THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE MASONIC REMEMBRANCE DAY TIES*

• Convene a meeting or series of meetings to discuss the future of your lodge
- Include all members in this meeting or meetings, and not just the Past Masters or Lodge committee
- A suitably skilled, respected and experienced member of the Lodge should chair these meetings
- Involve the relevant leaders from your Province.

• Create a Lodge profile
- A Lodge Profile describes the Lodge’s key features and especially its characteristics, circumstances, expectations and values
- Lodge profiles help members to identify prospective candidates who are a good match to the Lodge
- Lodge profiles help members identify issues in the Lodge that need addressing
- If a common feature emerges (such as a sporting interest, hobby, old school), develop a prospective member’s ‘profile’

• The Lodge in its community
- UGLE is encouraging Lodges to become visible, recognised and respected within their communities
- Lodge profiles can be developed into promotional or informational literature for the Lodge
- The Lodge can engage in local community events
- It can also organise its own private and public events and activities open to friends, family and other non-Masons
- The Province should be consulted before any Lodge becomes involved in public events.

• During the planning meetings, identify:
- An enthusiastic member (not necessarily a Past Master) for the role of Lodge Membership Officer(LMO)
- At least one more knowledgeable member to assist the LMO when screening enquiries from potential candidates (see Step 4)
- A skilled interviewer to be Chairman of the Interview Panel
- Two other knowledgeable members (at least one who is not a PM, at least one who is a PM) to be members of the Interview Panel.

• Make decisions, record them, set deadlines, assign responsibilities for action and review at intervals.
