This is an "unofficial tentative" schedule intended to allow advanced planning and general understanding of the events of the Grand Chapter Session. Vendors are available for a range of OES and Masonic attire and accessories at competitive prices.  This is a great opportunity to try on that perfect dress or jewelry, and to obtain that special nametag.  The vendors rent space from the Grand Chapter.  For info Vendors should contact Tom Collie, PGP at pgp1985@oes-nc.org. Except for the "Open" Informal Session Monday evening, and the "Open" Installation Wednesday evening, all attendees are required to wear Registration & Dues Cards for access to the main meeting hall.  You may attend portions of a day, and except for certain brief periods, you are allowed to enter and leave the hall as need arises.
