To be eligible for membership in the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, you must be a citizen of the United States over the age of 21 who believes in God.

​

You can be proposed by any member in good standing from any Lodge in the country.  The Elk who proposes you for membership will provide you with a copy of the Membership Application, or will email you a link to the online version of the form. Please follow all instructions and answer all questions. If applying via hard copy, please return your completed application to the Lodge Secretary.

​

Your application will be read at a regular Lodge meeting.  At the following Lodge meeting, the membership will vote on your application.

​

When the vote is concluded, you will be notified and asked to present yourself for orientation. During orientation, you will learn more about the Order's programs and charities. You will also be told during the program the date you will be initiated.

​

After initiation as an Elk, you can take part in all meetings and social functions of the Lodge.
