    Grand Lodge of Texas Codebook

    Again, it's just that it feels as though there are many ways of bringing in additional income for our GLoT and local lodges, but we run in to "road blocks" which prevent us from doing so. I understand that there are laws put in to place and certainly do not suggest doing anything against State...

    Hello from South Texas.

    Greetings South Texas! Although I'm from South Texas myself (Beeville), I was raised in Augusta, GA while in the mililtary back in '86. Joined the Scottish Rite in Germany and now I live in Wylie, Tx (NE of Dallas). It's been great and I've been to many lodges all over the world and Caribbean...

    Grand Lodge of Texas Codebook

    It's a pretty much well known fact that many people have purchased the code book that is available in stores (and we can't do anything about that) and have used it to practice and learn from it (can't do anything about that either). It's also pretty easy to determine who has done that when the...

    Fund Raisers

    I recently heard that there is a limit on the Fund Raisers that a lodge can perform per year? If so, how many and why? I find it strange that we are a fraternity that believes and charity contributions and to do that we need money. There have also been discussions about raising our dues and...

    Fresh Ideas For Raising Funds

    So how would a Fund Raiser be made for people wanting their CHL? We know there's a cost for getting the CHL so how would a Lodge set it up as a Fund Raiser for the Lodge. I like the idea, just don't know how to go about it.

    Tweaking the iPhone

    ok... question for someone not too keen on the Masons for Texas iphone app......... How do I get rid of the #1 that has now popped up next to my icon. I keep looking to see if there is maybe a message that was sent to me, but I don't see anything anywhere. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong...

    Fresh Ideas For Raising Funds

    Sounds kinda like people that track objects using GPS. I forget what it's called, but they find and object, tag it and put it back for others to find.

    Endowed Memberships

    Not quite sure about it all. My first impression is that it's good because many (or most I would guess) get it while they still have a decent income and are working. Again, thinking of the future when one becomes older and is on a "fixed" income that may not be able to afford the annual dues at...
