The Female auxiliary to the Masons is the Eastern Star. You don't hear much about it anymore, but in my Grandmother's day, it was a big social thing. There was also a girls' organization for daughters of Masons called Rainbow Girls, kind of like the Girl Scouts. I remember asking my Mom in the early 60's if I could join the Rainbow Girls, and she said, You don't want to get into that, they're snobby. So I joined the Girl Scouts instead.

We were NOT snobby! At least, not in Houston. We were looked down on by those hoochies on the drill team. :)

ORG is a wonderful organization. My order (Sugar Land 360) went dark a few years back . . . it made me sad. ORG taught me the importance of tradition and bedrock values.
