Colorado Elks Association

Welcome to the Colorado Elks Association web site. This site is targeted for three types of visitors. First, current in-state members can use this site to obtain information about the association and events that are coming up that are of interest at a state level. Much of the information is available in our Members Only Area which you can sign up for by following the links on this page. Be sure to sign up with your email address here -- Join Our Email List -- to receive email messages and notifications of important CEA events. Second, visiting members from other states can use the site to find out what we are doing in Colorado and if you are visiting in our state, we provide information about the 54 Lodges throughout the state that you may want to consider visiting. Third, if you are not a member, I would encourage you to find a Lodge near where you live and contact them about what it takes to become a member.

Please feel free to call or stop by any of our lodges throughout the state for membership or any other information. As Elks, we are extremely proud of this Association and our mission as stated by our Grand Exalted Ruler: "Elks give from the heart!" ♥

At the National Convention, I am looking forward to the opening ceremony where I will be carrying in our state flag. I hope we have a good turn out and Colorado will cheer loudly for our state. Also, if you haven't got your room reservations in yet, contact John Hutson. Our allotment of rooms is filling quickly. And while your at it, contact Jerry or Alice Hilzer for the Colorado Luncheon tickets. We have also been asked to participate in the celebration of the installation of Millard Pickering as GER -- another opportunity to get loud at the convention.

At the State Convention in September, the Friday night BBQ dinner will be held at the hotel this year. Tom McKibbon and his crew will be doing the cooking outside in the hotel parking lot and we will be eating inside the hotel. Casual (western) dress is appropriate.

Do you know that it has been 25 years since we have had a new lodge in our state. We also have not had a Grand Exalted Ruler from our state in about 80 years. I think it is time to work to change both of these things.

Sincerely,
Frank Sommer, President
Colorado Elks Association
