Lodge Bulletins should serve as a vital link of communication in keeping your members informed and active. Lodge Programs and activates are an important step to encourage the members to participate and stay involved. The bulletin should contain timely information from the Officers and Committees of the Lodge with the use of pictures of various events.

The Bulletin should:

· Be easily readable, organized and informative.

· Report news items of the Lodge, District, State and National levels. With emphasis on

any recognition received from civic or community projects involving your Lodge.

· Use of photographs to illustrate a news item that is reported.

Include articles written for and directed to all members, not just VIP’S.

Please make sure that the following District Editors are on your mailing list to receive your lodge

bulletin, as they will be judging at the district level. All district winners will be given to the

Mass. State Lodge activities committee for judging at the state level.
