History

Cleveland Assembly #15 S.O.O.B. was constituted on April 29, 1921.  The first meeting was held at the Odd Fellows Hall located at 2064 East 55^th Street.  By October 1921 the Assembly membership had grown; and the Assembly moved to Python Castle located at 1626 East 55^th Street, a more suitable facility.

In 1922 it was voted to rent the Lodge room on the third floor at the Al Koran Club located at 1624 East 35^th Street.  The “New Masonic Temple” opened, and in November 1923 the Assembly moved to 3615 Euclid Avenue (The Valley of Cleveland Scottish Rite Building). This remained its home until moving to Lakewood Masonic Temple in 1999.

On April 15, 1950, Lorain Assembly #147 was constituted.  On February 5, 1982, it consolidated with Cleveland Assembly.

During these yearly years our members did a lot of welfare work such as inviting children from the Christian orphanage to Christmas parties and presenting them with gifts.  We continue today with charitable work.  The Knights Templar Eye Foundation has been supported by the Social Order of the Beauceant since 1957, and since this time the S.O.O.B. has made donations of over one and half million dollars.
