Posted: 5/8/2012 8:55:04 AM ea and FC are welcome to travel to other lodges but they must be either vouched for by a MM or attend with one that can. it's also up to the lodge visited to allow them access. we had a guy a couple of years ago that atteneded an EA degree at another lodge not long after being initiated. our secretary contacted theirs and they welcomed him in. the big thing is being able to prove your who you say you are. thats hard to do without a dues card.
