OK, I apologize for even asking. I was only asking a question. Didn't expect these answers.

Sorry, Dame D-it was only a bit of fun, but it obviously hurt. If Elks are an organisation like Rotary, then there's often a meeting on cruises for similar groups to join. I hope you find friends-jocap.

Our last cruise was an organized trip with the ELKS. A portion of the trip (on Princess-to the Carib) went to Elks Major Projects:p Good---

 

Are there any other Elks cruising out there? :rolleyes:

 

 

Yes! I am a Life Member of the Burien, WA Elks Lodge!

 

My wife and I try to cruise on Princess twice a year. I have never cruised on any cruises organized by the Elks or Veterans organizations that I belong too. Both have had cruises and other organized activities, etc.

 

I do attend meetings called for on the ships for Veterans, Emergency Services (Police, Fire and Para-Medics.) I have always enjoyed meeting fellow Police & Military Veterans. Princess has at on time supplied free Champagne and even gifts at one Veterans' meeting I attended.

 

If you were on a cruise you could ask your Cruise director, to have a notice put in the ships newspaper (Patter on Princess) for all Elks Lodge members onboard to meet at a given location and time, etc., on a sea day! :)

Now tell me you don't enjoy People whom pile bacon on their plate so hi, they have to cross-stack it?.. My self, I can resist most desserts, until it comes to frozen, I will be in line there, trying not to act an pig..but turning the bowl just so. My fellow Seniors all seem to enjoy soft serve....Ya.

This forum doesn't have vacationers, it's mostly a jury.

 

Every forum has it's mustard seeds.

Their is an ignore feature when they sprout up.

 

A lot of good people here.

Traveling with the Elks would be an excellent adventure.

Are these the same B.P.O.E. Elks that discourage minorities from even thinking of joining their organization?

Just curious.:cool:

 

You are probably getting mixed up with the B.P.O.E. of W. that have certain membership requirements. The B.P.O.E. has NO requirement of Race, Gender, or Religious affiliation. I have been a member for almost 30 years and can say, in Massachusetts, we had many members who were minorities.
