<p>Hello Brothers and Sisters, </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The July Full Board session convened in Philadelphia on July 12,
2019. &nbsp;Brother Green attended and is well on the road to recovery but
Brother Joe Mathurin, HDGM. presided during the business session. &nbsp;Please
note these two important agenda items that affect our entire membership:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>Opinion:&nbsp;Item
18 -&nbsp;Sale of Odd Fellows materials</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>We are aware some members are selling Odd Fellows and Household
material without oral or written permission from the Committee of
Management.&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It is the Opinion of this Committee that the Grand Secretary will
issue notifications to all members of the Order that any brother or sister who
desires the vending of GUOOF materials must first receive approval from the
COM.&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Additionally, once approval is received from the COM, ten percent
(10%) royalty is expected from all individuals or groups generating sales.&nbsp;</p>

&nbsp;An announcement of the site and all costs involved should be forthcoming
by the end of August 2019.</p>
