Yeah, I'm sure that some things can be done under the radar. Seems to me that under-the-radar community service would not lead to people holding up Masons as exemplars of community service, though.

I hear ya and that depends on what the purposes of your organization and service are. I never saw Masons as trying to be anyone's exemplars or needing to be visible, since they tend to operate more on a "if you know, you know" basis.

Plus, for GLOs, not every bit of service is done so an organization can be held up as exemplars of community service. A lot of it is really thankless and less visible.

Very true.
