Witscheman

Lodge Handbook

The Witscheman, or Lodge planbook, encompasses lots of information on the Itibapishe Iti Hollo Lodge. It holds our history, information on Chapter and Lodge Leadership, as well as our rules and policies. This Document is a great reference for not only new members but long time brothers as well.
