On Thursday, October 18, 2012, Menifee Valley Lodge #289 of the 826th Masonic District, held its 17th Annual Brother Vick Knight, Ed.D., Commemorative Constitution Contest. The High Schools competing this year were: Elsinore HS, Wildomar; Lakeview HS, Lake Elsinore; Nuview Bridge Early College HS, Nuevo; Paloma Valley HS, Menifee; and Perris HS, Perris.
After each team had the opportunity to answer 16 questions, Elsinore HS and Lakeview HS ended at the top in a tie. In the run-off, Elsinore HS won for the 8th consecutive year. What a record! Our hats are off to the students and their faculty advisor, Mr. Wil Hernandez.
The Elsinore HS team received certificates good for 4 large pizzas from Papa John’s and a gold medallion identifying them as first place winners. All 25 students also received a gift card from Wendy’s Hamburgers good for $5 in food purchases, and a certificate of accomplishment, and the members of the runner-up teams also received gold medallions identifying them as contestants.
Team from all five competing high schools voiced the same sentiment, “We can’t wait for next year!”
