Once a year, we are given the chance to recognize the people who work hard for our great youth organization, both our youth and adult leaders. This year at the annual DeMolay International Sessions held in Alexandria, Virginia, several deserving members and Advisors were designated to be named a Chevalier, a Cross of Honor, or a Legion of Honor recipient.
The Chevalier is the highest honor that an Active DeMolay can receive. Although a Senior DeMolay can also receive the Chevalier, all of the recipients for Pennsylvania are in fact Active members, or were at the time of submission. The 2018 Chevalier recipients are:
Alejandro Rodriguez - Allentown
Dimas Rodriguez - Allentown
Aidan Patterson - Carlisle
Andrew Santilli - Chester Pike
Sean Summerfield - Chester Pike
Kody Anderson - Elizabethtown
Brandon Whited - Northeast
A.J. Lee - Susquehanna
Mitchell Holmes - Templar
Dylan Kirk - Westmoreland
David Smith - Westmoreland
