State Associations Bulletin Contest 'I'

How well does your State publication communicate within your State? Does it present news of events coming up and those that have taken place? Does it contain articles about Lodges of interest to other Lodges in your State? Articles about the State Association and its Officers? Timely news of your major project and other statewide charities? Does it publicize your scholarship programs? Here is your chance to see how your publication measures up to other State publications throughout the Nation. To find out, just enter Contest "I"!
