Regional Manager Notes Click on buttons below to view From the Interim General Governor: Important Information on Fire and Property Insurance Many Lodges have a misconception concerning fire and property insurance and believe their Risk Pool insurance also insures their property. Property Insurance is not part of the Risk Pool Insurance Program and does not insure the Lodge’s property from fire and other disasters. Currently, Lodges are not required by the General Laws to maintain fire and property insurance on their Lodge buildings and property. Lodges with mortgages are generally required to keep property insurance policies in effect as a condition of the mortgage. There have been too many situations where Lodges, after successfully retiring their mortgages, dropped the fire and property insurance coverage. After a major fire or other catastrophe that totally destroyed those uninsured properties, the Lodge was left without funds to rebuild. It really is a shame to see the assets lost that took many years of hard work from many dedicated Boards of Officers and members who selflessly donated time and labor. Please--don’t let this happen to your Lodge. -- Jerry O’Connor
