"WHAT IS A RITE-ON-THE-ROAD (ROTR)?
This is a new tool available to the Valley of Philadelphia where we can hold remote “mini-Reunions” to show Video Degrees or perform Live Degrees to our members and new valid petitioners. They may be held after a Blue Lodge meeting, a Lodge or other venues. All of these events include the 4th degree which is the degree at which a Brother Master Mason can become a member or the Valley of Philadelphia!
How can someone become a member of the Valley of Philadelphia?
First, they must be a Master Mason and a "member in good standing" of a Blue Lodge. Their application must be submitted either electronically at scottishritenmj.org or in paper form and accompanied with an initiation fee of $150.00 PRIOR to witnessing the 4th Degree. A completed/signed paper application and associated fee may be presented at the Rite-On-The-Road event.
