A national, fraternal and charitable organization promoting and supporting community needs through the volunteer efforts of local lodges.
The qualifications to become a member of the Elks are:
Any person of good reputation, a believer in a Supreme Being, an adherent of lawful government and having attained the age of majority as established by the province or territory in which the Lodge is located.
All applicants for membership must complete a membership application form and be proposed by a member in good standing at a regular meeting of the Lodge. Once the Lodge Secretary informs the Lodge that the applicant has paid all necessary dues and fees, (which are determined by each local Lodge), a ballot upon the admission of the candidate is taken.
If approved, a date for an initiation is set. Once initiated by the use of a special and meaningful ceremony, the member is equally entitled to every privilege of membership.
