As many of you already know, the Lodge has been collecting seed money to create a Building Fund for the last two years. To date we have collected about $835 for this purpose.
In order to create the actual fund in which the money collected will be deposited, a bylaws change is required. The following amendment to the Bylaws of Broad Ripple Lodge was presented at the February Stated Meeting and was laid over for discussion and a vote at the March Stated Meeting. Per the requirements of our bylaws, this notification will be published in the paper Trestle-Board and distributed to all members of the lodge by US Mail.
Change: Add a new Article 13, to read:Posted by Nathan Brindle at February 12, 2005 10:04 AMArticle 13
