Canyon Elks are American citizens that come from all different walks of life, with the same common core valves, which guide their course in life by the cardinal principles of our order. Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity.

"They are places where neighbors come together, families share meals, and children grow up. Elks invest in their communities through programs that help children grow up healthy and drug-free, meet the needs of today's veterans, and improve the quality of life."

Veterans

Elks will never forget to pay gratitude to our Veterans. We honor our nation and our Flag. In 1907, the Elks designated June 14th to be Flag Day and in 1949, under President Truman, who was himself an Elk, Flag Day became a National Holiday. Canyon Texas Elks are serving our homeless Veterans with the Welcome Home Initiative with Welcome Home Packs to assist homeless Veteran’s transition into housing. We provide services and cooperate with our local Veterans Hospitals with programs including monthly Bingo, cook outs for Holidays, and collaborate with Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts to provide companionship and treats for the residents of our VA. Canyon Elks proudly provide a Veterans Retreat twice a year and encourage veterans to apply. All expenses are paid by the Elks and Veterans can stay at our Children’s Camp in Ottine Texas for fun activities like fishing and fellowship. Download Vet Retreat Application

Children

Children are at the heart of every Texas Elk. Our State Major Project is devoted to our Texas children in need. It benefits the Texas Elks Camp, located in Ottine, Texas. Children with any special needs can apply to attend our Elks Children’s Camp every summer for a week of fun activities and a field trip to Sea World. This is at no cost to the kids and is 100% funded by the Texas Elks. Elks also provide hundreds of thousands of dollars in grant funding to Texas children with special needs that are not covered under medical insurance.  All grants applications need to be submitted to the local Lodge to be voted on by the members and approved for final processing.
