The 2025 State Officer packet is officially published for those active DeMolays, Sweethearts, and Priory Queens who wish to seek elected state office for the 2025-2026 term. This packet includes the forms and guidelines for the following offices facing elections:
  • State Master Councilor
  • Deputy State Master Councilor
  • State Senior Councilor
  • State Junior Councilor
  • State Illustrious Knight Commander
  • Deputy State Illustrious Knight Commander
  • State Sweetheart

Additionally, the current Deputy State Master Councilor has chosen not to seek election as State Master Councilor. Both SMC and DSMC are available offices at the 2025 Conclave. Attached is also the SMC-Elect handbook for those actives who wish to seek the office of State Master Councilor to get acquainted and familiar with the expected job duties. The SMC-Elect handbook must be completed and submitted with the declaration.
 
We hope you all will encourage any of your qualified members to seek office and serve DeMolay Texas. Please let me know if you have any questions.
