We don't get a cap at West Ky. Consistory for the 32 unless you buy one. You get one if you receive the K.C.C.H. or 33rd.
No, Kentucky is SJ. In Nov. of 15 when I was elected to the AASR I had to buy my own 32 Degree "Black Hat".Is KY NMJ? Otherwise im fairly certain the that SJ SC mandates that you receive a cap and that the cap is worn during meetings
Those things have changed back and forth. A couple of years ago, we were instructed by our SGIG to make the cap and ring optional to keep petition fees down. And I'm SJ. I don't find any such requirement in the statutes; if you have a statute number I'd like to read it. The only thing I could find is the the candidate must be given "A Bridge to Light" after the 14° and a patent after the 32°I dont think thats right. I just helped my valley restructure its dues and degree fees, and there were things that the SC says MUST be given to new candidates and among them are a bridge to light, a 14th deg ring and a black hat..among other things

We were given the copy of Bridge to Light but they stopped giving the 14th degree ring when the price of gold went sky high. However, at the conclusion of this spring's reunion they are going to have a capping ceremony for the new members and will be giving them their caps for the first time in awhile.and there were things that the SC says MUST be given to new candidates and among them are a bridge to light, a 14th deg ring and a black hat..among other things
I dont have a statute number i was just given a list by our deputy and he told me that the SC mandates that it all must be given to new candidates. Kinda pissed me off cause when i took the degrees i got my cap, bridge to light and a 14th ring encased in a plastic pyramid, different valley.Those things have changed back and forth.
