Each Rainbow Jurisdiction has an annual convention called a Grand
Assembly. California's is held Easter week each year and it's location has changed from
year to year. It has been held in such cities as Sacramento, Long Beach, Anaheim, Fresno
and San Jose. Each Grand Assembly is unique and lots of fun. Try to attend if you can, you
won't be sorry.
