my lodge is nearly dead and only has just a handful of older members so we really don't do anything other just regular old stated meetings. BUT I am confident enough to say that come elections in Dec I will be elected to the East and I have on trying to chance that. The hard part will be getting enough men behind my ideas like contacting each of our local members. I heard it said... well I did that when I was in the East and it didn't work...so this is the attitude that I have to fight to try to changes a few things. In the WM installation charge it says to cause the law book to be read in open lodge but Ive never seen it done before except once when there was a specific subject brought up

Kudos to you brother. You know, at least if change does not get effected, you will know that you gave it your all and tried (though I wish you success!). I like the idea of sending out "masonic birthday" cards as discussed in another thread, also sending out a newsletter with a short talk maybe to drum up interest. The way I see it, you've got to give them a reason to come back/stay!

One WM of one of my lodges did "Read a code" monthly. He usually managed to pick something applicable. Code about balloting the night of a ballot. Some that were just entertaining to read because of the way they were phrased. Something cool a sitting WM can chose to do that few decide to.

Thanks for the support bros I really to some things different in my lodge and it would really awesome to see some changes in th GL as well. We have no requirement for ritual wrk not any officer programs but changing things in GL is like a drop of water on a boulder everyday it takes a LONG time. I would love for MS to immolate TX GA SC and a whole hosts of others
