Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update

March 24, 2020

From the National Lodge-03/21/20:
We have received numerous questions regarding the advisability of FOP meetings in light of the ongoing Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Our Constitution and Bylaws do not address states of emergencies under these circumstances, and Robert’s Rules does not offer any clear guidance. However, based on our review of the various emergency orders issued by state, county, and local governments, as well as the recommendations from the President of the United States and the Centers for Disease Control, we believe the circumstances relating to the outbreak of COVID-19 have made it impossible, illegal and impractical for FOP Lodges to hold meetings at this time.
Hillsborough Sheriff’s Lodge #108 will not be serving dinner nor having a meeting on April 14, 2020.

******Please pass on to other members that you know.*****************

Fraternally,
John CoueyPresident
