Fellow FOP Brothers and Sisters,
I hope this letter finds you well and healthy. As 2021 comes to a close, the Board would
like to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year.
After attending the National conference in Illinois this year, our state directors voted and per
capita will be raised starting 2022. Virginia is still the 2nd lowest state in the Nation on dues. I would like to inform our members of upcoming changes:
- VA State dues will increase for 2022. This is the first increase in almost 5 years.
The new annual membership dues for members are:
Active LEO’s: $75.00
Retired LEO’s: $45.00
- Legal defense: There will be a price increase in 2023. More information will
follow later this in 2022 on how to update your direct deposit.
The new member dues will take effective January 1, 2022. Please make the necessary
adjustments. If you are behind on your dues or have questions, please contact our
secretary, Lois Thompson at lthompso@vbso.net or text at 757-650-3863.
As always, it is my pleasure to be your Lodge President. Please feel free to contact me at
VBfop8@gmail.com with any questions or concerns.
Fraternally yours,
Jason Karangelen
President
