EMEMBERSHIP

There has been a lot of confusion on what to do with an eMember when you receive the notice from the state. The steps are outlined for you on the email message but are below for your reference. If there are any questions or concerns about eMembers and what steps you are to do, please contact either your District Deputy, George Metz, Mike Incorvati, Jerry Nowesnick or Jim Maslach. We can assist you through the process. State Exemplifications are every Wednesday at 7PM via Zoom. Supreme has the On-Demand feature.
