What is Take Control! - DeMolay Madness? Simply put, it's the latest expansion to the Take Control! membership campaign. Just as video games will have expansion packs that bring more content and fun to a game, the Take Control! - DeMolay Madness expansion pack will bring more opportunities to you and your Chapter to win great prizes for doing what you already do - community service, ritual, and membership! The key component of the competition is the monthly pairings.
Beginning in February, 2011, Chapters will be paired up against each other (using Oustanding Chapter Competition scores) and will compete to see who can earn the most points by the end of the end of each month. The Chapter that wins each pairing will move on, while the Chapter that loses will be placed in a consolation pool. The only way to win first place is to win every pairing, but 2nd and 3rd place will be awarded to the Chapter with the most points in the competition - this means those that are in the consolation pool are still in the running!
What do you win? First place* wins a 32" Televisionor $300. Second place* wins an XBox 360 or $200. Third place* wins a Wii or $100.
Oh, and you can double dip! That's right, the Take Control! program is still in full effect. This means that not only can you compete by yourself in Take Control! but also with your Chapter in the expansion! So, go out there, Take Control!
*- First Place is the winner of the tournament. Second Place prize is awarded to the chapter which has the most points in the consolation pool.Third Place Prize is awarded to the chapter that has the second most points in the consolation pool.
