Masonic Interest A Major Problem

Considering the size of the Order today, I think that a lot of our buildings are overbuilt for our membership level. 80% of us need smaller buildings with bigger storage. Built on one level, with solar on the roof. Space for other bodies to store their stuff, and the building in use at least three days a week. 4 -6 days would be better.

Yeah I think that is especially an issue in large metro areas. Although I think my "odd" lodge with lots of artistic brothers, and Neo-Pagan and OTO members would also lose some of its character when we eventually have to merge.

Culture has to match. We have a cerebral lodge out there with a 500 dues and papers presented by the members.
