Many Roles. One Shared Purpose.

What does an Exalted Ruler do? How do our officers, House Committee, and Trustees work together?

Welcome to our Auburn–Grass Valley Elks Lodge #538 leadership series! Each week, we’ll explore the roles that help our lodge serve its members and our communities.

Here’s the big picture:

🔹 Exalted Ruler — Presides over lodge meetings and provides leadership under the Laws of the Order and lodge bylaws.

🔹 Lodge Officers — Carry out distinct responsibilities supporting lodge business, records, finances, meetings, and ceremonies.

🔹 House Committee — Oversees club operations under the management structure established in lodge bylaws.

🔹 Trustees — Carry property, investment, budgeting, and financial oversight responsibilities, subject to Elks law and lodge approval where required.

These are general descriptions; our lodge’s approved bylaws define local arrangements.

And members are part of the picture, too! Attending meetings, asking questions, volunteering, and voting on lodge business help shape our future.

Whether you’re a new member or a longtime Elk, there’s always something to learn—and a place to contribute.

Two Communities. One Lodge. 💙
