27 Ways to Show Your DeMolay Pride!

For the past half and hour, I stared blankly at my screen looking for some inspiration to write. What I didn't realize is the inspiration sits all around at my desk in the form of promotional cards, t-shirts and posters. This got me thinking, how many ways can we promote our Chapters for DeMolay Month, outside of the usual? Promotion is one of the best things we can all do for a non profit organization and it takes everyone in the Chapter/Organization to be successful!

Without further adieu., I present the 27 Ways to Show your DeMolay Pride!

1) Wear a DeMolay shirt.
2) Talk about DeMolay to friends.
3) Hang posters up about DeMolay.
4) Have a daily DeMolay question to answer on social media.
5) Share a DeMolay Facebook page.
6) Throw an awesome prospect party!
7) Visit a Rainbow Girl's or Job's Daughter's function.
8) Create a Harlem Shake video using DeMolays. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NolXf4-8MnA) Thanks, Tom Moyer!
