We are in this same situation here at my lodge. We have three lodges in our area who are in similar dire straights but the thought of merging or even the mention of selling the building sends everyone scrambling like 2 years olds screaming "MINE!" I don't know what to do. Will we have to fail to make the point? When did masonry become the building it's housed in?

Let me ask this question along the same lines. Should there be a time when GL should step in analyze the situation and recommend a merger? I know in Tarrant County we have 29 Lodges. Some of those 29 can barely open a Lodge meeting with members. I know no one wants to be the one to close a lodge but at what point does that lodge need to decide to merge to possibly rebuild and grow to possibly open again.

Should we keep doors open to keep doors open?
