Quentin J. Cockerham Deputy State Master Councilor Missouri DeMolay You were cordially invited and I now welcome you to this 2014 Missouri DeMolay State Conclave! The gears which have made Conclave run in the past have been taken out and replaced with brand new cogs, making this a different experience for all. My only hope is that the Sweethearts, DeMolays, Squires, and Advisors have a weekend filled of joy and new memories. I may have been expected to be in the position I am now, but it is simply because I worked for it and I wanted it – I am here as your Chairman and there is no doubt in my mind that this weekend will be my greatest Success thus far in life. The first task of planning Conclave was to create a “theme,” but themes are just a part of life, and I believe that you can find Success through DeMolay. Success and you will have glory. Success and you shall have honor. I believe that the three are in the same and I believe that glory is derived from success and that is what makes you an honorable person. I remember sitting at my chapter table 5 years ago and could not even fathom the possibility of one day running Conclave. I truly never thought that I’d have the honor to serve in this position. I will follow the light to virtue, through DeMolay and Freemasonry. I hope you all endure this Conclave with this thought: “You do not have the right to succeed, you have the opportunity.” Sincerely and Fraternally, Quentin J. Cockerham Conclave 2014 Chairman Deputy State Master Councilor Brandon Rarey State Master Councilor Missouri DeMolay It is my pleasure to welcome each and every one of you to the 2014 Missouri DeMolay State Conclave! Since November, the Conclave Planning Committee has worked so hard to bring this production to life. The many Advisors, Senior and Active DeMolays have put in countless hours of their time to make sure that this will be one of the best Conclaves DeMolay has to offer. There have been some big changes that I believe will make the experience that each attendee has ever more enjoyable. Whether you have been to Conclave before or this is your first time here, you will be able to make memories that will be with you for a lifetime. This will be my last Conclave as an Active DeMolay and I know that I have been given a special opportunity in this organization. It may seem like a long time when you first join this order, but when you reach the age of majority, it will feel like you have only been in DeMolay for a blink of an eye. The short journey I have taken as a kid from Waynesville Chapter has been the best and I would not trade it in for anything. I hope to leave Memorial Day Weekend with more friends, experiences and most of all, trophies, because being here together is about brotherhood and competition and I believe we will show DeMolay International that we have the best! Success is a great standard to hold in your life’s work. Bringing success in your life should be a goal for everyone. Its up to you to define what your personal success should be; should it be with your school, with your job, or with your friends and family its what you make it. It is important to make sure you do the best you can in whatever endeavor you chose because the choices made during your time as an adolescent will mold and form you into the adult that you want to be and this organization will help you through that. I hope that every DeMolay will find their Success in their competitions and will enjoy every ounce of time they will spend here with their brothers and friends. Good Luck and God Bless! Sincerely and fraternally, Brandon Rarey State Master Councilor Success O LORD, Save us; O LORD, grant us success. Psalm 118.25 We meet each year at our State Conclave to visit with our brothers, families and friends; to have fun; and to strive for success in our competitions and activities. We trust and pray that each of you will be successful in all of your endeavors this weekend, and more importantly, in your lives ~ each and every day. Here are 10 Keys to Success to keep in mind in everything you do. Abide in God and success will come your way. Be strong and courageous and do the right thing – always and in all ways. Work hard, play hard, be humble and be faithful. Be positive, enthusiastic and happy. Strive for excellence with determination and commitment. Vision is key – turn your Imaginations into reality. Ponder success daily. Learn from your failures and then be successful. Just do and dare – take bigger steps in your life and do at least one more good deed for others each day. Trust in God with all your heart, obey Him and He will show you the way. We are glad that you are here and we are most pleased and honored to have Dad Mike Salazar ~ our Grand Master of DeMolay International, and Dad Jon Broyles ~ our Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Missouri with us to share in all of the successes of this State Conclave. May you always be successful to the Honor and Glory of God. Sincerely and fraternally, Dad Robert W. Cockerham Past Grand Master Executive Officer Missouri DeMolay Dulci Hedges State Sweetheart Hello and welcome to Conclave 2014! I am very excited for this weekend and I hope you all are as well! I have had a wonderful year as State Sweetheart getting to know you boys and I am eager to see what this weekend awaits. To the boys, good luck to all of you competing in ritual competitions or sports, I'm sure you will do fantastic. To all the Sweethearts who are running, relax! There's no reason to be nervous. Just have fun! I hope you have a wonderful time. I'm excited to see you all! Dulci Hedges State Sweetheart 2013-2014 Katherine Mason Associate State Sweetheart Welcome everyone to Conclave 2014! I am so excited for this weekend, and hope that all of you are as well. This weekend is meant to strengthen the brotherhood of DeMolay and the fellowship of the Masonic Family. DeMolay teaches us to have a purpose so that we may become successful. I would like to wish the Squires and DeMolays good luck in their sporting and ritual competitions. I know you all have worked hard to prepare for Conclave. Good luck to all of the Sweetheart contestants. Remember to be yourself and have fun. To all the Dad’s and Mom’s you do such a great job and we all really appreciate you taking the time to support masonic youth. Don’t stress, instead have fun, meet new people, and try to get enough food and sleep.
