Rituals Outside?

> it's pretty common for Acacia chapters to make use of Masonic Temples for rituals.

That's true. Also, some Masonic parks have outdoor "lodges" that work for the Acacia rituals.

I also think the problem is that there's more than just the ritual part for some groups. I actually wonder what differences there are for different groups of the same organization.

My original use of that statement was aimed at the places where they have issues handling the size of the initiate group but don't ask if there are better ways to do it because they've always done it that way. Is a ritual that lasts 3-4 hours due to the size of the class identical to that of the one that lasted only 1 hour because it was designed for a small group? If it's losing something due to the size of the class or the location, then someone needs to be asking the question - do we HAVE to do it this way?
