Masonic Groundbreaking Shovels For Sod-Cutting Ceremonies In Virginia
Virginia's nickname is "Mother of Presidents". The first colony settled in the New World was Jamestown, and although the original intent was to establish silk cultivation, what Virginia cultivated were future presidents. It's no secret that the aristocratic, educated, and well traveled members of Virginia society were Masons, and held strong traditions in the architecture of the day, including now historic and protected cornerstones, and groundbreaking ceremonies. Today, Masonic influence is still strong, and Masonic Lodges abound in historical Virginia, from Jamestown, Richmond, Manassas, to Arlington and Alexandria, and therefore groundbreaking ceremonies are treated as solemnly as if they were for King Solomon's Temple. These are the important items you'll want to have at your groundbreaking ceremony, and how to display them in a way that would have made George Washington want to attend.
