Provincial Aerie must now carry liability insurance, GA delegates decide

In addition to general liability coverage by all Local Aeries naming the Grand Aerie as an additional insured party, all State and Provincial Aeries must now have their own liability coverage also naming the Grand Aerie as an additional insured party.

New statutory requirements were approved by delegates to the recent Grand Aerie Convention in Orlando FL.

Provincial and State Aeries must also file up to date affiliation agreements with the Grand Worthy President's office. Such agreements detail the relationships between the two Eagles jurisdictions and their contractual obligations to one another. responsibility for ensuring that these documents are filed now lie with the Provincial or State Worthy President and Secretary.

To further enforce these requirements Provincial and State Aeries will no longer be entitled to services from the Grand Aerie, including Grand Aerie representation at Conventions, if the documents have not been filed.

Nor will members of any Local Aerie not compliant with all statutory requirements, including current liability coverage and affiliation agreements and payment of per capita taxes, be entitled to attend or send delegates to any Provincial Aerie function, including strictly social events.

No Ontario Local Aerie is fully compliant, according to today's Member Management System Club Health Report, though mailing delays could account for some of the issues. Only Webbwood 4269 shows documentation submitted that its officers are bonded.

Toronto 2311, London 4060 and Heyden-Goulais Rover 4061 do not show evidence of current general liability coverage. Toronto 2311 shows membership fees of $360 due and Webbwood 4269 shows $50 in membership fees due. Heyden-Goulais River 4061 shows per capita taxes of $154 due.
