Swords & Shields
|
Posted by Andrew Reif
We're half way through the Swords and Shields membership drive and some
people are taking advantage of this opportunity for their own chapter. No
chapters have yet reached the goal of 12 members, but the competition is
heating up. A hand full of chapters have brought in members pushing them
ahead of other chapters. Who wouldn't want a big sword or shield to grace
their chapter, to show off to all the other DeMolays in Iowa? Get those
friends and neighbors to stop by the temple some night for a prospect party.
Plan a night where you guys show what DeMolay is all about and how it is a
great way to meet new friends and have fun with all that your chapter and
Iowa DeMolay provides. Another great way to impress your friends is by
having a huge sword to show off to them, but that's for you to get. Prove
to the rest of the state that your chapter has what it takes to be the best.
We have almost 1 month left to bring in those members you need to win the
grand prize. Accept the challenge! Get out there, get excited, get
members, and get a sword!

Cedar Rapids Paintball
|
Posted by Carl Todd
On February 28th, Cedar Rapids Chapter #10 went paintballing at an amazing place in Vinton.
This indoor arena was nothing but the most intenseshort fights imaginable.
With each gamelasting an average of less then ten minutes and then you add in the fact that
we were there for eight hours; so it was pretty much almost endlesscombat. The close range fire
fight in "the office" area was quite painful, but was worth it all when youshot some guy you didn't
know with three balls at ranges of 15 feet or less (and watch him scream.) The only drawback of
our event was that we only had one prospect. The event as a whole is easy to plan get a
bunch of guys, go tothe field, rent guns, start shooting, and have fun. I know that any chapter is
capable of doing something like thisevent, but I bet that any chapter could do better then we on
the prospect partwith a small amount of effort.

Leadership Correspondence Course
|
Posted by Brandon Stone
May is LCC month, and a time of year when Iowa especially pushes it's members to get cracking on LCC's or leadership correspondence courses.
This May looks to be one of the best yet. Here is some information on what you can look forward to on your LCC's.
- There are 5 LCC's in DeMolay
- They are all open book
- Almost ever single answer is in the Leaders Resource Guide (The Holy Grail of DeMolay knowledge)
- Here are the topics of the LCC's
- Basic Knowledge of DeMolay and Awards
- Same as 1st LCC but more advanced
- This is about "Hi Dad"
- DeMolay advanced knowledge
- DeMolay Leaders Resource Guide
That looks like a lot but their not hard and you can do them all in a relatively short amount of time. If you haven't taken an LCC before you should ask your chapter dad about it or an advisor. If you would like any other information regarding the leadership correspondence courses I personally would be more than happy to explain it to you or find out what you want to know. To get ahold of me you can email me @ stonermc2003@hotmail.com.
