Greetings one and all and thank you for your taking time to read.  On behalf of the members and officers of the Knights of Saint Andrew - Winston Salem Chapter, welcome to this page.  The KSA is a service organization that is open to all 32º Scottish Rite Masons.  We are instituted for the purpose of encouraging work within the Scottish Rite, to plan and prepare events, to contribute to the very noble and various jobs related to putting together our twice-annual reunions, and to encourage charitable giving.  In short, the KSA should not be considered a group with interests beyond the Scottish Rite, but one that seeks only to unite those who want to learn and to show leadership and initiative as Scottish Rite Masons.  We all joined the Scottish Rite for different reasons, and we all have something of ourselves that we can give back.  I encourage you all to join and participate, as we are looking forward to 2010 to be a year of great accomplishment for us.  While we open our active memberships only to black caps, let me assure you that we welcome our emeritus and honorary members, and encourage them as well to participate.  I encourage you, if you are a member of the Winston-Salem Scottish Rite, to contact me for further information via email at davgrimes@gmail.com

But let me continue, as this is a rare opportunity as a Scottish Rite Mason to address a broader audience.

I want to encourage anyone who has made their way to this page to take a look at the Scottish Rite, Freemasonry, and their potential impact in your community.  Research our charitable work with the RiteCare program and our many other worthy social programs.  The Scottish Rite and Knights of Saint Andrew exist, as all men should strive to exist, to serve and support each other and the world at large.
