Grand Assembly 2004

Follow the yellow brick road!  Follow the yellow brick road!  Follow, follow, follow the yellow brick road!  There's no place like home, not for California Rainbow.  And home is Fresno, California, where our "There's no place like Rainbow" sessions were held.

Grand Officers 2003-2004  "Legendary Llamas"
Tracy was pleased to call ourselves home to our district's only Grandie this year - Ashley Yanes, Grand Service.  She did a marvelous job serving California Rainbow this year.  We were so proud of her when she delivered her year-end report on the Grand Assembly floor that combined the wizadry of Oz with a modern day wizard, Harry Potter.  She proved herself to be legendary!

Grand Officers 2004-2005 "Tenacious Turtles"
For the first time in years, Tracy Assembly came home Grandie-less.  We weren't really surprised since no one from our assembly was eligible.  Besides, how exciting is it to be a part of a district with two Grand Bow Officers and home to one of the first assemblies in the state to have two Grandies in the same year?  Pretty exciting, we'll tell you.  We're happy to call True Blue Grand Fidelity, Heather Caudle one of ours; plus the Natural Woman, Shauntae Shorter, Grand Nature; and Grand Mouth, aka Grand Lecturer, Jolene Morris, ours as well.  We know they'll tenaciously represent us well this year!

Grand Choir
The Emerald City never looked so grand as it did when the Grand Choir entered the Grand Assembly room in their beautiful green dresses.  Our Grand Choir member, Shannan, looked and sounded like a gem. 

Majority
  Always a sad time is Majority, especially when one of your own is taking it.  This year we saw our own Ashley Yanes receive her Majority at the end of her Grand Year.  She's served our assembly and other neighboring assemblies for a long time so it was sad for everyone to see her end her active Rainbow career.  But, we know that life has many wonderful things in store for her. 

Grand Assembly 2004 was an amazing session.  No one left doubting that there just really isn't any place on earth like Rainbow.  We left Fresno feeling rejuvenated and excited about what the future might hold for our assembly.
