The Key Member Program was started in 2005 as a reward program for Scottish Rite Masons of the Kansas City Valley who actively participate in the day-to-day activities of the Valley. The program is not designed as a competition between Brethren. It is simply a way for a Brother to be thanked for his service while giving the individual a way to compete with himself on behalf of the Valley. 'Links' are awarded according to three areas, with Gold and Silver keys being awarded to Brethren who achieve the appropriate number of links as explained below:

Area A:

  • Be a first line signer on a new petition and accompany the candidate through his reunion: 75 links. No points for petition only!
  • Attendance as a rental volunteer: 20 links each event
  • Attendance as a Temple Work Day volunteer: 20 links per event

Area B:

  • Serve as a Reunion Mentor without signing the petition: 50 links per reunion.
  • Work on a Reunion Supporting Committee (registration, stage, sound, wardrobe, makeup, class, etc.): 50 links per reunion
  • Serve as a speaking cast member: 30 links per part
  • Serve as a non-speaking cast member: 20 links per part
  • Attend as an observer to a reunion: 10 links per day

Area C:

  • Serve as or with Kitchen Cooks: 30 links per meal
  • Serve as or with Kitchen Knights: 30 links per meal
  • Attend a regular monthly dinner/business meeting: 10 links


Keys are awarded as follows:

Brethren receiving 600 links in any combination of areas



Brethren receiving 600 links with at least 200 from each area
