Chapters.
The Covenant is national by design. Local chapters carry the weekly rhythm. New Jersey and New York are active now; other founding cities plant as Captains step forward.
Chapter model
Local rooms, national bond.
Each chapter city has a Chapter Captain: a member trusted to recruit carefully, host gatherings, and hold the line on standards. Follow the men of that city; the pattern travels when the next market opens.
Chapters are not franchises. They are brotherhoods under one name, one scripture, and one expectation of how men show up, including how they honor marriage and household.
From West Orange, New Jersey, the Society is already living an NJ/NY metro cadence: weekend family activity, course days, and dinners. The broader founding map still stands for Year 1.

Chapter life
What a healthy chapter feels like.
Weekend rhythm
Where a chapter is active, most weekends carry family-friendly activity or members’ play so brotherhood is practiced, not postponed.
Household welcome
Wives and children are briefed and connected at family gatherings. Counsel among brothers still holds the Table rule.
Guests by invitation
The room stays selective. Ordinary guests need Captain approval; esteemed dinners and private-club settings need Society board approval. See Society guest policy.
National spine
Founder’s Tournament and cross-city travel keep active and planting markets one Society, not separate clubs with the same logo.

How city affiliation works.
- Apply with a city Select your primary chapter city on the application. Choose New Jersey or New York for the active metro. Choose Other if you operate outside the listed cities and want to be considered.
- Travel access Members can play across markets when visiting. Your home chapter remains your primary affiliation and accountability circle.
- Captain path Lifetime members and early Annual members in good standing may be considered for Chapter Captain roles as cities open.
- Guest policy Guests attend by invitation only. Captains approve ordinary guests; the Society board approves dinners and club settings. Full policy: Standards.
