Dear DeMolays and Advisors of Washington,

Congratulations on a fantastic Convention! It was wonderful to see the energy, brotherhood, leadership, and excitement that continue to make Washington DeMolay strong.

As we move into this new year, our message is innovation.

DeMolay has always grown by evolving, adapting, and responding to the needs of its members. The world around us continues to change, and so do the ways young men lead, serve, learn, and connect. Washington DeMolay is committed to meeting that moment with creativity, purpose, and a willingness to try new things while staying grounded in the values that have always defined our Order.

Your State Corps has planned an exciting year ahead, filled with opportunities for growth, leadership, fun, and meaningful connection. We encourage every Chapter, every Advisor, and every DeMolay to step forward, get involved, and help shape what comes next.

This year is not just about what is planned for you. It is about what you choose to do with it.

Remember: It’s your move!

Fraternally,

Dad Paul Jacobson

Advisor Survey

Does your chapter have resources we should know about?

It has been suggested numerous times over the past year that our Chapters have resources that the state program can take advantage of.

This link will take you to a survey that you can fill out to share many of those resources with us. Simply select the areas of the survey you would like to fill out, by checking the box for that focus. Then answer the questions that open up for you. When finished simply hit submit. You can submit as many surveys as you wish, we will compile and update your information each time.

This link will get added to the webpage at the bottom in the footer, so that you can come back to it as often as you would like. If you have suggestions please feel free to share those with us so we can consider them as we make updates to the survey.

Take the Survey!
