A Past Sovereign Master of the Valley of Harrisburg, Bro. Herritt was very active on the Ritual Staff, and played many major roles in our Degrees. Our cast and crew are anxious to do their very best work for the class named for one of their own.

Now is the time to get those petitions in to the Valley office to join this Spring Class.

FUNKTION Hailing from South Central PA, Funktion is a fresh band, with a long musical history.

Once upon a time, there were two young hipsters who wanted to make people dance, so they gathered some musically inclined friends & started a band…FUNKTION!

Playing a hot mix of Old School & New School Funk, R&B, & Classic Rock…Funktion owns the stage, performing hits from The Commodores to Journey, Stevie Wonder to Lynyrd Skynyrd, B.B.King to CeeLo Green! They’ll even seamlessly slip in a few originals, to see if you take notice, or just keep on dancing.

We have 1,200 seats in our auditorium …come see this great act. NO TICKETS ARE REQUIREDRefreshments will be served after the show in our Ballroom.
