| The Masonic Celebration is observed on June 24th each year which is the anniversary of Saint John the Baptist. According to Masonic traditions this day is designated as days for festivals, installations and celebrations. On June 24th the Masonic lodges of this area have publicly installed their newly elected officers and have planned entertainment for everyone from the youngest to the oldest person present, whether they belong to the order or not. On Saint John's Day, June 24th, 1717, the first Grand Lodge in England was established, and although it has been nearly 300 years since that momentous event the picturesque City of Florala has entertained thousands of visitors. This Celebration is believed to be the oldest continuous Masonic Day Celebration in the world. In recent years the week long activities include a Bass Tournament, a 50's Sock Hop, "Anything Goes" Parade, Miss 24th of June Beauty Contest, Horseshoe Tournaments, Basket Ball Tournaments, Children's Events, Annual Treasure Hunt, Gospel Sings, Children's Chalk Drawing Contest, Friday Night Street Dance, Fireworks, Arts & Crafts, Car Shows, Adult Water Battle, Children's $100 money Scramble, the 24th of June Celebration Day Parade and the 5K Alligator Trot around beautiful Lake Jackson which has you running in two states!
