How To Join
GET INVOLVED - JOIN THE ODD FELLOWS!
We get together every Wednesday at 6 o'clock PM
Requirements for Membership
A man of good character, who is loyal to his country and believes in a Supreme Being, the creator and preserver of the Universe, is eligible for membership. Odd Fellowship strictly forbids any interference with one's religious beliefs or political opinions.
Unity charges an initiation fee and annual dues. The amount of dues is $35.00 annually.
How to Join
A candidate must be sponsored by a current member, so the first step towards joining is to find someone who is a current member.
Ask people you know if they know anyone who is an Odd Fellow.
Check the Officers on this web site and send a note introducing yourself and expressing interest in joining.
Drop in on the day of a meeting about 6 and introduce yourself. Unity is eager to find new members and will be glad to meet you.
Check the Officers page for your state or province in this web site.
Check the local telephone directory.
Keep your eyes open for a building labeled with IOOF or the three links emblem, especially in the oldest part of Downtown.
Go to the Odd Fellows building and check for a sign listing the lodges that meet there.
After You Have Applied for Membership
When the lodge has received your application, they will appoint an interviewing committee of three members. These members will call on you, both to ask questions and to answer any questions you may have concerning the lodge. One purpose of the interviewing committee is to give a candidate at least three familiar faces in the lodge. At the next meeting, the interviewing committee will report back to the lodge. The lodge will ballot to accept you as a member. The lodge will then send you a letter announcing your election to membership and the date and time for initiation.
