The Lodge office will remain open during normal business hours. However, we are requesting that all members transact their business by phone rather than appearing in person as we want to protect our civilian staff here at the Lodge. If you believe that you need to appear at the office in person, please call the Lodge at 312-733-7776 to schedule an appointment. We appreciate your understanding in these trying times.
Safety Equipment and Supplies
I am fully aware of the complaints about the lack of equipment and supplies the City has failed to provide you with. The Lodge Board of Directors has authorized the purchase of the items you need. Everyone in the office has contacted several private vendors to secure these items. Thus far, we have been unsuccessful as these vendors do not have products to sell. We will continue our efforts and will update you on any progress we make. President Kevin Graham Lodge FOP 7
