LODGE LAUNCHES NEW MY ELKS APP
The Santa Ana Elks Lodge has just launched a new app for your smartphone. It's the MyElks app and it's available through the App Store on your smartphone. With this new app, you can see upcoming events, read committee news, see a full monthly calendar including menu, activities and meetings, read the ElkHorn Magazine and more. You can even purchase tickets to the Valentine's Day Dinner Dance. You'll even receive notifications when there's news to tell. So make your smart phone even smarter. Download the MyElks app, then select Santa Ana as your lodge. (If you have the old app, you can delete it as it no longer works.)
​ONLINE CALENDAR
The calendar page of the web site has a wealth of information about what's happening when and where. You'll see all the major events and be able to purchase tickets to them, as well as every meeting, every event and every special happening.
ELK TV
Every Monday at noon, there's a live Facebook broadcast on the members page. This is where you'll hear about everything that's happening at the lodge that week. You can either watch it live, or watch it anytime on the Facebook members page.
​
​
ELKMAIL
Once you become a member, you'll start getting emails every Monday with the news of what's happening at the lodge every day that week. It's a great way to keep informed.
​​
SOCIAL MEDIA
The lodge has two separate pages on Facebook: a lodge page and a special members page that only members can access. Not only that, but it's where members can share their own photos of lodge events. We also have an Instagram page where we post photos of upcoming and past events.
THE ELKHORN MAGAZINE
We're very proud of our ElkHorn Magazine, the official monthly publication of the Santa Ana Elks Lodge. Inside you'll find a two-month calendar of events, columns from each of the officers along with our general manager, news from the different committees. what new candidates have been proposed for membership, who's having a birthday and eligible for a free pasta dinner, special events and more! If you'd prefer to receive your copy online instead of your mailbox, just call the lodge and they'd be happy to make that arrangement. And if you'd like to support the publication and promote your business by placing an ad in the ElkHorn, you can do that too! For ad rates, sizes and information, click below.
