New and looking to join near Fort Hood, TX.

I am just starting to get settled in here at Fort Hood, TX and was looking to find a mason at the Copperas Cove, TX location. Is there anyone that can connect me with someone? Thank you

In the US the standard method is to show up an hour before the scheduled meeting. Pick a few that are easy commutes from home. Introduce yourself and ask how to become a Mason. Get to know the brothers. Every lodge has a slightly different personality. Bigger and smaller, more and less active, members in certain occupations, you name it. Once you have been to a few of the lodges decide which one is for you. Don't be surprised if you know someone in at least one lodge and you had no idea he was a Mason.

Once you have selected your target lodge, put that meeting on your monthly calendar. Go every month from then on. Ask for a petition. Expect it to take a few months before the brothers know your interest is genuine.
