Membership
5016 WOW!
The final numbers are in. YOU DID IT! Congratulations to the Texas State Family.
You accepted our challenge to be the best that we could be in our 100th Anniversary
Year. Working as a TEAM, you did exactly that.
For years we’ve talked about:
TEXAS HAS NOT HAD ITS BEST YEAR YET.
I’m proud to tell you, that because of your cooperation and dedicated efforts,
TEXAS HAS HAD ITS BEST YEAR YET!
YES, THAT MEANS BEST YEAR EVER!!!!
INTAKE: 5,016 195 members more than previous best year
RETENTION: 1,316 107 losses fewer than previous best year
NET GAIN: 3,700 452 members more than previous best year
Brothers, this was truly a team effort. I want to thank our Membership Team headed up by State Membership Director Javier Martinez, but I also want to thank all of our Brother Knights and Ladies across our State who accepted our challenge to recruit “One More Knight.”
While we won the Net Gain and Percentage Gain competition against other jurisdictions in Division I, we finished third in the Circle of Honor behind Division VI jurisdictions Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic.
This year we started 12 new councils and reactivated 8 dormant councils for a total of 20. The following is a recap of those efforts:

80,000th MEMBER INITIATED
The only problem is, I haven’t been told who that member is. I’m told that I should find out who that member is, and receive a copy of his Form 100, next Tuesday. At that time we’ll know his council number and proposer also. Our final membership in Texas, which will be our starting membership July 1, is 80,175
