On Saturday October 06th at the Marriott hotel in Irvine. We received 8 new members into the Cardinal McIntyre Assembly, they are

SK Raul Baldemoro
SK Anthony Ballone
SK Henry Kruse
SK Hercules Montiel
SK Solomon Odiamar
SK Philip Sands
SK John Seward
SK Joseph Stockard

Unfortunately because of the short notice and small number of candidates, we were not able to provide a hospitality suite. That however did not turn out to be a problem as our Brother Knights from the Cabrillo assemby welcomed us with open arms.

Our Faithful Comptroller welcomed our candidates at the registration table where they were given their social baldric and 4th degree pin. The candidates then assembled in one of the salons where the Marshalls then proceeded to give the candidates their orientation. The candidates were lined up and assembled in preparation for the exemplification ceremony.

The “Our Lady or Guadalupe” class had 262 candidates take the exemplification of the 4th degree. In this class were several members of the military and 8 members of the clergy.

Following the exemplification the salons were readied for mass, and later that evening a small cocktail social was provided where we enjoyed a few drinks and socializing before the start of the banquet dinner.

Our honoree for the evening was SK Ray Warriner the 99th Ca. State Deputy. This was also our Worth Master John Bertrand's first exemplification class.

After dinner and all the speeches it was time for the award presentations. The winner was the Santa Clarita assembly #2421 for winning  the morning Color Corp drill team competition.
