Burlingame Scottish Rite

The last Burlingame Scottish Rite stated meeting of 2025 has concluded, the 2026 officers have been elected, and the holiday celebration has commenced! 🎄

Congratulations on the completion of your year as Venerable Master - Hon. Allan Young, 32° KCCH! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The Breakfast with Santa holiday event returned to the Burlingame Masonic Center this weekend and brought a collaboration between the members, wives and family of Burlingame Scottish Rite, Burlingame Lodge No. 400 & Peninsula York Rite to bring joy to the children of our masonic family and community. Thank you to the many hands that helped coordinate and serve at this events.

The extra generosity by guests brought in donations to the Scottish Rite RiteCare Childhood Language Center, Grand Lodge of California Masons4Mitts Program, and the Knights Templar Eye Foundation!

At our August meeting, Knight Martin Chavez, 32° KSA, the retiring Chieftain of the Burlingame Knights of St. Andrew, knighted 4 knights into the Chapter. The new Knights received their glengarry caps, badges and certificates. The Knights of St. Andrew (or KSA for short) is a service-oriented organization of 32° Scottish Rite Masons dedicated to supporting their Scottish Rite Valleys by assisting with ceremonies, administrative duties, and charitable endeavors. The Chapter at Burlingame was founded in 2002 and adopted the Steward Modern Hunting plaid.

The night was fitting as we send off and say goodbye and see you soon to Knight Todd Birnbaum, 32° KSA with his acceptance and September move to the Masonic Homes in Union City. Todd is an active member of our Burlingame Knights of St. Andrew and past Master of Kadosh of the Burlingame Consistory.
