Vision:How do non-members see us?
How do masons see us?
More important! How does the younger generation see us?
You want to be the most prestigious order that everyone wants to belong to

Are you in uniform?

Committee Planning
Try not to plan during any major Blue Lodge Events
Talk about programs: Christmas observance, Easter observance, knights templar education foundation and KTEF etc…
Talk about ritual example: how the York Rite bodies are a continuation of the Blue lodge degrees
Contact target members! Constant follow up

SummaryAssign members for follow up and mentorship
Make candidates feel welcome (feel at home in the commandery)
Contact candidates not just for business but once in awhile for just plain conversation
Offer educational programs ( not only ritual)
Remember ritual is for ritualist, education is for ALL)
