In what different ways do you support your blue lodge? Do you serve as an officer, on a committee/degree teams, or fundraisers? How did you go about getting more involved. Are there certain things you did to get to where you are at in your service?
Even though I'm newly raised, I'm taking on doing some EA instruction.
But I really want to stress the importance of giving the new brothers something to do. Don't assume that they will know what needs to be done, or that they are extroverts and will ask.
Our junior deacon and senior deacon spots are always pro temed.

We've seemingling also had this problem with about 1 chair a year but I think we are finally addressing that if you are an officer, your attendance at stated meetings should be considered mandatory and other called meetings its got to be pretty high on your list. Otherwise... don't be an officer. And if the lodge can't scare up enough men to fill the seats adequately, that's an even greater problem.
