These Lodges are All American
By James E. Stewart
Committee Member
The 2020-2021 Lodge year was one of unusual circumstances. Nevertheless, our Lodges continued the great works of Elkdom as exemplified by the high quality applications received for the Contest ‘A’ — All American Lodge Contest. Complements to the many hundreds of Lodges that entered district contests and congratulations to the Lodges that achieved honors during their subsequent state competitions.
One-hundred and thirty-four (134) applications were forwarded for judging in the national competition. Each Lodge offered examples of fidelity to our Order and extraordinary service to their communities. You are models for us to follow. You make us proud to be Elks!
The three (3) top scoring Lodges in each of the six (6) membership divisions are awarded the title of “All American Lodge.” Congratulations to the following eighteen (18) incredibly special Elks Lodges!
