| The Colorado Elks Association and
the Great State of Colorado welcomes you to the CEA website honoring
the home of 54 dedicated and devoted Elks Lodges.
If you are currently a member I know you are proud of the charitable
work and accomplishments of our Order. If you are a visitor, we
hope to inform and enlighten you of the many diversified programs
we are involved with in our respective communities and throughout
the State. We are always looking for new members to join us in our
efforts. If you are interested in obtaining more information please
contact your local Elks lodge.
As State President for 2009-2010 year, I would like to invite you
to visit our beautiful state and the many historical sites as well
as visiting some of our older Elks Lodge’s that are still
in their original buildings. These lodges have beautiful old architecture
and Elks memorabilia. We are home to Denver 17, the “Mother
Lodge of the Rockies” and oldest
lodge in the state. My lodge, Canon City 610, is also an original
Elks Lodge and we welcome you to stop by and visit with the members
and see our beautiful lodge room. Stop by and visit our Major Project,
Laradon Hall, a school for disabled and developmentally challenged
individuals from infants to adults.
As Elks, we face tremendous challenges and must be creative in our
initiatives to sustain our lodges. We are extremely proud of our
past and must be even more dedicated to our future in order to promote
the good works of the Greatest Fraternal Organization of America.
If any of our ideas helped, remember “Elks Care, Elks Share”
and Elks in Colorado are proud to do our part.
My wife, Vicki, and I welcome you and thank you for visiting our
State website.
George H. Uhland
President Colorado Elks Assoc.
