to the Colorado Elks State Association page. If you are a member of the Colorado Elks and not signed up with the Webmaster to access the private pages of this web site, well why not? It is easy to do and there is so much information on those pages. Chances are you are missing out on some good stuff as we are updating our content. Soon you will be able to go to individual Committee Pages for information including their reports from the Quarterlies.

If you are visiting our Website because you are curious about becoming an Elk, well you have come to the right place. We are the best kept secret on the planet! Did you know that the Elks donated the monies to set up the first field hospitals during WW1 and we gave a million dollars to the US Government to purchase what was to become the first VA Hospital? The history of the Elks is interesting and you can help us continue to write that history by becoming a Member and Volunteering in your Community. You can either contact a local Lodge from the list on our website or you can go to www.elks.org , enter your zip code then choose the Lodge that is closest to you.

This year our Order has been celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the Benevolent Order of the Elks (B.P.O.E). Here in Colorado we are proud to say we have been helping our Communities, our Children and our Veterans for the past 136 years! Within the State of Colorado we have fifty five (55) Lodges within six (6) Districts and approximately 23,000 members! That equates to 200,000+ volunteer hours and almost 8 million Dollars in cash and in-kind donations back into our Communities just last year alone.

Come join us in helping to change the world for the better, one life at a time. Become an Elk!!
