BOOKS AND RECORDS |

ARTICLE VIII
COMPENSATION AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST |
|
|
|
The officers of the IGAHR should not have any expectation about ever receiving any compensation from performing their duties to the IGAHR. Uncommunicated gratitude shall be their sole reward.
Family members of the officers are strongly encouraged to develop as many conflicts of interest as possible so that the officers will not continue to waste their time and effort on the activities of the IGAHR. |

The official seal of the IGAHR shall consist of a reasonable facsimile of the "Liberty Bell," positioned upside down, which has below it the initials of the organization and around it, in a circle, the full name of the organization. The font shall be the color of an unwashed, handbell practice glove (i.e. dirt brown).
The official motto of the IGAHR shall be: "Untying People Through a Musical Farce." |
