Hello Brethren,

I have recently been to two Board of Examiners Grand Lecturer Schools.  The first was in Lansing, Illinois about a month ago and most recently Saturday in Springfield.  This was my first time attending these classes and I found it to be exceptionally educational.  The uniforms and knowledge of Our Board of Examiners was truly impressive.  As OUR Grand Master Richard Swaney says all the time we have best Degree work in the World.  Has anyone else had the chance to attend any of these classes?  What are your thoughts?  Any Suggestions?
