At the Grand Banquet, Kosair Noble Shawn Warren, Chapter Dad, was honored with the Kentucky DeMolay "Advisor of the Year" award. The Advisor of the Year honor is designated to give singular recognition to a DeMolay Advisor who in the past year has made outstanding contributions to the growth and success of the Order. The Advisor is one who should exemplify the ideals and precepts of the Order of DeMolay in his daily life as well as in his work with the young men in DeMolay. Selection of the Advisor of the Year is at the discretion of the Executive Officer of each jurisdiction.
