In another thread, a discussion ran into maybe we have too many lodges. The thought being we needed to consolidate the smaller lodges into larger ones in the same area. That in turn led me to wonder what are the largest lodges in Texas by membership. I have compiled a small list using the information off the GLoT website. Now we all know this information is not kept updated for various reasons, but it should be close enough for my purpose. I also included 2 of the smallest lodges I found. Any corrections or additions are welcome. Just for the record... I vote we keep things as they are.
