Summer time! Many Lodges and Valleys halt their meetings during the months of July and August. It is a time to rest and refresh ourselves. Take a vacation. Spend time with our families. Many of us also look forward to our Annual Council of Deliberation meeting at the end of July. It’s a time to meet with our Brethren in a relaxed atmosphere, renew friendships and establish new ones.
The summer is also a time to plan for the fall. Before we know it, meetings will begin again. Will you be ready to welcome new Brothers into your Valley? Is your Valley ready to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of our Northern Masonic Jurisdiction? With this issue we will look at ways to help us "hit the ground running” with Table Settings four expressed goals:
1) Reach out to our membership and ensure we are taking care of them. “THE FIRST MISSION OF OUR MEMBERSHIP is to ensure that we RETAIN those members that we already have…”
2) Develop ICE initiatives.
3) Develop new membership. And;
4) Collect and exchange ideas on how to do all of the above.
