Grand Lodge 2011

Shoot, depending on work schedule and such I may even make the trip for a MoT meet-up. I think it would be loads of fun to actually get to meet some of you guys face to face.

The Committee on Fraternal Relations recommended a delegation meet with their counterparts in the MWGLTPHA and hammer out the wording of the "compact" for both bodies to adopt. Apparently the PH GL wants it to be pretty restrictive, as in having to go through the Grand Secretary to get permission to intervisit. And they seem to be pretty adamant about no wanting to allow dual memberships.

Is there an official source for this information?

 

[tomasball]

Yes. The official source is to sit through Grand Lodge and listen to the report. Otherwise, you will have to wait for the written prodeedings to come out next year. I suppose if you don't consider that fair, you can go to the Grand Secretary's office and demand to read the written report of the Committee on Fraternal Relations.

 

[Mac]

I consider that more than fair. I just know the issue is a touchy one, and appreciate the information.

Thanks for the information!
