Membership Committee - Mocha News Noble Shayne Eldridge It's the hazy lazy days of summer - time for spending time at the beach, enjoying bbqs and recruiting new Nobles for Mocha. Summer may be a time to take a break from some things yet we should never minimize our efforts to bring new members into the world's greatest philanthropy. The Fall ceremonial will be upon us before you know it - it would be Feztastic to see as many or more candidates as we did at the Spring ceremonial! The recruitment process is not just a matter of waiting for good men to ask to become a Shriner. We need to actively inform prospective candidates about we have to offer and the good work that we do. You never know when the opportunity will present itself so make sure you always have an application form handy - have it presigned with your signature on it. In order to retain our current members we need to get them involved in clubs, units and Shrine activities. Do we have enough activities to keep all our nobles interested and involved? Are we having fun? New members should be assigned a mentor who ensures that they know the activities available and someone is there to introduce them at events and functions. We must also build on our relationships with our Blue Lodges. Membership success of our Shrine Temple is directly related to the membership success of our Blue Lodges. Remember the acronym Elvis Presley used to use - TCB (Taking Care of Business). For every Shriner, it is GTL - Go To Lodge! Technology is a great tool for reaching prospective members - we need to increase the use of the Mocha website and make use of Facebook and Twitter. The web site beashrinernow. com is an important tool for membership recruitment and we all need to do what we can to promote this website. We ALL, every Noble of the Ancient Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, have an important role to play in keeping Nobles in your Shrine and bringing in new Nobles. Remember why you became a Shriner and all those children who need our hospitals.
