Australia Day promotions

Recently at the Orange Australia Day breakfast at Cook park, The Lodge Canoblas Lewis ran a Freemasony promotion tent.

Yep, Canoblas Lewis promote The Craft

We didn't sell anything.

We merely handed out leaflets and talked to any interest man about Freemasonry and what the craft is all about.

We even refered the men to the other lodges in the area. We made the suggestion based on geographic location, indicated  free nights and by the general feel of the candidate.

This prompted the question: Why?
Why are you promoting all the lodges in the district  rather than just grabbing all enquiries for your own lodge?

Simple.

At Canoblas Lewis we believe that a rising tide floats all boats. And what is good for one will in the long term benefit all!

We have long enjoyed positive relationships with our fellow lodges, as we all seek to make our members better men.
In addition, we also want to see a higher profile for Freemasonry in the general community. In order to achieve this aim, we will happily refer candidates to a more appropriate lodge; after all, there is no point in us having a casual member who attends 3 nights a year when the alternative would see him attend 10 nights a year and really enjoy the lodge setting.

We truly believe that men need Freemasonry! And if a potential candidate would fit in better at an other lodge then so be it.

It will work out better for the candidate and for Freemasony as a whole.
Win/Win!

So Mote it Be!
