Manuals

All manuals downloaded 5/4./2025 from Elks.org. You really should be going there. But, if you are here it's because you followed a link so that a quick and easy QR code could be made. Most people will never see this page. Grand Lodge puts the books behind a login. Which is fine, but that leads to people posting them anyway, and then that leads to very old versions being out there because search engines will find all the old ones out there on local lodge sites or even facebook, or reddit and you end up with all kinds of versions out there, and a lot of confusion. 

​

SO THAT IS WHY THE DATE IS UP TOP. IF YOU ARE IN THE YEAR 2026 or greater, then leave please and login to Elks.org.

​

There are 47 manuals on Elks.org. We are only listing the most important. And, one that they leave out (Robert's Rules of Order). Anyway, I hope you find this useful.

​

• Statutes (includes constitution of Order) - The MOST IMPORTANT

• Auditing & Accounting - 2nd Most Important (Money)

• Protocol Manual - Important for State politics, but considered 3rd most important by judiciary.

• Ritual Manual - Opening & Closing, initiation, etc.

• Robert's Rules of Order (Cheat Sheet) - How to conduct meetings. please remember, this is an AID, it helps, but Elks use a modified Robert's Rules, so, grain of salt.​

• The By-Laws of This Lodge, Pascagoula 1120 - This will not be the smoking gun you are hoping for, sorry. I'm confident because it always works that way.
