As TSteven said, most of the Large GLOs status change and is hard to keep up with.
When you look at some of the largest, LXA, SPE, TKE, SX PKA, etal, are ever expanding.
LXA and TKE are both on a two pronged front:
1. Re Chartering.
2. Opening in new Territory.
TKE did just affiliate with a Local at Central Methodist in Mo. I passed it along to My IHQ.
I can relate back to the 60s when the Major IFC GLOs were not expanding except LXA and TKE. Since then, expansion has become of a thing to stay alive. Lose 1-2-3-4 and not replace, well draw your own conclusion.
The Union Triad were the worst and are finally realizing, Hey, we better do something soon.
Life changes, change or die.
