MEMBERSHIP AND LAPSATION

Without a solid membership base, and a robust program in place to recruit new members, and retain existing members, the organization will suffer.  To effectively manage the Membership and Lapsation program, it is essential that data be gathered each month from each Lodge.  Click below for a down-loadable form to provide the data to the General Chairman.
