Lodge #506 offers a full calendar of member events, from weekly social nights to seasonal celebrations that bring the whole Creede community through the door. The lodge hall is available for member gatherings, and the bar provides a relaxed spot to catch up after a day on the trails or the river.
Beyond the social side, the lodge drives real charitable work: youth scholarships, veterans' support programs, and community grants funded through Elks National Foundation initiatives. Members also participate in Elks National programs covering drug awareness, Hoop Shoot competitions for local kids, and holiday food drives that reach families across Mineral County.
Membership is open to U.S. citizens 21 and older who believe in God. Prospective members can visit the lodge, meet current members, and learn how to submit a petition. Annual dues are among the most affordable ways to plug into a nationwide network of 800,000 members while staying rooted in the specific, irreplaceable community of Creede.
