Who and What are the Sciots?

Sciots are a Masonic-Affiliated organization – every Sciot is a Master Mason – dedicated to the proposition that every Sciot is his brother’s keeper. Our motto is “Boost One Another!”, and we strive to carry this ideal into practical application.
We are an organization that values family involvement, and clean, wholesome fun.
Many of our activities are focused on fun and entertainment. But we have a more serious purpose. Beyond our underlying support of Masonry in general, and our desire to boost one another, The Ancient Egyptian Order of Sciots, through the Sciots Foundation, helps and supports children in need, particularly members of the Masonic Youth Orders – DeMolay, Job’s Daughters, and Rainbow for Girls.

Our History

Sciots were founded in San Francisco in 1905 by Charles H. S. Pratt. It was originally a social fraternity, but soon became much more – it was an organization dedicated to helping all Masons, whenever opportunity and need arose. That purpose continues to this day – we focus on assisting Craft Masonry whenever and wherever we can.

Who is Eligible?

All Master Masons in good standing are eligible for membership in the Ancient Egyptian Order of Sciots.

Our Organization

The Ancient Egyptian Order of Sciots exists under the authority of The Supreme Pyramid, and under the leadership of the Pharaoh of All Sciotry. The local bodies are known as Pyramids, each with its own officers, by-laws, and activities. The presiding officer of the local Pyramid is called the Toparch. Sciotry has Pyramids throughout California, as well as in New Jersey and Illinois. We are working on establishing Pyramids in other states, most notably Arizona, New York, Florida and Nevada.

Our Activities


Our activities are many and varied, and include:

Fun:

Sporting events, cruises, dances, concerts, bus trips, picnics, Food Festivals, Car Shows, camping, rodeos, social nights, games, fundraisers, talent shows, and many, many more.

Youth Support:

Youth order sponsorship, fundraisers, financial assistance to youth in need through the Sciots Foundation, attendance at Youth Order meetings, Sciots serving on Advisory Boards/Councils, and other activities.

BLUE LODGE SUPPORT:

Blue Lodge degree teams, Blue Lodge attendance, membership assistance, schools of instruction, candidate coaching, and many other Lodge support activities.
