How old an APO ritual would you be comfortable with...

Uh, yes. There are usually some minor tweaks about every convention.

Also, the National Office usually sends to every Chapter, usually in the Fall, a complete set (8 or 9 books) of ritual manuals. So there is NO excuse for a chapter to be using old rituals atleast by the fall after Nationals.

By Minor Tweeks, one that springs to mind (perhaps wrongly) is having a section of the ritual read by the Service Vice President (who is also the First Vice President) rather than by the Treasurer.

No offense to Treasurers, but I can live without the Treasurers having a role in either the brotherhood or pledging ritual.
