The Supreme Lodge office has the 'Start a New Lodge' colored brochures available, and we can also provide a 'New Lodge Checklist' which follows along with the procedures outlined in the brochure. Whenever the question is posed to me, 'I would like to join, but I live 100 miles from the nearest Lodge', I always reply with - "It now only takes 9 men to form a new Lodge" (not to mention that this new Lodge could always become part of a District and have functions with other Brothers and Lodges). More information can be found on Page 2 of Supreme Chancellor Dan Cowan's Program. If you do not have a hard copy of the Program, please visit pythias.org, click on the Members Area (at the very bottom on the left side menu), then click on the link 'Supreme Chancellor's Program' (the 5th item down, left side menu). And while you're there, please review all the other 'tools' within his Program.

Together, we CAN achieve M.A.G.I.C. - and this is the time of year for new beginnings.

Fraternally,
Don Grant SS
Supreme Lodge Membership co-Chairman
