How To Join

 

To inquire about membership, talk to a current member, or contact a local chapter.  To find chapters in your area, contact the Grand Secretary of that state or province.  Petitions are carefully read, eligibility investigated and election to membership must be by a vote of the Chapter.  The Order strives to select persons of mental, moral, and spiritual quality who will work together in harmony to perform its objectives.
