Does your Lodge...
we go solid black from head to toe with out degree team lokks super sharp
We do a lot of degree work in PC
We try to meet up for practice every Thursday night. It's not always the same brethren conferring the degrees though, I have served as Jr. warden and Jr. deacon, and last night I did master of ceremonies for an EA. It was exciting!
we have a guy named this years "degree master" and he puts people into parts they can do. nobody has their traditional "spots" that they stick to... usually everyone does everything.
The problem I've seen with "District degree teams" is that Lodges come to depend on them & lose the ability to confer their own degrees. Even if your Lodge has to ask for help, I find that preferable to not being involved at all in the degrees. After all, the candidate joined a Lodge, not a district.
I couldn't agree more. That's exactly what happened at my Lodge. Ever since a "District Degree" team was formed, they've been our ONLY source for putting on Degrees. Unfortunately, if your schedule doesn't meet their practice times (30 miles roundrip btw) your asked to sit out for the Degree. Including current Lodge officers.
I will volunteer to go to Gonzales and help y'all relearn the work. Get you WM to set up a Friday night/Saturday type thing - I would bet we can get enough people just from here to turn your situation around pretty quickly.
