030 plan and will continue to oversee its implementation.

As a major fixture on Nob Hill, the CMMT board’s responsibilities to the greater community continue to be a top priority. The CMMT continues to be a strong supporter of the neighborhood and holds quarterly meetings through the Nob Hill Community Liaison Group. Executive Vice President and Secretary Allan Casalou serves as director and secretary of the Nob Hill Association; he also continues to serve on the Huntington Park Committee, chaired by our own Khalil Sweidy, a Nob Hill resident. CMMT supports the annual Huntington Park Tree Lighting Ceremony, which attracts hundreds of Nob Hill neighbors each year.

While our doors are temporarily shut, we look forward to welcoming the brethren back to their memorial temple as soon as possible, and to welcom-ing our neighbors and the public back to enjoy entertainment and education within our walls once again. For more 60 years, CMMT has been a tangible representation of the principles of Freemasons—and it will continue to into the future.

The board wishes to extend its appreciation to Executive Vice President and Grand Secretary Allan Casalou; to Chief Financial Officer Thomas J. Boyer; Director of Financial Planning and Real Estate Khalil Sweidy; Andy Cameron, our general counsel; and Grand Treasurer Arthur Salazar. It would also like to thank Julia Gordon for her work in preparing and managing our board meetings and materials, as well as Joe Evans for his excellent curation and management of the Henry Wilson Coil Library and Museum collections. This year we learned of the upcoming of retirement of our building engineer, Mr. Dale Vigil, who has been a steward of our building since 1998. He will retire in February 2021 after 23 years of service. We wish to thank him for his devotion to our fraternity and to this building, and we wish him in advance a healthy and happy retirement. Finally, we thank our grand master, Most Worshipful John Trauner, for the opportunity to serve, and for his active support of our efforts.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEESNob Hill Masonic Center

Like all people and businesses in the Bay Area and throughout the country, the Nob Hill Masonic Center has been significantly impacted by the Coronavirus health crisis and subsequent shutdown orders. Until March, when San Francisco issued the first-in-the-nation shelter-in-place orders, the Nob Hill Masonic Center was enjoying one of the best years in its history. The garage remained open throughout the shutdown, but as events were canceled and nearby busi-nesses closed, revenue for the remainder of 2020 has dropped sharply.

As the only for-profit entity of the Grand Lodge of California, the primary mission of the Nob Hill Masonic Center is to ensure the efficient and effective operation of the California Masonic Memorial Temple garage and to generate an annual dividend for the Grand Lodge of California, our sole shareholder. Thanks to strong performance prior to March, we still predict a profit for this fiscal year, albeit smaller than in previous years. Fortunately, the NHMC will be able to tap into reserves built up over several years in order to meet its three-year dividend expectation to the grand lodge.

Since March, the garage has significantly adapted its operations to meet the new circumstances. By April 2020, revenues had fallen 70 percent as daily parking receipts evaporated and many monthly parkers moved out of the area. In response, the board reduced the garage’s operating costs to an absolute min-imum, including reducing personnel. Most importantly, it has sought out new revenue opportunities. In addition to focusing on increasing monthly parking with targeted outreach to the Nob Hill and Lower Nob Hill communities, the NHMC has explored opportunities to provide fleet parking opportunities for companies like Kyte, one of the newest and fastest-growing car-sharing services in the industry, which will park a fleet of its vehicles in the garage.

Beyond changing our business approach, the board has also focused on being a community resource during this challenging season. Early in the pandemic, the NHMC offered complimentary parking to medical staff and personnel at St. Francis Memorial Hospital, located two blocks away from the garage. Leaders of the NHMC volunteered time with the Nob Hill Association to help provide neighbors with information about the resources available to them and what businesses were in operation. Our relationship with the immediate community


is of the upmost importance to us, and this has been an opportunity for the NHMC to reinforce its commitment to it.

Bouncing back to normal will surely take time. Perhaps even more so than the financial declines of 2002 and 2008, full recovery for the parking industry will likely be protracted over a long period. The Nob Hill Masonic Center’s recovery plan has three phases. We are now moving from the first response phase to the second phase, stabilization. As of September, garage operations have begun to break even. As we look to the next fiscal year, the stabilization plan calls for the NHMC to continue with break-even operations, which will require continued new revenue sources and continued expense limitations. Our plan estimates that full recovery might begin in September 2021, or whenever live events are once again permitted to take place and attract large audiences.

In the midst of this recovery plan, the board of directors was able to con-tinue its strategic planning process, creating a vision for the future and a five-year plan. While still a work in progress, this plan focuses on our customers and their changing needs. We are looking beyond parking and recognizing our facility as an asset in the community. We will leverage partnerships, new ven-dors, and existing relationships to expand the services and conveniences we provide to the Nob Hill neighborhood. We’re looking at expanding our services. Waterless carwashes, Amazon package pickup and drop-off, laundry service, food and beverage options, and personal storage are a few of the ideas we’re exploring to take our services beyond parking and become an even greater asset to the community.

In summary, while the Nob Hill Masonic Center has been significantly impacted by COVID-19, our prior planning, quick response, and focus on new revenue opportunities will enable us to maintain our commitment to providing a significant dividend to the Grand Lodge of California, and we’re building a forward-thinking vision and plan for the future to ensure just that.

I would like to thank our grand lodge staff for all their hard work managing the operations of the garage, especially during these challenging times. Thank you to our fellow colleagues on the board of directors for the wisdom and counsel they have provided throughout the year.

Most Worshipful Trauner, it has been an honor and privilege for this year’s board to serve you and this grand lodge. We appreciate your support and con-tinue to pledge to achieve our ends policy of delivering the very best and highest dividend possible to the Grand Lodge of California. Thank you for the extraor-dinary leadership you have provided to the entire fraternity during one of the most challenging times in our history. We have been so fortunate to have you at the helm.

Most Worshipful, In accordance with California Masonic Code §406.035, the Grand Lodge Committee on Finance has reviewed the Resolutions to be considered at the 171st Annual Communication and has prepared the following estimate of the cost impact of each to grand lodge, if adopted.

The committee has reviewed Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 1, and Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 2 and finds that these pieces of legislation will not have a financial impact on the grand lodge budget.

Sincerely and fraternally yours,

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON INSURANCE

The Masons of California corporate insurance program, which includes coverage for lodge, hall, Masonic homes, Acacia Creek and Nob Hill with prop-erty, general liability, umbrella liability, earthquake, D&O, employment and crime insurance policies all renewed April 1,2020.

This has been as tough a renewal as last year. We continue to accept the several changes to insurance programs that were implemented last year, such as increased deductibles, lower limits, and insurers that have already paid out billions of dollars in fire and other catastrophic losses. As you will see, the insurance program continues to present challenges. This was a difficult and heavily negotiated renewal. Grand Lodge staff and the Insurance Committee worked diligently to look at cost saving areas as well as ideas beyond traditional insurance transactions. These included self-insurance, insurance captives, and other risk transfer methods.

During the last 48 months, insurers have incurred significant losses due to catastrophic fire events in California and elsewhere as we all are aware. As a result, insurers continue to set higher premium levels as well as tightening underwriting and policy terms. Last year, moving the halls to a higher deduct-ible resulted in far fewer losses being reported to the insurer. This is a good start. However, we will need several years of reduced losses, particularly the frequency of losses, if we are to have insurers review this exposure favorably. Until now, hall programs have tended to experience higher claims frequencies, causing insurers to review that part of our program unfavorably.

Our insurance broker, Marsh, reached out early and continuously to insur-ance markets and wholesale brokers. The interest from insurers was about the same as last year; good, but the diminished overall market loss conditions coupled with the complexity of our operations and claims frequency limited responses. Marsh navigated a difficult marketplace, but we are confident that we identified the most favorable coverages available to us.

Property Insurance Program Renewal

The renewed Hall, Grand Lodge/MH/AC/MCYF & Acacia Creek Property Program includes the following key terms and changes from last year include:


• Insurer: Lexington (no change from prior year).

• Limits: $200 million.

• Deductible: Halls: $25,000 All Other Entities: $100,000.

• Premium: $1,603,886 18.8% increase not including property value changes.

• Earthquake renewal premium for Acacia Creek was $200,000 increase of 33.3%

Casualty Program Renewal Nob Hill & Halls

This program covers general liability, E&O liability and auto liability for Nob Hill and halls. The renewed Program includes the following key information:

• Insurer: Travelers Insurance.

• Limits: $1.0 million occurrence, $2.0 million aggregate

• Deductible: $0

• Premium/Cost: $354,314 a 5% premium increase.

Umbrella Liability

This program covers losses in excess of the general liability limit of $1,000,000. The renewed program includes the following key information:

• Insurer: Travelers and Markel

• Limits: $5 Million Travelers,

• Limits: $10 Million Markel (was $20M last year)

• Deductible: $0

• Premium Cost: Travelers $71,051 an 11.5% premium increase. Markel policy $66,660 a 32% increase.

Management Liability Program

This Program includes directors & officer’s liability, crime and employment practices liability. The renewed program includes the following key information:

• Director & Officers and Employment Practices Liability, Insurer-Chubb, Limits-$3,000,000, Deductible-$25,000 for Lodges; $250,000 for all other entities.


• Crime, Insurer-Chubb, Limits-$3,000,000, Deductible-$100,000

• D&O Employment Halls, Insurer-Chubb Limits-$1,000,000, Deductible-$75,000/$250,000 split

deductible.

• Premium Cost: $28,000 increase over last year a 20% jump.

Casualty Program Renewal Masonic Homes/Acacia Creek/MCY&F

This program includes general liability and professional liability for all medical, homes-related and youth and family outreach exposures.

• Insurers: Chubb, Hiscox, Lexington and Lloyd’s of London.

• Limits: $5 Million Lloyd’s primary & $5 Million Lloyd’s Excess.

• Limits: Acacia Creek $1M Chubb Primary $4M Excess.

• Deductible: $0.

• Premium Cost: $512,713 a 15% premium increase.

Workers’ Compensation

The work comp policies provide the statutory coverage required to protect employees during the course & scope of their employment.

The work comp program was marketed with last year travelers being the most competitive.

• Insurer: Travelers

• Limits: Statutory

• Premium: 8% increase for deductible program and 43.5% reduction from last year for the first dollar policy.

• Deductibles: $0 and $250,000 for the large deductible program—same as expiring.

Conclusions

The property program increase in deductibles continue to create challenges for the organization. The condition of roofs and window/door caulking are those areas that should be focused on by each hall. The Insurance Committee cannot stress enough that this is not a one-year occurrence. Therefore, hall


management should focus on deferred maintenance and starting a preventative maintenance program immediately.

The casualty program was moved from Liberty Ins. Co. to Travelers Ins. Co. two years ago. This is a new relationship, and our goal is to continue to try to leverage this into a discussion about the property program in the future.

Overall, the program was renewed in what continues to be very difficult and hardening market conditions. Insurers are facing huge losses from cli-mate change; fires, hurricanes, flooding, and these are happening on a more frequent and severe basis. We see no changes in this trend. Sometimes these circumstances see an influx of new money as was noted last year but we have yet to see that. Overall, we will continue to work with our Broker Marsh to push underwriters to provide the best terms possible. In addition, work must continue with halls to help them better understand the need to provide realistic replacement cost values and understand good housekeeping directly relates to reduced premiums.

REPORT OF THE INVESTMENT COMMITTEE

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, F. & A. M. of California:

Overview

The Investment Committee has been charged with the prudent handling of grand lodge investment funds. These funds consist primarily of the General and Endowment funds for the Masonic Homes of California, but also include the investment portfolios of the California Masonic Foundation, California Masonic Memorial Temple, and the grand lodge itself.

The financial objectives for these funds we steward are laid out in our approved Investment Policy Statement:

The primary objectives of the funds are to provide a regular and reliable source of financial support to the Masonic entity or its beneficiaries, while preserving the purchasing power of the funds after withdrawals are taken.

In plain English, we are tasked to make sure that the homes, the founda-tion, and all entities that are entrusting their funds to our care can expect to receive a reasonable income, while their principle keeps pace with expected inflation over time.

As a simple example, if one of the entities wanted to be able to rely on a 4.5% distribution from their money, we know we’d have to earn at least that by investing. If we also expected inflation to be 2% per year on average (eroding purchasing power of the principal), we’d know that we ALSO want to grow the principle by 2% per year on average. We’d then know that we needed to build a portfolio that could reasonably be expected to return 6.5% over the long-term (4.5% spending + 2% inflation).

This example, while simple, is actually very close to the actual numbers used to form our return goals for the grand lodge investments.

The job of the committee, then, is to build the portfolio with the best chance of accomplishing that return goal over the long-term, while exposing the portfolio to the least risk needed to attain that goal.

While the committee is comprised of diligent financial professionals who


are astute in portfolio construction and global economics themselves; we also employ the use of a robust investment consultant team that help us quantify and evaluate the metrics of our portfolio and model the mix of investments that give us the greatest likelihood of achieving those goals.

Grand Lodge & Related Entity Investment Performance for the year ended June 30, 2020:

The Total Grand Lodge and Related Entities portfolio earned a rate of return of 0.5% for the year ending June 30, 2020. Considering the extreme turbulence in March that came out of fears relating to Coronavirus shutdowns, the diversification of the portfolio served us well. The total fund policy bench-mark during the same period was up 2.1%. The market value of the Total Grand Lodge and Related Entities portfolio as of June 30, 2020, was $949,317,862. For the three-year period ending June 30, 2020, the combined Grand Lodge and Related Entities returned 4.1% versus 5.0% for the benchmark. Since inception, our funds have returned 7.2% annually versus 7.5% return of the benchmark.

Asset Class Returns for June 30, 2019-2020

Asset Class Policy Percentage 1 Yr. Return* Benchmark Return**

US Equity 19% 0.2% 6.5% Non-US Equity 10% 2.2% -4.8% Global Equity 15% 5.4% 2.1% Emerging Markets Equity 6% -0.9% -3.4% Fixed Income 15% 7.5% 4.2% Hedge Funds 12% -1.9% -0.5% Global Asset Allocation 6% -7.2% 7.1% Private Real Estate/ Real Assets 6% -7.1% *** Private Equity 5% 3.7% -0.8% Private Debt 6% 7.6% 2.2% Opportunistic Investments 0% -35.7% ***

* Return methodology reported through our Investwwment consultant and supporting slides and disclosures have been submitted.

** Each asset class has its own benchmark, a description of these can be found in the supporting slides.

*** Benchmarks for these categories are not set by category, but are determined by the underlying investment relevance, and are provided in the Investment Performance Report.

The Investment Committee has arrived at this investment policy through careful study of the returns and risk associated with alternative investment strategies in relation to the current and projected income needs of each fund. This policy has been chosen as the most appropriate policy for achieving the financial objectives of the funds and remained static this year.


Year in Review Activity

Investment Managers Hired:

We believe that a disciplined manager selection process will result in a higher probability of hiring superior managers. We believe that past performance is an unreliable predictor of future success and is only one of many factors that should be used in the selection process.

Global Equity

• Lindsell Train Global Equity

Emerging Markets Equity

• Axiom Emerging Markets Fund

Hedge Funds

• Renaissance Equity Fund

Investment Managers Terminated:

Once managers have been thoroughly vetted and consistently monitored, as long as the manager’s investment style is still part of our overall investment thesis, it is relatively rare that a manager gets terminated, unless we have adjusted the positioning of the portfolio. In the last three years, we have, indeed, made several positioning changes. Much of the change comes from our positive effort to create a private markets portion of the portfolio.

As part of our fundamental philosophy, stated in our Investment Policy Statement:

“We believe that manager turnover is very expensive and extremely disruptive to the efficient and productive operation of an investment program. Managers should be hired with a long-run view… We also believe that constant and/or rapid turnover of managers, justified solely on the basis of relative underperformance is usually an indication of a lack of adherence to the selection and retention process. In particular, short-term (generally less than one year) underperformance should not be a reason for termination, unless it is accompanied by other adverse key retention characteristics.”

Grand Lodge Investment Management

In order to fulfill our responsibilities in accordance with the Grand Lodge Investment Policy and Philosophy, the Investment Committee meets quarterly with our investment consultant, NEPC, LLC. We also meet with our individual portfolio managers as needed and review due diligence reports quarterly from the consultants. We monitor the respective performance of the managers com-pared to various indices representing their objective. This process provides the Investment Committee with the necessary data to evaluate each investment manager on a timely basis, and to observe whether they continue to achieve the objectives of their mandate.

The committee also holds ad-hoc conference calls (as needed) to discuss any outstanding business or discuss the implementation of tactical changes within the portfolio.

Your Grand Lodge Investment Committee is also available to assist individ-ual lodges in determining appropriate investment strategies. We are also here to help lodges establish a set of policies and procedures that are designed to ensure assets are invested according to the needs of the lodge and to safeguard against the misuse of funds. Investment Committee members continue to make themselves available to the lodges for assistance with this program and other questions regarding lodge investments.

Summary

I am honored to present this report on behalf of the Investment Committee of the Grand Lodge of California. They continue to work with much fervency and zeal to ensure that your assets are properly stewarded, and I am glad to have their efforts and dedication. I want to thank Very Worshipful Glenn Woody and Worshipful Eric Hatfield, both long-time and dedicated stewards of the resources entrusted to the oversight of the committee, for their service. Thank you for allowing me to serve as chair this year, it is both an honor and a privilege to work with all the gentlemen on the committee.

I want to thank Julia Gordon for her tireless work supporting all of our


committees, Very Worshipful Arthur L. Salazar Jr., Tom Boyer and Linh Pham, who manage the day to day flows and intricacies of the assets of our related entities. Thank you.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON JURISPRUDENCE

To the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge, F. & A.M. of California:

The Committee on Jurisprudence serves as the legal adviser to the Grand Master and the legal adviser to the Grand Lodge when in session. The Committee reviews proposed resolutions and recommendations to be considered at the next Annual Communication and prepares any necessary legislation to carry out the intent of the proponents. At the Annual Communication, it comments on the legality of the Grand Master’s decisions and dispensations and on the legal effect of the proposed recommendations and resolutions. After the Annual Communication, it prepares the changes to the California Masonic Code to reflect the legislation which was adopted.

Grand Master Trauner’s Decisions and Dispensations

In the Committee’s view, those of Grand Master Trauner’s decisions and dispensations coming to its attention were legal and within his discretion. We comment specifically on two of those decisions.

Grand Master Trauner’s Decision No. 1: Masonic Events During COVID-19

On March 18, 2020, the Grand Master issued a decision entitled “Masonic Events During COVID-19 - Gathering Restrictions,” a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A. Based on the “shelter in place” orders being issued at the time, the Grand Master directed that there be no Masonic gatherings of any kind in this state until further direction was received from him. This directive included all Masonic Organizations and Masonic Youth Orders. He provided a limited exception for Masonic Funeral and Burial Services. He also provided a proce-dure for a majority of the elected lodge officers to advance lodge funds to pay those essential lodge bills whose payment could not reasonably be deferred, conditioned on the lodge ratifying these advances at its next stated meeting. He specifically included expenditures by the lodge charity committee as essential


lodge bills for which payment should not be deferred. He expanded this decision on May 6, 2020 to permit these elected lodge leaders to advance funds to remit dues when recommended by the charity committee. He later allowed lodges to defer until September the decision to suspend Masons for nonpayment of dues as of the June 30th per capita assessment date and gave the Master acting alone the power to suspend Masons for nonpayment if the notification and other requirements of the Code had been met.

In prohibiting all Masonic gatherings of any kind in this state until further direction was received from him, the Grand Master was simply directing lodges, Masonic Organizations and Masonic Youth Groups to obey a prohibition from competent state authority, a direction clearly authorized by our law and within his discretion.

The portion of the Grand Master’s decision authorizing a majority of the elected lodge officers to advance lodge funds to pay essential lodge bills was based on a similar Grand Lodge rule found in CMC §403.095:

If assembling the required number of persons for holding an Annual Communication is prohibited by competent state or national authority, the power of Grand Lodge to appropriate money, assess its Constituent Lodges, approve acts of its Constituent Lodges and review trial records may be exercised by a majority of the elected officers of Grand Lodge. The elective officers of Grand Lodge shall continue in their respective offices until the Annual Communication following rescission of the prohibition.

As the Grand Lodge elected officers may conduct essential Grand Lodge business without an Annual Communication, when such an assembly is barred by competent authority, Grand Master Trauner authorized the conduct of essential lodge business without a stated meeting, using a comparable procedure. We note that, during intervals between Annual Communications of Grand Lodge, the Grand Master may exercise all executive powers of the Grand Lodge. CMC §404.120.A. In our view, the executive power of the Grand Lodge includes the power to take reasonable action proportional to the circumstances to protect lodges and lodge members during an emergency. In our view, the Grand Master acted appropriately to protect lodges and lodge members in this decision by authorizing payment of essential lodge bills while lodges were barred by com-petent state authority from meeting.

Based on the foregoing analysis, it is the Committee’s view that Grand Master Trauner’s Decision No. 1 was legal and within his discretion. We note that Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 1, if adopted, would replace the need for the procedures authorized in this decision. Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 1 if adopted would authorize virtual lodge stated and special meetings during future emergencies to conduct most all lodge business.

We note that the Grand Master’s authorization to advance lodge funds to


pay essential bills was conditioned on the lodge ratifying these advances at its next stated meeting. We assume that the incoming Grand Master will direct these ratifications once stated meetings may be held.

Grand Master Trauner’s Decision No. 2: Virtual Annual Communication

The Grand Master decided to hold this 171st Annual Communication vir-tually. This decision raised a number of questions.

The usages of Ancient Craft Masonry do not allow the secrets of Masonry to be communicated in a group setting unless the assembly has been tiled. The Grand Master found no currently available technology to limit to recognized Master Masons all access to computer screens displaying our virtual Annual Communication. Our Grand Lodge opening ceremony includes the secrets of Masonry. Thus, may a Communication of our Grand Lodge be conducted without using the Grand Lodge opening ceremony or without being held in a tiled Lodge of Master Masons? We note that a number of Grand Lodges in the Conference of Grand Masters of North America meet in hotel and other such meeting spaces where there is no Masonic Communication. We also note that the Grand Lodge opening, although ritualistic in nature, is not part of the Ritual but one of our Grand Lodge Ceremonies which can be and has been changed in the past by the Grand Master only in consultation with the Grand Lecturer. See CMC §§100.040, 100.085. There is nothing in our law which mandates its use or its form. Therefore, in our view, an Annual Communication of our Grand Lodge may be opened, business conducted and the Communication closed without any Masonic Communication or other part of the Ritual. The Grand Master may simply verify the presence of a quorum, declare the Annual Communication open and proceed with the proposed agenda.

CMC §403.025 PROVIDES:

The officers or representatives of at least 20% of the Lodges char-tered and constituted by this Grand Lodge shall be present in order to transact any business in Grand Lodge at an Annual or Special Communication. No member of Grand Lodge shall be represented therein by proxy.

Does being present electronically count toward satisfying the quorum requirements of CMC §403.025? If so, what are the minimal requirements for such an electronic presence? What software and hardware are available to satisfy these minimal requirements? Under California Corporations Code Sec 7510(f), a member is present for a members meeting of a nonprofit corporation if the meeting is conducted, in whole or in part, by electronic transmission or by elec-tronic video screen communication, if reasonable measures provide members a reasonable opportunity to participate in the meeting and to vote on matters


submitted to the members, including an opportunity to read or hear the pro-ceedings of the meeting substantially concurrently with those proceedings, and if any member votes or takes other action at the meeting by means of electronic transmission to the corporation or electronic video screen communication, a record of that vote or action is maintained by the corporation. In our view, it was within the discretion of the Grand Master to rely on this provision of California civil law to interpret the California Masonic Code. The Grand Master has found that the Zoom Webinar platform, being used for the 171st Annual Communication, meets this standard and is accessible to any registered delegate who has access to a computer or a telephone. The Grand Master has also found that most every possible delegate to this Annual Communication either has or can obtain access to a computer or a telephone to gain this access. In our view, these findings were within the discretion of the Grand Master.

Finally, we note CMC §403.095 discussed above which allows the elected officers of the Grand Lodge to conduct the items of essential business listed when assembling the required number of persons for holding an Annual Communication is prohibited by competent state or national authority. On October 10, 2020, the day of this Annual Communication, competent state authority barred an in person Annual Communication in San Francisco. All actions which will have been conducted at the 171st Annual Communications could have been effected by a majority of the elected Grand Lodge Officers, other than adopting Grand Master Trauner’s recommendations and the elec-tion of officers. By holding this Communication virtually, the Grand Master has made available to all Master Masons the process otherwise limited to the elected Grand Lodge officers.

Based on the foregoing analysis, it is the Committee’s view that Grand Master Trauner’s Decision No. 2 was legal and within his discretion. In our view, the Grand Master did not issue this decision to make the virtual Annual Communication the new normal after the COVID-19 pandemic passes nor as an alternative to use unless there is a situation comparable in severity to the present COVID-19 pandemic.

We understand that the elected Grand Lodge officers will have executed the approval described in CMC §403.095 before the election of officers at the 171st Annual Communication. We recommend that a resolution be introduced for consideration at the 172nd Annual Communication approving any and all actions taken at the 171st Annual Communication, such resolution to be consid-ered and adopted satisfying the same formalities as any proposed amendment to the California Masonic Code.

Proposed Recommendations and Resolutions

If adopted, Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 2 would defer consideration of all resolutions submitted by the April 13, 2020 deadline and all carryover legislation from the 170th Annual Communication. These reso-lutions and carryover legislation are attached as Exhibit B to preserve them


for the record. In the Committee’s view, the matters attached as Exhibit B are sufficient to carry out the intent of the proponents. The legislation contained in Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 1, Conduct of Certain Lodge Business During Emergencies, and in Grand Master Trauner’s Recommendation No. 2, Deferral of Legislation to the 172nd Annual Communication, which he will present in his message, are sufficient to carry out his intent. We believe that each matter attached as Exhibit B and the legislation contained in the Grand Master’s recommendations has the legal effect set forth in it.

In presenting the legislation attached as Exhibit B, we make no recom-mendations as to the action to be taken you with it. While the Committee has written the title and introductory explanation for each resolution attached as Exhibit B and assisted the proponents in drafting the Code changes required to effect their intent, the proponents’ arguments in their whereas clauses are their own. The Committee does not assist in drafting the whereas clauses and makes no comments on them.

The legislation contained in Grand Master Trauner’s recommendations require no separate motion because it is automatically before this Annual Communication. Because the legislation in the Grand Master’s recommen-dations would amend the California Masonic Code, they must be adopted by a five-sixths affirmative vote. If an item receives a simple majority but less than a five-sixths affirmative vote, it carries over to the next Annual Communication when only a two-thirds affirmative vote is required for adoption.

Committee Actions on Unmasonic Conduct

The Committee reviews all charges and specifications of unmasonic con-duct, strikes out those portions which are not supported by a clear and precise specification of unmasonic conduct and revises those portions which are incor-rect, ambiguous or insufficient. The Committee may dismiss charges if all the facts set forth in the specifications, even if true, would not warrant a verdict of unmasonic conduct. As part of its review, the Committee provides the par-ties with every essential factual element which must be proven at trial for the Accused to be found guilty of each charge. Since the last Annual Communication, the Committee commented on the charges and specifications in seven trials, few than in prior years because of COVID-19.

If a Mason under the disciplinary jurisdiction of this Grand Lodge has pleaded guilty or nolo contendere (or no contest) to, or has been convicted of, a crime of moral turpitude by a federal or state court, he shall be deemed automatically expelled from all the rights and privileges of Masonry without any further action of his Lodge or Grand Lodge. The Committee reviews a certified copy of the record of conviction to determine whether there has been an automatic expulsion. Since the last Annual Communication, the Committee has reviewed five federal or state court records to evaluate whether there has been an automatic expulsion of the Mason involved in the proceeding. These matters are summarized in the attached Exhibit C.


No person shall hold or be eligible for membership in any Constituent Lodge who has pleaded guilty or nolo contendere to, or has been convicted of, a crime involving a violation of the moral law unless, for the reason that he did not commit the offense, he either has been pardoned or had his judgment of conviction vacated or reversed. All applicants are subject to background checks to determine compliance with this rule. Since the last Annual Communication, the Grand Secretary has asked the Committee to review no federal or state court records to evaluate whether an applicant is eligible for the degrees.

Two members of the Committee served on the Task Force on Trials Before Commissioners. As a result of that service, two recommendations were prepared by a member of the Committee for Grand Master Trauner’s consideration. These recommendations propose changes to our Masonic discipline rules which were beyond the scope of the work assigned to the Task Force so were presented outside the Task Force report. A member of the Committee and two others have introduced Resolution 20-03 proposing a change to our Masonic discipline rules which was beyond the scope of the work assigned to the Task Force.

We thank the Grand Master for the opportunity which he has given us to serve this year.

Submitted this 10th day of October, 2020.

Respectfully submitted,R. Stephen Doan, P.G.M., Chairman

Exhibit C

Automatic Expulsions

October 19, 2019 to October 10, 2020

Trial No. 2784

In Trial No. 2784, the member pled no contest to a violation of California Penal Code Section 487(a). This section provides that “Grand theft is theft committed …[w]hen the money, labor, or real or personal property taken is of value exceeding nine hundred fifty dollars ($950).” Under Section 100.075 of the California Masonic Code and 2009 Grand Master’s Decision No. 2, larceny involves moral turpitude. In the Committee’s opinion, the conduct described in California Penal Code Section 487(a) involves larceny. Therefore, based on the court record and the foregoing analysis, it is the judgment of a majority of the members of the Committee on Jurisprudence that the member pled no contest to a crime of moral turpitude before a state court. Accordingly, the member was automatically expelled from all the rights and privileges of Masonry pursuant to Section 1404.820 of the California Masonic Code. His expulsion from Masonry was effective on December 5, 2019, the date he entered his plea of no contest.

Trial No. 2789

In Trial No. 2789, the member pled no contest to a violation of California Penal Code Section 311.11(A). This section provides that any person who “know-ingly possesses or controls any matter, representation of information, data, or image…that contains or incorporates in any manner, any film or filmstrip, the production of which involves the use of a person under 18 years of age, knowing that the matter depicts a person under 18 years of age personally engaging in or simulating sexual conduct…is guilty of a felony.” Under Section 100.075 of the California Masonic Code and 2009 Grand Master’s Decision No. 2, possession of child pornography involves moral turpitude. In the Committee’s opinion, the conduct described in California Penal Code Section 311.11(A) involves possession of child pornography. Therefore, based on the court record and the foregoing analysis, it is the judgment of a majority of the members of the Committee on Jurisprudence that the member pled no contest to a crime of moral turpitude


before a state court. Accordingly, the member was automatically expelled from all the rights and privileges of Masonry pursuant to Section 1404.820 of the California Masonic Code. His expulsion from Masonry was effective on July 16, 2019, the date he entered his plea of no contest.

Trial No. 2849

In Trial No. 2849, the member was convicted of a violation of 18 U.S.C. §§157(1) and (2), among others. 18 U.S.C. §157 provides as follows:

A person who, having devised or intending to devise a scheme or artifice to defraud and for the purpose of executing or concealing such a scheme or artifice or attempting to do so—

(1) files a petition under title 11, including a fraudulent involuntary petition under section 303 of such title;

(2) files a document in a proceeding under title 11; or(3) makes a false or fraudulent representation, claim, or promise

concerning or in relation to a proceeding under title 11, at any time before or after the filing of the petition, or in relation to a proceeding falsely asserted to be pending under such title, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.

Under Section 100.075 of the California Masonic Code and 2009 Grand Master’s Decision No. 2, fraud involves moral turpitude. In the Committee’s opinion, the conduct described in 18 U.S.C. §157 involves fraud. Therefore, based on the court record and the foregoing analysis, it is the judgment of a majority of the members of the Committee on Jurisprudence that the member was convicted of a crime of moral turpitude before a federal court. Accordingly, the member was automatically expelled from all the rights and privileges of Masonry pursuant to Section 1404.820 of the California Masonic Code. His expulsion from Masonry was effective on June 21, 2019, the date of his conviction.

Trial No. 2873

In Trial No. 2873, the member pled no contest to a violation of California Penal Code Section 470(c). This section provides that “every person who, with intent to defraud, alters, corrupts, or falsifies any record of any will, codicil, conveyance of other instrument, the record of which is by law evidence, or any record of any judgement of a court or the return of any officer to any process of any court, is guilty of forgery.” Under Section 100.075 of the California Masonic Code and 2009 Grand Master’s Decision No. 2, forgery involves moral turpi-tude. In the Committee’s opinion, the conduct described in California Penal Code Section 470(c) involves forgery. Therefore, based on the court record


and the foregoing analysis, it is the judgment of a majority of the members of the Committee on Jurisprudence that the member pled no contest to a crime of moral turpitude before a state court. Accordingly, the member was auto-matically expelled from all the rights and privileges of Masonry pursuant to Section 1404.820 of the California Masonic Code. His expulsion from Masonry was effective on March 20, 2019, the date he entered his plea of no contest.

Trial No. 2877

In Trial No. 2877, the member pled guilty to violations of California Penal Code §288(a). California Penal Code §288(a) provides “a person who willfully and lewdly commits any lewd or lascivious act…upon or with the body, or any part of member thereof, of a child who is under the age of 14 years, with the intent of arousing, appealing to, or gratifying the lust, passions, or sexual desires of that person or the child, is guilty of a felony.” Under Section 100.075 of the California Masonic Code and 2009 Grand Master’s Decision No. 2, lewdness involves moral turpitude. In the Committee’s opinion, the conduct described in California Penal Code §288(a) involves lewdness. Therefore, based on the court record and the foregoing analysis, it is the judgment of a majority of the members of the Committee on Jurisprudence that the member pled guilty to crimes of moral turpitude before a state court. Accordingly, the member was expelled from all the rights and privileges of Masonry pursuant to Section 1404.820 of the California Masonic Code. His expulsion from Masonry was effec-tive on January 19, 2018, the date he entered his plea of guilty.


REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON TRIAL REVIEW

Brethren, your Committee on Trial Review has carefully examined the records of all cases completed during this Masonic year. In each of the matters, the committee finds that there was compliance with the procedural requirements of the California Masonic Code. All committee decisions were by a majority vote of the members of the Committee.

In case numbers 2850 through 2854, the facts arose out of the same trans-actions, and the cases were consolidated. The five accused members were charged with Misappropriation of Funds, Breach of Fiduciary Duty, Failure to Obtain Masonic Properties Committee Approval for Hall Association Construction, and Disobedience of a Grand Master’s Edict. Three committee members recused themselves in Case Number 2850, and one member recused himself in all five cases.

Although the charges of un-Masonic conduct arose out of the same trans-action, the trial master found that the accused in each case had substantially differing degrees of culpability resulting in the imposition of different penalties.

The brethren of a recently consolidated lodge voted to sell the prior lodge building. Over $705,000 was generated from the sale of the building and was deposited into a hall association checking account solely controlled by the accused in cases 2852, 2853 and 2854. The trial master found that the funds were improperly placed in the hall association accounts rather than the lodge’s accounts as required by law. Within three months of receiving the $705,000, the three accused had signed a total of 21 checks, all written in round numbers, equaling $435,800 to a construction company. There were no bids, requests for proposals, construction contracts, or any of the expected documentation supporting any of the $435,800. Within one year, all but the nominal amount of approximately $3,800 in sale proceeds had been depleted by the three accused.

The trial master found that the project was performed under conditions which were inconsistent with any semblance of protection for the lodge funds in violation of a fiduciary duty.

The trial master found that in a further act of fraud to cover-up the scheme, the accuseds in case numbers 2853 and 2854 altered and destroyed 10 months of lodge minutes and substituted fraudulent minutes. The accused in Case Number 2854 also refused to provide hall association minutes in original format despite


reasonable demands. The trial master therefore found that the hall association minutes were not credible.

In Case No. 2853, the accused entered a plea of guilty and offered a state-ment in mitigation. The accused in case numbers 2852 and 2854 refused to participate, and the trial master proceeded by investigation against each of them. The accused in case numbers 2850 and 2851 entered into stipulations of facts with the accuser and agreed that they had breached their fiduciary duties. Accordingly, no trial was held, and the trial master performed an investigation of the charges.

The trial master reviewed 5,000 pages of documents, including three years of bank statements and hall and lodge minutes. The trial master also interviewed numerous members of the consolidated lodges.

In case numbers 2852, 2853, and 2854, the trial master found that each of the accused were guilty and that the acts constituted moral turpitude and accordingly fixed the penalty at expulsion.

The trial master accepted the stipulation of the parties and found that the accused in 2850 was guilty of breach of his fiduciary duties and failure to obtain Masonic Properties Committee approval for the construction project and was found not guilty of misappropriation of funds and disobedience of a grand master’s edict.

The trial master found that the accused in 2850 was not directly involved in the scheme of the three other brethren. The trial master determined that while the scheme was being pursued by the three accused in 2852, 2853, and 2854, the accused in 2850, who was then serving as master of the lodge, was suffering major continuing medical and cognitive issues which contributed to his failure to act. There were several instances when the accused should have been aware of the misfeasance of the other three whom he trusted. While he expressed his objection to isolated acts when he was made aware, the trial master believed that due to his impairments, he failed or appeared to be unable to explore the misconduct. The accused in case number 2850 is the only one to have expressed real remorse for his failure to act.

The trial master fixed his penalty at two months suspension and that the accused not serve in the future as an elected or appointed officer, director, or trustee of any hall association or constituent lodge.

In Case Number 2851, the parties stipulated that the accused moved from the area and did not attend any lodge or hall association meetings beginning in March 2017. The parties also agreed that some actions had been taken by the accused in case numbers 2852, 2853 and 2854 of which the accused should have been aware before he relocated and accordingly that the accused breached his fiduciary duties which he owed to the lodge and the hall association by failing to act upon his knowledge.

Because the minutes of the lodge were altered and the minutes of the hall association also were not credible, the trial master accepted the stipulations of the parties as to the last meeting attended by the accused. The trial master also


discovered that the accused remained suspended for non-payment of his dues. The trial master determined that in Case Number 2851 the accused was

guilty of breach of fiduciary duty and failure to obtain grand lodge approval of the construction project and fixed the penalty at one month suspension to commence immediately upon the date, if any, that he is restored to membership by payment of his dues. The trial master further ordered that after completion of the one-month suspension, that the accused shall not serve as an officer, appointed or elected, director or trustee of any hall association or constituent lodge for a period of five years.

In Case Number 2860, in specification number one, the accused was charged with misrepresentation on his application for degrees for failing to reveal that a conviction for possession of cannabis, which he did reveal, was classified as a felony. He also was charged in specification number two of committing a criminal act by violating his probation by fleeing the scene of a suspected drug transaction.

The trial master, sitting without commissioners, found that the accused was not guilty of the first charge. The Trial Review Committee agrees with the trial master’s finding of not guilty. The fact that a criminal offense reported by an applicant is a felony or misdemeanor is not relevant in evaluating his suitability for membership in that the ultimate question should be the nature of the crime, and therefore, the classification of the crime as a felony or misdemeanor is not a material misrepresentation as required by the California Masonic Code for the offense charged.

The second charge consisted of criminal charges which are still pending in criminal court and accordingly the trial master dismissed the charge without prejudice to the matter being filed once the pending criminal case is adjudicated.

In Case Number 2864, the accused was charged with affiliation with an orga-nization contrary to the tenets of Freemasonry, and with distribution online of videos denouncing the basic tenets of Masonry and revealing its esoteric work.

The accused did not respond to the charges served upon him, and the trial master proceeded to perform the required investigation.

The trial master found that the accused formed and led a clandestine organization to which he invited other Freemasons to attend and in which the accused promoted ideologies of Lucifer and anti-Semitic beliefs. The accused also wrote a book espousing the same ideologies of Lucifer and his support for Adolph Hitler, Nazism, and Anti-Semitism. The trial master additionally found that the accused openly rejected the canons of Freemasonry and the oaths of his Masonic obligations.

The trial master found the accused guilty of both charges with no mitigating circumstances and fixed the penalty at expulsion.

In Case Number 2861, the accused is charged that, while acting as the recorder of a California Shrine temple, he embezzled over $230,000 from its Hospital Transportation Fund.

The accused pled “no contest” and admitted in writing that he had prepared


false invoices for Shriner’s patients and families for non-existent hotels, meals and flight costs, and then claimed he had paid them through his personal credit card for which he obtained reimbursement. He used the embezzled funds for his own personal use, and no benefit to Shrine or its patients or families. When dis-covered, the accused paid these sums back to the Hospital Transportation Fund.

The trial master found the accused guilty and fixed the penalty at expulsion.In Case Number 2875, the accused was charged with committing criminal

battery on the fiancé of a Mason. After a “no contest” response, the trial master performed the required investigation.

The trial master found that the accused arrived at a post-installation party intoxicated, and by the time of the incident, was extremely intoxicated and nearly passed-out when those present tried to get him to leave. He accidently struck the victim in the nose causing bleeding. The fiancé sent a notarized letter stating that she believed that “it was not done with any malice.”

The trial master found that the accused profusely apologized to the fiancé and others and on multiple occasions expressed his remorse.

The trial master found the accused guilty of battery and fixed the penalty at suspension for an indefinite period, and as a condition of reinstatement required that the accused provide reasonable evidence of completion of an alcohol rehabilitation program.

The Committee on Trial Review submits and moves the adoption of the following resolution: “Resolved that in case numbers 2850 through 2854, 2860, 2864, 2861, 2875, the trial master’s findings and penalty where applicable be affirmed.”

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON YOUTH ORDERS

To the Most Worshipful Grand Master, John Trauner, and the members of the Grand Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons of California:

Most of us recognize that the youth of today are our future, not only within Freemasonry, but also in our greater society. We also know the world needs the values that our Masonic family shares. California Freemasonry has long real-ized that by fostering the development and growth of our three Masonic Youth Orders (Job’s Daughters, Rainbow for Girls, and DeMolay), we are improving our world.

Your Grand Lodge Committee on Youth Orders is charged with ensuring that our lodges and members continue to support our youth orders by providing the necessary leadership and assistance to aid in their success.

Following our long-term strategic plan, the committee is specifically focused on:

• Supporting our three Masonic youth orders, their members, and advisors

• Serving as a liaison between our youth orders and Masonry

• Encouraging and developing youth orders advisors within the family of Freemasonry

• Recognizing exemplary performance.

In order to accomplish these objectives, we have divided the committee into sub-committees and task forces. These teams work behind the scenes and in between our meetings to fulfill our objectives.

In this year of pandemic, we have taken advantage of the downtime to prepare for how to emerge from the shutdown with reinvigorated youth orders. We have created a pandemic recovery team. We are also working in specific parts of the state to develop new, as well as support existing, chapters, bethels, and assemblies.

We continue to coordinate with the Masonic Center for Youth and Families (MCYAF) to identify our youth in need, and reach out to stretch forth a helping


hand where we can. Especially during this difficult period when we all miss our in-person connections, we are grateful to Kimberly Rich, Dr. Sheening Lin, and their amazing staff who are providing the youth and their advisors the tools to cope with many of the world’s challenges, including bullying, stress manage-ment, depression, and anxiety.

The committee also continues to embrace its role as the facilitator of the Masonic Adult Youth Orders (MAYO) meetings throughout the year. These meetings are attended and supported by the leadership of the York Rite and Scottish Rite bodies, Eastern Star and Amaranth.

Grand Master’s Youth Order Support Award

The Youth Orders Committee was pleased to recommend the following brethren to receive the Grand Master’s Youth Support Award:

• Jobs Daughter’s International Wor. William M. Ferrell, Crow Canyon Lodge No. 551

• International Order of Rainbow for Girls Bro. Gregory J. Stille, Woodland No. 81

• DeMolay, Southern California Jurisdiction Wor. Harry A. Thomas, Mill Valley No. 356

• DeMolay, Northern California Jurisdiction Bro. Andrew J. Ford, Liberty No. 299

Each brother selected by the grand master to receive the award in recogni-tion of his outstanding commitment and service to our Masonic youth and was so honored (virtually) during the public ceremonies of Annual Communication on Sunday, October 11, 2020.

We can all take extreme pride in the fact that Brett Gimm, Past Master Councilor of NorCal DeMolay, was elected to serve as International Master Councilor of DeMolay International in June. There is no doubt he will make a difference for the order in his many (virtual) travels across the globe. Once again, our California youth orders are making their mark on the international stage.

We look forward to supporting Rainbow for Girls as they observe their centennial in 2022, as we did Job’s Daughters this year, and DeMolay in 2019. These are terrific opportunities to celebrate our accomplishments and share the good works of each order with the public.

As with Masonry, our youth orders are struggling for membership. The big difference is their members age out, whereas ours can remain for decades. They desperately need our help, and they need it today. I call on every California Mason to proactively contact a member of one or more of the youth orders to see how they can assist their efforts. It may be as simple as serving as a chaper-one, recommending the young men and women in your life to consider joining, or becoming an advisor.


The committee members are grateful to each of the adult leaders of our California youth orders, who continue to provide the leadership and mentor-ship that has elevated the California youth orders to the top of their respective international organizations.

We are also appreciative of the confidence placed in us by Most Worshipful Trauner and look forward to working closely with Most Worshipful Weiss and the rest of the Grand Lodge Executive Committee.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CALIFORNIA FREEMASON

The California Freemason Magazine Committee provides guidance and feedback to, and offers editorial direction and brainstorming for, the staff of California Freemason, the flagship publication of the Masons of California both in print and online.

This year, the committee was pleased to have participated in important discussions about the editorial and design direction of the magazine. Together with grand lodge communications staff, we reviewed concepts for ways to improve and refresh the magazine. After several months of planning, the produc-tion and design of the magazine was brought in-house to the communications team for the first time. The result of the strategic and creative planning was a newly unveiled magazine section, “The Mosaic,” that includes a diverse range of topical, short-form stories about Masons and Masonry today.

The shift in both tone and substance was reflected in the editorial themes the magazine pursued in 2019–2020: Masonic folk art in the United States (Sept/Oct 2019); Masonry’s revival in California’s Gold Country (Nov/Dec 2019); the history and future of Public Schools Month at its centennial (March/April 2020); the legacy of Masonic relief in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic and destructive wildfires (May/June 2020); in recognition of the 100th anniversary of Job’s Daughters, a look at Masonry’s influence on the sacred bond between fathers and daughters (July/Aug 2020); and finally, our first-ever “noir” issue (Sept/Oct 2020).

These themes expanded the magazine’s breadth of coverage to include urgent issues like the fraternity’s response to COVID-19 and the state lockdown, while at the same time making room for lively and unexpected stories, like that of the San Francisco Mason and film noir buff living in Dashiell Hammet’s former apartment.

In addition to this editorial shift, California Freemason has improved its online presence dramatically, beginning in May 2019 with the launch of califor-niafreemason.org, a new and improved website for the magazine that is already helping us reach new audiences and highlight the wonderful photography, design, and writing that distinguishes our magazine.

Encouragingly, those efforts were recognized with two EXCEL awards at the annual Association Media Publishing conference: a bronze in the single-topic


magazine category for the Crafting Their Legacy issue and silver for magazine website. Even more important, however, is the feedback we’ve received from members of the fraternity who have responded with overwhelmingly positive comments to our new direction—one that places more and more emphasis on them and their stories.

Over the coming year, even more changes are afoot with California Freemason. The biggest is that the magazine is transitioning from a 6-times-per-year cadence to a quarterly print schedule. This move will allow each of our four issues of the magazine to be longer, include richer content—from photography to design to feature articles and more—and feel even more elevated. We’re con-tinuing to push forward with bold editorial and design directions and hope to better integrate the magazine with the other, emerging digital communications and content channels from the grand lodge.

The Grand Lodge of California is an exemplar among Masonic jurisdictions in the world; fittingly, our signature publication will continue to reflect—and push—that leadership into the future.

MUTUAL RECOGNITION WITH FOREIGN GRAND LODGES 2020

The Grand Lodge of California enjoys mutual recognition with grand lodges in the United States and around the world. This includes some, but not all, of the foreign grand lodges in the 2020 List of Lodges Masonic as well as a number of foreign grand lodges that are not listed therein.

For clarity, the foreign grand lodges that are recognized by the Grand Lodge of California are listed below alphabetically by country. For those that are published in the 2020 List of Lodges Masonic, the corresponding page number is provided in parentheses. Recognized grand lodges that are not published in the 2020 List of Lodges Masonic are marked with an asterisk (*). The mutual recognition between our grand lodge and those listed all include the right to intervisitation.

In some cases, the Grand Lodge of California has extended an offer of recognition to a number of grand lodges where mutual recognition does not yet exist. Those are found at end of this list.

The Grand Secretary of the Grand Lodge of California is responsible for all correspondence with these grand lodges and the lodges under their jurisdiction. Please contact this office for assistance.

Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of TrusteesThe Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California

Report on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California (the “Grand Lodge”), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of October 31, 2020, and the related consolidated statements of activities and changes in net assets, and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financialstatements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.


2

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California as of October 31, 2020, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters

Report on Summarized Comparative Information

We have previously audited the Grand Lodge’s 2019 consolidated financial statements and we expressed an unmodified opinion on those audited consolidated financial statements in our report dated April 7, 2020. In our opinion, the summarized comparative information presented herein as of and for the year ended October 31, 2019, is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited consolidatedfinancial statements, from which it has been derived.


Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The accompanying consolidating statement of financial position, consolidating statement of activities and changes in net assets, and consolidating schedule of changes in net assets as of and for the year ended October 31, 2020, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements or to the consolidated financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements as a whole.

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements as a whole. The accompanying schedule of fraternal expenses, schedule of program appropriations, and schedule of general and administrative expenses for the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, all presented as supplementary information, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic consolidated financial statements. Such information has not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic consolidated financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

History and organization – The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California (the “Grand Lodge”) is a nonprofit, unincorporated fraternal organization governed by a constitution and ordinances setting forth its jurisdiction and authority. The jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge includes all lodges and Masons within the state of California, and members of lodges of California, wherever residing.

The Grand Lodge provides general and administrative services to its related entities: The Masonic Homes of California (the “Masonic Homes”) and its subsidiary Acacia Creek, a Senior Living Retirement Community in UnionCity (“Acacia Creek Union City”); the California Masonic Memorial Temple (the “Temple”); and the California Masonic Foundation (the “Foundation”) (collectively, the “Masonic Entities”). These services are reimbursed by the related entities.

The California Masonic Code (“Code”) sets forth the effects and process of a lodge dissolution upon the surrender of its charter. The members of the chartered lodges of the Sublime Benicia Lodge No. 5, Plumas Lodge No. 60,Foothill Lodge No. 305, Moreno Valley Lodge No. 804, and Pomona Valley Lodge No. 246, voted to surrender their respective charters to the Grand Lodge. The Grand Lodge accepted the surrender of these lodges’ charters and directed that these lodges be dissolved in accordance with the Code.

Upon the surrender of a lodge charter, Grand Lodge assumes the position of the lodge and becomes the sole member of the lodge’s Hall Association. As a result of the lodges’ dissolution named above, the Grand Lodge became the sole member of the following Hall Associations:

• The Benicia Masonic Temple Association (“Benicia Hall”) on October 11, 2014;

• Plumas Hall Association (“Plumas Hall”) on October 10, 2015;

• Monrovia Masonic Building Association (“Monrovia Hall”) on October 10, 2015; and

• Pomona Valley Masonic Temple Association (“Pomona Valley”) on February 7, 2018.

The financial statements of these “Hall Associations” are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Grand Lodge.

Principles of consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Grand Lodge, Nob Hill, and the Hall Associations (collectively, the “Organization”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Comparative information – The consolidated financial statements include certain prior year summarized comparative information in total but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Organization’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019, from which the summarized information was derived.


The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of theState of CaliforniaNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Net assets classifications – The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the standards set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 958-605 Revenue Recognition, ASC 958-205 Presentation of Financial Statements, and the guidelines set forth in the industry audit and accounting guide Not-for-Profit Entities issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Under these guidelines, contributions of cash and other assets are classified as one of the following three categories:

Without Donor Restrictions – Net assets without donor restrictions represent resources that are not subject to donor-imposed stipulations and are available to support all activities of the Grand Lodge, including the Grand Lodge Endowment Fund (the “Endowment Fund”).

The Endowment Fund was established at the Grand Lodge’s October 1993, Annual Communication. If, in any fiscal year, there was an excess of support and revenues over expenses, as defined by the Grand Lodge Executive Committee, the excess shall be added to the Endowment Fund. For the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, excess of support and revenues over expenses are $0 and $41,073, respectively.

With Donor restrictions – Net assets with donor restrictions represent contributions that are limited in use in accordance with donor-imposed stipulations. These stipulations may expire with time and/or may be satisfied by the actions of the Grand Lodge according to the intention of the donor. Upon satisfaction of such stipulations, the associated net assets are released from net assets with donor restrictions and reported as net assetswithout donor restrictions.

Use of estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments – The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due from/due to related entities, approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Discussion onthe fair value of financial instruments is included in Note 2.

Fair value process – The Organization determines fair value measurement policies and procedures for assets and liabilities under the supervision of the Investment Committee. These policies and procedures are reassessed annually to determine if the current valuation techniques are still appropriate. A variety of qualitative factors are used to subjectively determine the most appropriate valuation methodologies. Methodologies are consistent with market, income, and cost approaches. Unobservable inputs used in fair value measurements are evaluated and adjusted on an annual basis, or as necessary based on current market conditions and other third-party information. In determining the reasonableness of the methodology, Grand Lodge evaluates a variety of factors including a review of existing agreements, economic conditions, industry, and market developments. Certain unobservable inputs are assessed through review of contract terms while others are substantiated utilizing available market data including, but not limited to, market comparable, qualified opinions, and discount rates and mortality tables for split interest agreements.




9

Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents held as investments.

Prepaid expenses – Prepaid expenses consist primarily of prepaid insurance coverage.

Investments – Investments in fixed income and equity securities are stated at estimated fair values based on quoted market prices. Investments received through gifts are recorded at estimated fair values at the date of donation. The fair value of alternative investments is recorded at the investment manager’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”), as the managers have the greatest insight into the investments of their funds and the related industry and have the appropriate expertise to determine the NAV. The Grand Lodge assesses the NAV and takes into consideration events such as suspended redemptions, restructuring, secondary sales, and investor defaults to determine if an adjustment is necessary. Additionally, asset holdings are reviewed within the investment manager’saudited financial statements, as are interim financial statements and fund manager communications, for the purposes of assessing valuation. Unrealized gains or losses that result from market fluctuations are recorded in the period in which such fluctuations occur. Realized gains or losses resulting from sales or maturities of securities are calculated on a cost basis.

Property and equipment – Property and equipment, including leasehold improvements, greater than $1,000 are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 25 years.

The Grand Lodge periodically evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets for impairment. The evaluations address the estimated recoverability of the assets’ carrying value, which is principally determined based on projected undiscounted cash flows generated by the underlying tangible assets. When the carrying value of an asset exceeds its estimated recoverability, a write-down is recorded. No impairment was recorded during the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019.

Other assets – Other assets consist primarily of a collection of jewelry used in lodge ceremonies.

Deferred per capita dues revenue – Deferred per capita dues revenue consists of dues received in the current year for the subsequent fiscal year. These amounts are recognized as revenue in the following fiscal year which is the period to which they relate.

Assets held in trust for lodges life membership and general investment funds – Assets held in trust for lodgesgeneral master trust fund consists of lodges’ participation in the Grand Lodge’s investment pool. The assets held in trust for lodges life membership fund is held in Kaspick and invested in the Kaspick & Company Growth Income Fund. Lodge general investments are held and managed by the Grand Lodge Investment Committee.

Revenue recognition – Contributions are recognized as revenue when received or unconditionally promised. Noncash donations are recognized at fair value at the time of the donation. Garage revenues are recognized when earned as services are provided. Program service revenues are recognized when received and in the period to which they relate. Dues are recognized as revenue ratably over the period to which they relate.

During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB issued ASU No. 2018-08 Not-for-Profit Entities: Clarifying the Scope and the Accounting Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made, to provide clarifying guidance on accounting for the grants and contracts of nonprofit organizations as they relate to the new revenue standard, and aims to minimize diversity in the classification of grants and contracts that exists under current guidance. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Organization’s consolidated financial statements.

Concentration of credit risk – Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Grand Lodge to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of bank demand deposits in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)insurance thresholds, cash held in money market accounts in excess of the amounts insured by the U.S. Treasury insurance for money market funds, and various debt and equity investments in excess of Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) insurance. Demand deposits are placed with a local financial institution, and management has not experienced any loss related to these demand deposits in the past. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risk. It is at least reasonably possible, given the level of risk associated with investment securities, that changes in the near term could materially affect the amount reported in the consolidated statements. The risk associated with the investments is mitigated through diversification.

Income tax status – The Grand Lodge has been granted tax-exempt status for both federal income and California franchise tax purposes; while Nob Hill, a subsidiary of the Grand Lodge, is subject to federal income and California franchise tax.

New accounting pronouncements – During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10).The standard requires entities to measure equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method or do not result in consolidation to be recorded at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in the performance indicator. The new standard was adopted by the Organization on November 1, 2019. The standard requires the use of the cumulative effect transition method, except for equity securities without readily determinable fair values, for which the standard requires the application of the prospective transition method. As a result, unrealized gains of $101,506 for the year end October 31, 2020 are presented within excess of revenues over expenses; had the standard been comparative, unrealized gains of $270,138 would have been presented within excess of revenues over expenses for the year ended October 31, 2019. Management determined no cumulative effect adjustment was necessary.

During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (Topic 230), which provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues including: debt repayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Organization’s consolidated financial statements.




11

In 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014‐09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to allow an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.

In 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which simplifies the presentation of leases by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Managementis currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2022.

In 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including consideration of costs and benefits. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.

Contingencies and commitments – In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The Organization’s operations are located in California, which has restricted gatherings of people due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances and business disruption, the Organization anticipates a significant short-term impact. The Organization will continue to monitor the situation closely, but given the uncertainty about the ongoing situation, an estimate of the impact to the consolidated financial statements cannot be made at this time.

NOTE 2 – INVESTMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or net asset value (NAV) per share (or its equivalent) with the ability to redeem the investments in the near term.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.




13

Following is a description of the valuation methodology used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Investments – Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with identical characteristics, or discounted cash flows. In certain cases, where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include certain real estate investments, and other less liquid securities using investment appropriate models like the income approach for real estate investments.

The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidatedstatements of financial position measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at October 31:

Defined contribution plan – The California Masonic Retirement Plan II (“Retirement Plan”), a defined contribution plan sponsored by the Grand Lodge was effective on April 1, 2007.

NOTE 8 – CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, the Grand Lodge is a party to claims and legal actions. After consulting with legal counsel, the Grand Lodge’s management is of the opinion that any liability that may ultimately be incurred as a result of claims or legal actions will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or consolidated changes in net assets of the Grand Lodge.

NOTE 9 – ENDOWMENT FUND – WITHOUT DONOR RESTRICTIONS

Spending policy, investing policy, and strategy

Return objectives and risk parameters – The Grand Lodge has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets. Endowment assets are comprised of board-designated funds. Under this policy, as approved by the Board of Trustees, the endowment assets are invested in a manner that is intended to produce results that exceed the price and yield results of various market benchmarks appropriate to the investment classes utilized while assuming a moderate level of investment risk. The Grand Lodge expects its endowment funds, over time, to provide an average rate of return of approximately 6.50%to 7.00% annually. Actual returns in any given year may vary from this amount.

Strategies employed for achieving objectives – To satisfy its long-term rate-of-return objectives, the Grand Lodgerelies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Grand Lodge targets a diversified asset allocation that places a greater emphasis on equity-based investments to achieve its long-term return objectives within prudent risk constraints.

Spending policy and how the investment objectives relate to the spending policy – For 2020/2019, the Grand Lodgehas a policy of appropriating for distribution 4.50% of its endowment fund’s average fair value over the prior twenty quarters through the calendar year end preceding the fiscal year in which the distribution is planned. In establishing this policy, the Grand Lodge considered the long-term expected return on its endowment. Accordingly, over the long term, the Grand Lodge expects the current spending policy to allow its endowment to grow at an average of 2.00% annually. This is consistent with the Grand Lodge’s objective to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets held in perpetuity or for a specified term as well as to provide additional real growth through new gifts and investment return.

History and organization – Masonic Homes of California (“Masonic Homes”), a California not-for-profit corporation, operates a home for adults in Union City, California, and a home for adults in Covina, California. Masonic Homes is supported by The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California (the “Grand Lodge”) and members of the Masonic Fraternity in California.

Masonic Homes is the sole member of Acacia Creek, A Masonic Senior Living Community at Union City (“Acacia Creek – UC”). Masonic Homes and Acacia Creek – UC, serve the housing needs of the elderly with independent, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing.

Masonic Homes is subject to statutory reserve requirements. As of October 31, 2020, Masonic Homes’ reserves, as calculated in accordance with Continuing Care Contract Statutes of the California Health and Safety Code, were in excess of such requirements.

Principles of consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Masonic Homes of California and Acacia Creek – UC (collectively, the “Organization”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Comparative information – The consolidated financial statements include certain prior year summarized comparative information in total but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Organization’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended October 31, 2019, from which the summarized information was derived.

Net asset classifications – The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Net assets, revenues, expenses, gains, and losses are classified based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. Accordingly, net assets of the Organization and changes therein are classified and reported as follows:

Without donor restriction – without donor restriction net assets represent resources that are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions and are available to support Masonic Homes’ activities. The Board of Trustees has designated certain net assets without donor restrictions as operating reserves, capital replacement and development reserves, uninsured risk reserves, and strategic initiative reserves. As of October 31, 2020, and 2019, board-designated reserve funds consisted of the following:

Total board designated net assets 32,057$ 31,633$


Masonic Homes of California and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

With Donor Restriction – with Donor restriction net assets represent contributions to be held in perpetuity as directed by the donor and contributions that are limited as to use in accordance with donor-imposed stipulations. These stipulations may expire with time or may be satisfied by the actions of the Organization according to the intention of the donor. Upon satisfaction of such stipulations, the associated net assets are released and reported as without donor restriction. If a restriction is fulfilled in the same fiscal year in which the contribution was received, the contribution is reported as with donor restriction support and net assets are released from restrictions in that period.

Use of estimates – The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Estimates included in these consolidated financial statements relate to fair market value of investments, liability to beneficiaries of split-interest agreements in various charitable remainder trusts, fair market value of real and personal property assigned by residents at the date they are assigned, the useful lives of property and equipment, and allocations of functional expenses. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments – The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and related entities receivables and payables approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Discussion on the fair value of financial instruments is included in Note 4.

Fair valuation process – The Organization determines fair value measurement policies and procedures for assets and liabilities under the supervision of the Investment Committee. These policies and procedures are reassessed annually to determine if the current valuation techniques are still appropriate. A variety of qualitative factors are used to subjectively determine the most appropriate valuation methodologies. Methodologies are consistent with the market, income, and cost approaches. Unobservable inputs used in fair value measurements are evaluated and adjusted on an annual basis, or as necessary based on current market conditions and other third-party information. In determining the reasonableness of the methodology, Masonic Homes evaluates a variety of factors that include a review of existing agreements, economic conditions, industry, and market developments. Certain unobservable inputs are assessed through review of contract terms while others are substantiated utilizing available market data, including, but not limited to, market comparable, qualified opinions, and discount rates and mortality tables for split-interest agreements.

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash – Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents held in the endowment fund as investments, the use of which is restricted.

Funds held for residents include residents’ accounts at Union City, Covina, and Acacia Creek – UC, which comprise of (a) deposits made by residents for a unit in Acacia Creek – UC (b) unexpended portions of monthly allowances made to residents, or (c) other income earned by residents. A corresponding liability related to deposits, and the unexpended portion of monthly allowances is included reported as liability for funds held for residents (Note 2).

Cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash consisted of the following as of October 31:


Operating cash 2,986$ 1,572$ Money market 9,264 10,515 Funds held for residents 1,375 1,263

Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash 13,625$ 13,350$

During 2020, the Organization adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), which requires the statement of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Due to the adoption of ASU 2016-18 the Organization adjusted the consolidated statements of cash flows to include the change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash.

Receivables, net – The Organization receives payment for health services from residents, insurance companies, Medicare, Medi-Cal, HMOs, and other third-party payors. As a result, the Organization is exposed to certain credit risks. The Organization manages its risk by regularly reviewing its accounts receivable and, on a periodic basis, evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts, based on a history of past write-offs and collections. Past-due status is based upon the date of services provided. Uncollectible receivables are charged off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries from previously charged-off accounts are recorded when received.

Prepaid expenses – Prepaid expenses consist primarily of insurance premium prepayments.

Related party receivable – As a part of the California Masonic Foundation fundraising campaign, the Organization has a grant receivable for the amounts designated by the grantors for the benefit of the Organization. The total receivable balance was $1,484,000 and $1,770,000 as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Assets held for sale – Assets held for sale consist primarily of tangible property received from residents, including residential real estate that is held for sale. Assets are recorded at 80% to 90% of estimated fair market value on the date of assignment with the intention of liquidating within 180 days.



11

Investments – Investments in fixed income and equity securities are stated at estimated fair market values based on quoted market prices. Investments received through gifts are recorded at estimated fair market values at the dates of donation. The fair value of alternative investments is recorded at the investment manager’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”), as the managers have the greatest insight into the investments of their funds and the related industry, and have the appropriate expertise to determine the NAV. The Organization assesses the NAV and takes into consideration events such as suspended redemptions, restructuring, secondary sales, and investor defaults to determine if an adjustment is necessary. Additionally, asset holdings are reviewed within the investment manager’s audited consolidated financial statements as well as interim consolidated financial statements and fund manager communications, for the purposes of assessing valuation. Unrealized gains or losses that result from market fluctuations are recorded in the period in which such fluctuations occur. Realized gains or losses resulting from sales or maturities of securities are calculated on a cost basis.

Property and equipment – Property and equipment are carried at cost. Purchases of property and equipment amounting to $1,000 and above are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings and improvements 5 to 50 yearsEquipment 3 to 35 yearsFuniture and fixtures 5 to 20 yearsVehicles 3 to 4 years

The Organization evaluates prominent events or changes in circumstances affecting capital assets to determine whether impairment of a capital asset has occurred. Measurement of the amount of impairment may be based on market values of similar assets or estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from use and ultimate disposition of the assets. No asset impairment was recognized during the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019.

Assets held in trusts – Assets held in trusts represent the assets used to satisfy the liability to beneficiaries of split-interest agreements. When a donor establishes a split-interest agreement where Masonic Homes is the trustee, the lump sum received by the donor is invested separately (Note 6).

Professional liability insurance – Masonic Homes insures for professional liability claims under an “occurrence policy.” The policy covers all occurrences that happen during the policy term up to $5,000,000, subject to a $500,000 self-insured retention. Should this policy not be renewed or replaced with equivalent insurance, claims made outside of the policy period may be uninsured. Management’s intention is to continue insuring for professional liability exposures at all times. Management is not aware of any pending claims that exceed the coverage limitations provided by the policy. Management is of the opinion that the impact, if any, of unknown claims is immaterial and any settlement would not have a material adverse effect on the Organization’s financial position. Management’s estimate of the Organization’s liability for expected losses is based on historical claims experience. At this time there are no accruals for liability included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, nor are any insurance receivables recorded in the consolidated financial statements of the Organization.



12

Workers’ compensation insurance – The Organization insures for workers’ compensation claims under an “occurrence policy” in compliance with the Workers’ Compensation Law of the State of California. The policy covers all occurrences that happen during the policy term up to $1,000,000, subject to a $250,000 deductible per occurrence. Under California Law workers’ compensation coverage must be carried by all employers, therefore, if this policy was not renewed, replacement coverage would need to be secured. There are no accruals for unreported claims accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the consolidated financial statements of the Organization. Under the program, the Organization pays its claims and costs falling under the $250,000 deductible as incurred, and no accruals have been made nor reserves established in the consolidated financial statements of the Organization for any open claims that have not reached the $250,000 deductible threshold. The Organization pays for claims and increases in reserves held by the insurance company on a quarterly basis, regardless of the policy year the claim was filed. Management is of the opinion that the impact, if any, of unreported claims or open claims is immaterial and would not have an adverse impact on the Organization’s financial position.

Liability to beneficiaries of split-interest agreements

Deferred revenue from pooled income fund – Deferred revenue from pooled income fund represents the discount for future investment earnings on Masonic Homes’ remainder interest in the Masonic Homes Pooled Income Fund (the “Pooled Income Fund”) (Note 6). Masonic Homes has determined the amount deferred using the tax deduction methodology from Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Publication 1457 tables, and a discount rate of 3.955% and 2.716% as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Deferred revenue from the Pooled Income Fund included in liability to beneficiaries of split-interest agreements in the consolidated statements of financial position was $261,000 and $218,000 as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Liability to beneficiaries of charitable remainder trusts – Liability to beneficiaries of charitable remainder trusts represents the income beneficiaries’ interest in various charitable remainder trusts of which Masonic Homes is the trustee (Note 6). The liability is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows to be distributed to the income beneficiaries over their expected lives. Masonic Homes has determined the amount of the liability using the tax deduction methodology from IRS Publication 1457, Table S, or IRS Publication 1458, Table D, as applicable, and using a discount rate of 6.00% as of October 31, 2020 and 2019. Liabilities to beneficiaries of charitable remainder trusts included in liabilities to beneficiaries in the consolidated statements of financial position were $1,642,000 and $1,819,000 as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Other liabilities to beneficiaries of split-interest arrangements – Other liabilities to beneficiaries of split-interest agreements include charitable reminder trusts and other gift annuities for which the Organization is obligated. These arrangements included in liabilities to beneficiaries in the consolidated statements of financial position were $454,000 and $466,000 as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Obligation to provide future services to current residents – The Organization is required to accrue a liability in the consolidated financial statements to cover future services to current residents if deferred residency fees and future anticipated income are not sufficient to cover these costs. The interest rate used to estimate this liability was 3% to 4% as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Management has determined that no such accrual is required in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.



13

Revenue recognition

Masonic Homes

Residency fees – The adult residents who enter Masonic Homes are required by a life-care agreement to assign 75% of their assets to Masonic Homes in exchange for continuing care for the remainder of their lives. In the event that a continuing care contract is canceled by the resident through withdrawal within the first 90 days of residency, the resident is entitled to a pro-rata refund of all his or her assigned assets. As of October 31, 2020, and 2019, deferred revenues from assigned assets subject to refund, were $0 and $77,000, respectively. The remaining portion is amortized over the life of the resident and is included in deferred revenue.

The fair-market value of real and personal property assigned to Masonic Homes by residents entering into a continuing care contract is deferred and amortized over the actuarially determined individual or joint and last survivor life expectancy (using the straight-line method), with any unamortized balance recognized as income upon death of the individual or last survivor.

Health service revenue – Masonic Homes – Health service revenues are recognized in the month in which services are provided and collectability is reasonably assured. In addition, health service revenue is presented net of third-party rate adjustments. Other revenue is recognized as the related services are provided and includes guest services income, catering income, and other miscellaneous income.

Masonic Homes provides health care services primarily to residents of its communities. Laws and regulations governing Medicare and Medi-Cal programs are complex and subject to interpretation. Masonic Homes believes that it is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and is not aware of any pending or threatened investigations involving allegations of potential wrongdoing. While no such regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as significant regulatory action, including fines, penalties, and exclusion from the Medicare and Medi-Cal programs.

Fee for service revenue – Masonic Homes – Financially qualified adult residents may enter Masonic Homes by paying a monthly rental fee; such amounts vary with an option to pay an entrance fee. In the event of withdrawal, residents are refunded entrance fees ratably over the first 36 or 60 months.

Acacia Creek – UC

Entrance fees – Acacia Creek – UC – The adult residents who enter and sign a Residence and Care Agreement are allowed a 90-day trial period during which the resident may leave the community at their discretion and receive, upon written notice, a refund of all fees less a reasonable processing fee and fees for the value of services rendered during occupancy. The majority of the adult resident entrance fees are refundable ranging from 50% to 100% upon the resident’s death or termination of the agreement. Acacia Creek – UC is required to refund the entrance fees when the unit is re-sold. As of October 31, 2020, and 2019, entrance fees subject to refund were $44,652,000 and $42,268,000, respectively. The nonrefundable portion is amortized over the life of the resident and is included in deferred revenue.

Fee for service revenue – Acacia Creek – UC – Acacia Creek – UC offers a variety of living accommodations, fine amenities, a comprehensive Wellness Program, and several types of support and health care. Residents pay 1) a monthly fee, which varies according to the size and type of apartment selected and by the level of care needed, and 2) fees for optional services, if applicable.

Contributions – The Organization records contributions and unconditional promises to give in the period they are received in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 958-605, Revenue Recognition. All contributions are available for unrestricted use unless specifically restricted by the donor. Conditional promises to give are recognized when the conditions on which they depend are substantially met. Unconditional promises to give due in the next year are recorded at their net realizable value. Unconditional promises to give due in subsequent years are reported at the present value of their net realizable value, using risk-free interest rates applicable to the years in which the promises are to be received.

Recognition of donor-restricted contributions – Donor-restricted support is reported as an increase in net assets with donor restrictions, depending on the nature of the restriction. When a restriction expires, net assets with donor restrictions are reclassified to net assets without donor restrictions.

Performance indicator – “(Deficit) excess of revenues over expenses” in net assets without donor restrictions as reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of activities and changes in net assets is the performance indicator. Changes in net assets without donor restrictions, which are excluded from excess (deficit) of revenues over expenses, consistent with industry practice, includes unrealized gains and losses on investments.

Concentration of credit risk – Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Organization to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of bank demand deposits in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance thresholds, cash held in money market accounts in excess of the amounts insured by the U.S. Treasury insurance for money market funds, and various debt and equity investments in excess of Securities Investor Protection Corporation insurance. Demand deposits are placed with a local financial institution, and management has not experienced any loss related to these demand deposits in the past. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risk. It is at least reasonably possible, given the level of risk associated with investment securities, that changes in the near term could materially affect the amount reported in the consolidated financial statements. The risk associated with the investments is mitigated through diversification.



15

Tax-exempt status – Masonic Homes and Acacia Creek – UC are not-for-profit corporations as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and Section 23701(d) of California Revenue and Taxation Code and have been granted tax-exempt status by the IRS and the California Franchise Tax Board. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is included in the consolidated financial statements.

New accounting pronouncements – During 2020, the Organization adopted the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10). The standard requires entities to measure equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method or do not result in consolidation to be recorded at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in the performance indicator. The new standard was adopted by the Organization on November 1, 2019. The standard requires the use of the cumulative effect transition method, except for equity securities without readily determinable fair values, for which the standard requires the application of the prospective transition method. As a result, unrealized gains of $9,258,000 for the year end October 31, 2020 are presented within (deficit) excess of revenues over expenses; had the standard been comparative, unrealized gains of $33,542,000 would have been presented within (deficit) excess of revenues over expenses for the year ended October 31, 2019. Management determined no cumulative effect adjustment was necessary.

During 2020, the Organization adopted the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (Topic 230), which provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues including: debt repayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Organization’s consolidated financial statements.

During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB issued ASU No. 2018-08 Not-for-Profit Entities: Clarifying the Scope and the Accounting Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made, to provide clarifying guidance on accounting for the grants and contracts of nonprofit organizations as they relate to the new revenue standard, and aims to minimize diversity in the classification of grants and contracts that exists under current guidance. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Organization’s consolidated financial statements.

In 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to allow an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.



16

In 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which simplifies the presentation of leases by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2022.

In 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including consideration of costs and benefits. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.

In 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, to provide guidance and ease potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial report stemming from the cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.

The fair market value of these investments has declined due to a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, changes in economic conditions, and changes in market outlook for various industries, among others. The securities disclosed above have not met the criteria for recognition of other-than-temporary impairment under management’s policy of evaluating securities for impairment. This review considers the severity and duration of the decline in market value, the volatility of the security’s market price, third-party analyst reports, credit rating changes, and regulatory or legal action changes, among other factors. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded to investment income (loss) and a new cost basis in the investment is established. For the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, no securities were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Corporate stocks/mutual funds/assets held in trusts – Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with identical characteristics or discounted cash flows. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy and include certain real estate investments, and other less liquid securities using investment appropriate models like the income approach for real estate investments. For those assets held in trusts classified as Level 3, the fair value is based on the fair value of underlying investments and Masonic Homes' percentage of interest in the trusts.

The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at October 31:

The following disclosure is made pursuant to Section 1790 (a) (3) of the California Health and Safety Code. The Organization is in the process of a facility development project on its campuses in Union City and Covina, which would expand its service offering. On October 10, 2017, in accordance with the Internal Revenue Service Code Section 501(c)(3), Masonic Homes of California submitted an abbreviated COA application to the California Department of Social Services – Continuing Care Branch (“DSS”) in connection with its planned construction of a skilled nursing facility at its Covina, California community. DSS approved the construction project on November 16, 2017 and construction commenced thereafter. Consistent with its charitable mission to provide residential and other services to seniors, the purpose of this construction project is to develop a stand-alone health center, including 32 beds (28 units) of skilled nursing. This new health center will accommodate seniors who, currently, must be placed in off-campus programs to receive skilled nursing services. Memory care services will also be available in the skilled nursing facility. During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, Masonic Homes of California expended $5,972,000 and $11,224,000, respectively in pre-construction & construction costs in connection with this project, which included permitting fees and fees for architectural, engineering and other professional services as well as building construction hard costs. As of October 31, 2020, these costs have totaled $26,658,000. The Masonic Homes has committed $35 million toward this project.

Upon the death of each donor’s last income beneficiary, the remainder interest becomes available for Masonic Homes’ use.

Contributions are measured at the fair value of the assets received and discounted for the estimated life expectancy of the donor, which is obtained from life expectancy tables published by the IRS. The amount discounted is reported as discount for future interest and recognized using the straight-line method over the donor’s remaining life expectancy. The interest rate used in calculating the discount approximates the average return provided by the fund in the years prior to the applicable contribution. As of October 31, 2020, and 2019, the rate was estimated to be 3.955% and 4.08% respectively.

Assets of charitable remainder trusts – Assets of charitable remainder trusts consist of cash and other assets received under various irrevocable charitable trusts of which Masonic Homes is the trustee. The assets received under these agreements are recorded at estimated fair market value when received. Masonic Homes utilizes an outside fund consultant to value these assets annually.

Assets of charitable gift annuities – Assets of charitable gift annuities consist of cash and other assets received under irrevocable annuity contracts. These contracts guarantee a specified amount for the life of the donor, or beneficiaries designated by the donor. The assets received are not commingled with the general assets of Masonic Homes. A reserve account has been established and invested in accordance with California statutes. The discount rates used range from 0.4% to 6.2%. Upon the death of the donor, the remaining funds revert to Masonic Homes and are taken into income. The (decrease) increase in present value of the gift annuities for the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, was $(151,572) and $88,800, respectively.

Beneficial interests in perpetual trusts – Beneficial interests in perpetual trusts represent the net present value of Masonic Homes’ irrevocable interest in the income generated from various perpetual trusts held by third-party trustees. The assets of the trusts have been donor restricted for investment in perpetuity.

NOTE 12 – CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS

The Organization can potentially be a party to various claims and legal actions in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, based upon current facts and circumstances, the resolution of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the Organization.

The health care industry is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state, and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not necessarily limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditations, and government health care program participation requirements, reimbursement for patient services, and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity continues with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by health care providers. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in expulsion from government health care programs, together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Management believes that the Company is in compliance with fraud and abuse, statutes, as well as other applicable government laws and regulations. While no regulatory inquiries have been made, compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation, as well as regulatory actions known or unasserted at this time.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The Organization’s operations are located in California, which has restricted gatherings of people due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances and business disruption, the Organization anticipates a significant short-term impact. The Organization will continue to monitor the situation closely, but given the uncertainty about the ongoing situation, an estimate of the impact to the consolidated financial statements cannot be made at this time.

NOTE 14 – UNIFORM PRUDENT MANAGEMENT OF INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS ACT (UPMIFA) DISCLOSURES

Board interpretation of law

Interpretation of Relevant Law UPMIFA enacted by California, FMV preservation – The Board of Trustees of the Masonic Homes has interpreted the California Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (“CPMIFA”) as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result of this interpretation, the Masonic Homes classifies as permanently restricted net assets (a) the original value of gifts donated to the permanent endowment, (b) the original value of subsequent gifts to the permanent endowment, and (c) accumulations to the permanent endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in permanently restricted net assets is classified as unrestricted or temporarily restricted net assets until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the Masonic Homes in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by CPMIFA. In accordance with CPMIFA, the Masonic Homes considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds:

a. The duration and preservation of the fund

b. The purposes of the Masonic Homes and the donor-restricted endowment fund

c. General economic conditions

d. The possible effect of inflation and deflation

e. The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments

f. Other resources of the Masonic Homes

g. The investment policies of the Masonic Homes


Return objectives and risk parameters – Masonic Homes has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets. Endowment assets include those assets of donor-restricted funds that the Masonic Homes must hold in perpetuity or for a donor-specified period(s) as well as board-designated funds. Under this policy, as approved by the Board of Trustees, the endowment assets are invested in a manner that is intended to produce results that exceed the price and yield results of various market benchmarks appropriate to the investment classes utilized while assuming a moderate level of investment risk. The Masonic Homes expects its endowment funds, over time, to provide an average rate of return of approximately 6.5% to 7.0% annually. Actual returns in any given year may vary from this amount.



33

Strategies employed for achieving objectives – To satisfy its long-term rate-of-return objectives, Masonic Homes relies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Masonic Homes targets a diversified asset allocation that places a greater emphasis on equity-based investments to achieve its long-term return objectives within prudent risk constraints.

Spending policy and how the investment objectives relate to spending policy – For 2019/2020, Masonic Homes had a past policy of appropriating for distribution 4.50% to 5.00% of its endowment fund’s average fair value over the prior twenty quarters through the calendar year-end proceeding the fiscal year in which the distribution is planned. In establishing this policy, the Masonic Homes considered the long-term expected return on its endowment. Accordingly, over the long term, the Masonic Homes expects the current spending policy to allow its endowment to grow at an average of 2.00% annually. This is consistent with the Masonic Homes’ objective to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets held in perpetuity or for a specified term, as well as to provide additional real growth through new gifts and investment return.

Nature and types of restrictions

Endowment – Masonic Homes’ endowment consists of approximately 16 individual funds established for a variety of purposes. Its endowment includes both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Board of Trustees to function as endowments. As required by generally accepted accounting principles, net assets associated with endowment funds, including funds designated by the Board of Trustees to function as endowments, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions.



35

Aggregate amount of deficiencies for donor-restricted endowments

Funds with deficiencies – From time to time, the fair value of assets associated with individual donor-restricted endowment funds may fall below the level that the donor requires the Masonic Homes to retain as a fund of perpetual duration. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, there was no deficiency of this nature that was reported in net assets without donor restrictions as of October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Masonic Homes of California and Subsidiaries Notes to Financial Statements

38


The following table reflects the Organization’s financial assets as of October 31, available for general expenditure within one year:


Financial assetsCash and cash equivalents 12,250$ 12,087$ Receivables, net 2,871 2,797 Related party receivables 617 534 Assets held for sale 217 856

Financial assets available to meet cash needs for generalexpenditure within one year 15,955$ 16,274$

Financial assets are considered unavailable when illiquid or not convertible to cash within one year. The organization has adequate unrestricted liquid assets to ensure it can meet its current and future obligations. The organization will be making expenditures on several major long-term capital projects in the next year. These future expenditures are not included in current assets as the amounts are interminable and are included in investments as of October 31, 2020.


Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the consolidated statement of financial position date but before the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. The Organization recognizes in the consolidated financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements. The Organization’s consolidated financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position but arose after the consolidated statement of financial position date and before the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

The Organization has evaluated subsequent events through February 24, 2021, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

History and organization – The California Masonic Foundation (the “Foundation”) was established in 1968 by the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California (the “Grand Lodge”). The Foundation operatesas a public charity under 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). The California Masonic Memorial Temple, Inc. (the “Temple”), a public charity operates as a supporting organization of the Foundation, as defined in Section 509(a)(3) of the IRC. As a result, the Foundation effectively controls and has an economic interest in the Temple.

The Foundation believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes”, and, as such, doesnot have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the consolidated financial statements.

The Temple is a California not-for-profit corporation. The Temple is comprised of an auditorium, exhibit hall, a parking garage, and office space located in San Francisco, California. The restated articles of incorporation for the Temple provide that income, less operating expenses and reserves, is to be transferred to the Foundation. The amount and proportions of such distributions are at the sole discretion of the Board of Trustees. For the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, no such transfers were made.

On October 30, 2008, the Temple signed a 10-year lease agreement with Live Nation. Under the agreement, Live Nation is committed to pay the Temple a base rent of $83,333 per month, subject to annual increase, for the leaseof the Temple’s auditorium, Exhibition Hall, and conference rooms. The lease commencement date was January 1, 2009, while the payments started in July 2009.

In June of 2009, Amendment One was executed, extending the Live Nation opt out date to December 31, 2009. In December 2009, Amendment Two was executed, extending the Live Nation opt out date to May 31, 2010, which was extended through a memorandum for an additional 30 days to June 30, 2010. In June of 2010, Amendment Three was executed extending the Live Nation opt-out date to December 31, 2010. In addition, Amendment Three committed the Temple to contribute $285,000 toward capital improvements in the building.

In December of 2010, Amendment Four was executed, extending the Live Nation opt-out date to April 1, 2011. Amendment Four also extended the lease term by five years to December 31, 2026, and the modified rent schedule to the effect that on April 1, 2011, Live Nation would begin paying the Temple rent at an annual rate of $600,000. The rent will increase annually until it caps in 2019 at $850,000 per year. Amendment Four also increased the capital contribution requirement of the Temple from $285,000 to $1,500,000.

In March 2011, Amendment Five was executed, extending the Live Nation opt-out date to April 1, 2014. Amendment Five extended the lease term to March 31, 2028. This amendment modified the rent schedule to the effect that Live Nation would pay Temple the total amount of $285,000 for the period April 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, and $480,000 for calendar years 2012 and 2013. Beyond calendar year 2013, the rent will increase incrementally through March 31, 2020, to a maximum annual rent of $875,500. Thereafter through March 31, 2028, rent will increase by 3% per year. Amendment Five also established a minimum annual parking revenue guarantee of $300,000 per year for 2012 and 2013.

In January 2013, Amendment Six was executed whereby the Temple and Live Nation agreed to enter into the Settlement Agreement with the Nob Hill Coalition, the Nob Hill Association, David Harmer, William Terrell, Amy Harmer, Rich Hanson, David Chow, Adria Price, Lee Saylor, Donna Muse, and Elizabeth Pomada to settle all disputes amongst them to ensure the operation of the Premises as a lawful entertainment and assembly venue and permit the Improvements to the Premises. The settlement agreement includes Contingent Obligations to which Live Nation agreed to: (a) establish and fund a preservation fund managed by the Nob Hill Foundation for the preservation of Huntington Park; (b) establish, fund, and manage a school music program; (c) establish and manage a cultural and community concert promotion program; (d) provide Level 4 box tickets for each Music Concert or Comedy Event; and e) participate in a community liaison group.

In January 2014, Live Nation began the renovation of the Temple Auditorium, Exhibition Hall, California Room and related areas. The renovation was completed in August 2014. In May 2015, Amendment Seven was executed whereby the Temple agreed to increase its capital contribution requirement by $75,000, to a total of $1,575,000. This requirement was met. The Temple paid $75,000 and $1,500,000 capital contributions in 2015 and 2014, respectively.

In April 2018, under Amendment Eight, Live Nation and the Temple agreed to establish a portion of the Exhibit Hall which the Temple intended to remodel as an event, social, and supporting space (Masonic Event Space or MES). If the construction of the MES did not commence prior to December 31, 2020, the MES would become part of the Premises under the lease. The MES construction was completed in early 2020.

The Pandemic of 2020 began in March 2020. On April 15, 2020 Amendment Nine was executed that established a Base Rent Deferral for the period commencing April 1, 2020 and ending June 30, 2020 (Deferral Period). During this period Base Rent would be suspended and instead Live Nation would pay Temple $25,800 per month. Commencing July 1, 2020, Base Rent was to be reinstated and Live Nation would pay $12,900.25 per month for twelve (12) consecutive months in addition to its payment of Base Rent then due. Live Nation would still be responsible for all other payment obligations under the Lease during the Deferral Period.

On September 1, 2020, Amendment Ten was executed by Live Nation and the Temple whereby a second Base Rent Deferral began September 1, 2020 and ending on the day before the Full Reinstatement Date (defined below). During this period, Base Rent was suspended and instead Live Nation would continue to pay the Temple $25,800 per month. The difference between the Base Rent that would have been paid and the $25,800 multiplied by the number of months of the deferral period is the Tenth Amendment Deferred Amount. The Temple agreed that the Tenth Amendment Deferred Amount would be combined with the amount of rent deferred in the Ninth Amendment and not repaid prior to the date of the Tenth Amendment. The combined total owed to the Temple would be paid, commencing on the first day of the month following the date Live Nation is permitted under applicable state, county, and local regulations and orders to operate the Premises at 85% or greater occupancy (such date to be the Full Reinstatement Date). At such time, Base Rent will be reinstated, and Live Nation shall pay the total deferred amount over twenty-four (24) equal payments over twenty-four (24) consecutive months in addition to payments of the Base Rent due. Live Nation remains responsible for all other payment obligations under the lease at all times.

Principles of consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of California Masonic Foundation and California Masonic Memorial Temple, Inc. (collectively, the “Organization”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Comparative information – The consolidated financial statements include certain prior-year summarized comparative information in total, but not by net asset class. Such information does not include sufficient detail to constitute a presentation in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the Organization’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019, from which the summarized information was derived.

Net asset classifications – The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ASC 958-605, “Revenue Recognition,” and ASC 958-205, “Presentation of Financial Statements,”and the guidelines set forth in the industry audit and accounting guide, “Not-for-Profit Organizations,” issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”). Under these guidelines, contributions of cash and other assets are classified as one of the following three categories:

Without Donor Restrictions – Net assets without donor restrictions are not subject to donor-imposed restrictions and are available for support of the Organization’s programs and supporting services.

With Donor Restrictions – Net Assets with donor restrictions represent contributions whose use by the Organization is limited by donor-imposed restrictions. The restrictions can be fulfilled by incurring expenses satisfying the restricted purposes and/or expire with the passage of time. Endowed with donor restriction netassets represent contributions restricted by donors for investment in perpetuity. These Endowed net assetswith donor restriction consist of original corpus.

Use of estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments – The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and related entities receivables/payables approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Discussion on the fair value of financial instruments is included in Note 3.

Fair valuation process – The Organization determines fair value measurement policies and procedures for assets under the supervision of the Investment Committee. These policies and procedures are reassessed annually to determine if the current valuation techniques are still appropriate. A variety of qualitative factors is used to subjectively determine the most appropriate valuation methodologies. Methodologies are consistent with the market, income, and cost approaches. Unobservable inputs used in fair value measurements are evaluated and adjusted on an annual basis, or as necessary based on current market conditions and other third-party information. In determining the reasonableness of the methodology, the Organization evaluates a variety of factors including a review of existing agreements, economic conditions, industry, and market developments. Certain unobservable inputs are assessed through review of contract terms while others are substantiated utilizing available market data including, but not limited to, market comparable, qualified opinions, and discount rates.

Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash – Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents held in the endowment fund as investments or whose use is restricted.



10

During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), which requires the statement of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. Due to the adoption of ASU 2016-18 the Organization adjusted the consolidated statements of cash flows to include the change in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash.

Accounts receivable – The Temple has contractually granted to Live Nation exclusive use of Temple facilities.Management believes these receivables are fully collectible. The Temple board has put in place a policy limitation for senior management that does not allow receivables to be unpursued after a 30-day period. There were no write-offs of receivables during 2020 and 2019.

Pledges receivable, net – Pledges receivable, net, are measured at their fair value and reported as an increase in net assets. The Foundation reports gifts of cash and other assets as donor-restricted support if they are received with donor stipulations that limit the use of the donated assets, or if they are designated as support for future periods.When a donor restriction is satisfied, net assets with donor restrictions are reclassified to net assets without donor restrictions and reported in the statements of activities as net assets released from restrictions. Pledges with payment terms in excess of one year are subject to discounting of 3%. Pledges are written-off in the period deemed uncollectible.

Prepaid expenses and other assets – Prepaid expenses and other assets consist primarily of insurance premium prepayments.

Investments – Investments in fixed income and equity securities are stated at estimated fair values based on quoted market prices. Investments received through gifts are recorded at estimated fair values at the dates of donation. The fair value of alternative investments are recorded at the investment manager’s Net Asset Value (“NAV”), as the managers have the greatest insight into the investments of their funds and the related industries,and have the appropriate expertise to determine the NAV. The Organization assesses the NAV and takes into consideration events, such as suspended redemptions, restructuring, secondary sales, and investor defaults, to determine if an adjustment is necessary. Additionally, asset holdings are reviewed within investment managers’ audited financial statements, as are interim financial statements and fund manager communications, for the purposes of assessing valuation. Unrealized gains or losses that result from market fluctuations are recorded in the period in which such fluctuations occur. Realized gains or losses resulting from sales or maturities of securities are calculated on a cost basis.

Property and equipment – Property and equipment are carried at cost. Purchases of property and equipment amounting to $1,000 and above are capitalized and depreciated using the straight‐line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Buildings and improvements 5 to 49 yearsEquipment 3 to 7 yearsFurniture and fixtures 5 to 20 years

The Organization evaluates prominent events or changes in circumstances affecting capital assets to determine whether impairment of a capital asset has occurred. Impairment losses on capital assets are measured using the method that best reflects the diminished service utility of the capital asset.



11

Advanced deposits – Advanced deposits consist primarily of unearned revenue from various third-party entities.

Grants – Grants expense and payable represent amounts committed by the Foundation and approved by the Board of Trustees to be distributed to nonprofit organizations for their charitable activities. Grant refunds, rejections, and cancellations are recorded as a reduction of grants and awards expense at the time the grant is refunded or cancelled. Grants with payment terms in excess of one year are subject to discounting based on the Foundation’s internal discount rate of 3%.

Contributions – The Organization records contributions in accordance with ASC 958-605, “Revenue Recognition.”Unconditional promises to give cash and other assets to the Organization are reported at estimated fair value at the date the promise is received. Contributions with donor-imposed restrictions that are met in the same year as received are reported as releases from net assets with donor restrictions to net assets without donor restrictions.Conditional promises to give and indications to give are reported at fair value at the date the condition is fulfilled,and the gift is received, respectively. When a donor restriction expires, that is, when a stipulated time restrictionends and/or purpose restriction is accomplished, net assets with donor restrictions are released as net assetswithout donor restrictions.

During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB ASU No. 2018-08 Not-for-Profit Entities: Clarifying the Scope and the Accounting Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made, to provide clarifying guidance on accounting for the grants and contracts of nonprofit organizations as they relate to the new revenue standard, and aims to minimize diversity in the classification of grants and contracts that exists under current guidance. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Organization’s consolidated financial statements.

Collection of books and nonvaluable contributions – The Foundation library contains a book collection of approximately 10,000 volumes. The collection includes approximately 8,500 works on Masonic and related philosophic topics and nearly 1,500 non-Masonic volumes, including historical, religious, scientific, political, and biographical works. Fewer than 50 works in the collection could be considered rare. The Foundation museum collection contains donated items from the membership of The Masonic Fraternity in California and elsewhere. Artifacts in the collection include works of art, Masonic regalia, and numerous historical pieces. The Foundation does not recognize books and nonvaluable contributions in its consolidated financial statements. The Foundation does not recognize these assets as contributions, as they are protected and preserved, held for public exhibition, and subject to an organizational policy that requires proceeds from the sale of collection items to be used to acquire other items for collections. Accessions and deaccessions of books and nonvaluable contributions during 2020 and 2019 were not significant.

Concentration of credit risk – Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Foundation to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of bank demand deposits in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance thresholds, cash held in money market accounts in excess of the amounts insured by the U.S. Treasury insurance for money market funds, and various debt and equity investments in excess of Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) insurance. Demand deposits are placed with a local financial institution, and management has not experienced any loss related to these demand deposits in the past. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. It is at least reasonably possible, given the level of risk associated with investment securities, that changes in the near term could materially affect the amount reported in the consolidated financial statements. The risk associated with the investments is mitigated through diversification.

New accounting pronouncements – During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 825-10).The standard requires entities to measure equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method or do not result in consolidation to be recorded at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in the performance indicator. The new standard was adopted by the Organization on November 1, 2019. The standard requires the use of the cumulative effect transition method, except for equity securities without readily determinable fair values, for which the standard requires the application of the prospective transition method. As a result, unrealized gains of $737,035 for the year end October 31, 2020 are presented within excess of revenues over expenses; had the standard been comparative, unrealized gains of $1,201,207 would have been presented within excess of revenues over expenses for the year ended October 31, 2019. Management determined no cumulative effect adjustment was necessary.

During 2020, the Organization adopted FASB ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (Topic 230), which provides guidance on eight specific cash flow issues including: debt repayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, distributions received from equity method investees, beneficial interests in securitization transactions, and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Organization’s consolidated financial statements.

In 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014‐09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to allow an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.

In 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which simplifies the presentation of leases by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2022.

In 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, including consideration of costs and benefits. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of adoption on the consolidated financial statements which will be effective for the Organization for fiscal year 2021.

Contingencies and commitments – In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The Organization’s operations are located in California, which has restricted gatherings of people due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances and business disruption, the Organization anticipates a significant short-term impact. The Organization will continue to monitor the situation closely, but given the uncertainty about the ongoing situation, an estimate of the impact to the consolidated financial statements cannot be made at this time.

Total investments 41,944,930$ 40,101,868$

Equity mutual funds – These funds are comprised of both U.S. and Global Mutual Funds. The Organization’s investment policy states the Organization believes the capital markets are “mean‐reverting” by nature. Therefore, it adheres to long‐term asset allocation strategies and periodic, regular rebalancing. The Organization believes market timing is ineffective as a long‐term investment strategy and will remain fully invested in all long‐termmandates.

Fixed income mutual funds – This is a PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund. The fund seeks long‐term real returns. The fund invests in actively managed PIMCO mutual funds, including developed and emerging bonds and stocks, real estate, commodities, and absolute‐return oriented strategies.

Corporate stocks – These are small cap value stocks. The fund seeks stocks that must yield at least 1% value, with low relative valuation, and with a fundamental catalyst (improve earnings, cost structure). A sell decision focuses on the changes or a decline in the three factors.

Alternative investments – These funds are comprised of Credit Long/Short, Real Estate, Hedge Funds, andOpportunistic Futures. The Organization’s investment policy states that the Organization believes the capitalmarkets are “mean-reverting” by nature. Therefore, it adheres to long-term asset allocation strategies and periodic, regular rebalancing. The Organization believes market timing is ineffective as a long-term investment strategy and will remain fully invested in all long-term mandates.

Alternative investments are less liquid than the Organization’s other investments. The following table summarizes these investments by investment strategy type at October 31:

The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of investments with unrealized losses that are not deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired, aggregated by investment category, and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at October 31:

The fair market value of these investments has declined due to a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, changes in economic conditions, and changes in market outlook for various industries, among others. The securities disclosed above have not met the criteria for recognition of other-than-temporary impairment undermanagement’s policy of evaluating securities for impairment. This review considers the severity and duration of the decline in market value, the volatility of the security’s market price, third-party analyst reports, credit rating changes, and regulatory or legal action changes, among other factors. Once a decline in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded to investment income (loss) and a new cost basis in the investment is established. For the years ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, no securities were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities



16

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Corporate stocks/mutual funds – Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with identical characteristics, or discounted cash flows. In certain cases, where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

The following tables present the fair value measurements of assets recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at October 31:

NOTE 8 – ENDOWMENT DISCLOSURES

Board interpretation of law – Interpretation of Relevant Law UPMIFA enacted by California, FMV preservation –The Board of Trustees of the California Masonic Foundation has interpreted the California Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (“CPMIFA”) as requiring the preservation of the fair value of the original gift as of the gift date of the donor-restricted endowment funds, absent explicit donor stipulations to the contrary. As a result of this interpretation, the Foundation classifies as endowed net assets with donor restrictions: (a) the original value of gifts donated to the endowment in perpetuity, (b) the original value of subsequent gifts to the endowment, and (c) accumulations to the endowment made in accordance with the direction of the applicable donor gift instrument at the time the accumulation is added to the fund. The remaining portion of the donor-restricted endowment fund that is not classified in endowed net assets with donor restrictions is classified as net assets with or without donor restrictions until those amounts are appropriated for expenditure by the Foundation in a manner consistent with the standard of prudence prescribed by CPMIFA. In accordance with CPMIFA, the Foundation considers the following factors in making a determination to appropriate or accumulate donor-restricted endowment funds:

a. The duration and preservation of the fund

b. The purposes of the Foundation and the donor-restricted endowment fund

c. General economic conditions

d. The possible effect of inflation and deflation

e. The expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments

f. Other resources of the Foundation

g. The investment policies of the Foundation


Return objectives and risk parameters – The Foundation has adopted investment and spending policies for endowment assets that attempt to provide a predictable stream of funding to programs supported by its endowment while seeking to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets. Endowment assets include those assets of donor-restricted funds that the Foundation must hold in perpetuity or for a donor-specified period(s) as well as board-designated funds. Under this policy, as approved by the Board of Trustees, the endowment assets are invested in a manner that is intended to produce results that exceed the price and yield results of various market benchmarks appropriate to the investment classes utilized while assuming a moderate level of investment risk. The Foundation expects its endowment funds, over time, to provide an average rate of return of approximately 6.5% to7.0% annually. Actual returns in any given year may vary from this amount.

Strategies employed for achieving objectives – To satisfy its long-term rate-of-return objectives, the Foundationrelies on a total return strategy in which investment returns are achieved through both capital appreciation (realized and unrealized) and current yield (interest and dividends). The Foundation targets a diversified asset allocation that places a greater emphasis on equity-based investments to achieve its long-term return objectives within prudent risk constraints.



23

Spending policy and how the investment objectives relate to spending policy – The Foundation had a past policy of appropriating for distribution 4.50% to 5.00% of its endowment fund’s average fair value over the prior 20 quarters through the calendar year-end proceeding the fiscal year in which the distribution is planned. In establishing this policy, the Foundation considered the long-term expected return on its endowment. Accordingly, over the long term, the Foundation expects the current spending policy to allow its endowment to grow at an average of 2.00% annually. This is consistent with the Foundation’s objective to maintain the purchasing power of the endowment assets held in perpetuity or for a specified term, as well as to provide additional real growth through new gifts and investment return.

Funds with deficiencies – From time to time, the fair value of assets associated with individual donor-restricted endowment funds may fall below the level that the donor requires the Foundation to retain as a fund of perpetual duration. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, there were no deficiencies of this nature asof October 31, 2020 and 2019.

Subsequent events are events or transactions that occur after the consolidated statement of financial position date but before consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. The Organization recognizes in the consolidated financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements. The Organization’s consolidated financial statements do not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the consolidated statement of financial position but arose after the consolidated statement of financial position date and before consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

The Organization has evaluated subsequent events through May 13, 2021, which is the date the consolidatedfinancial statements are available to be issued.
