Code-2 Has Been Cracked

One of our newest brothers, Matt Nohr, has cracked the second code.  Great job!

I've just realized that second code is related to the second degree.  It's perhaps my favorite part of the degree, but it's not a lecture.  I'm not sure if that's because something was working in the subconscious or just coincidence.

Code 5 Has Been Solved

Brother Warren Johnson has cracked Code 5.  That's two down.  If you're still stuck on solving the codes, keep checking the blog for updates and clues.

Brother Warren mentioned that he learned something about Masonry in the process.  I wonder, as he is the Junior Warden, if he has learned his lines for the second degree yet?  ...hung near a water-ford...

Code Clues

The following are three clues for three of the five codes.  They are not necessarily in any particular order.

Winter

Tuscan

Sanctum Sanctorum

Coin Design Completed

Here is an initial look at the commemorative coins.  I'm sure that they'll look so much better in hand.  As a reminder, the copper coins will be serialized and awarded to those who are the first to solve the codes that are apart of the scavenger hunt.  The gold coins are serialized 1 through 10 and will be awarded to those who are the first to complete the scavenger hunt.  The silver coins will be given out to all masons who buy a ticket for the 125th anniversary.  They may also be purchased.

CODE-1 has been cracked

CODE-1 has been cracked by at least two brothers.  Their entries were only a few hours apart.  Make sure you get those time sensitive items emailed as soon as you can.

Congratulations Rich Wogensen on being the first to solve CODE-1.  Periodic clues will still be coming to help others solve this and the other codes.
