98th Annual Mid Winter Convention has been Canceled.

November 13, 2020

On Monday, the Idaho Governor made a decision to move Idaho back to a Stage 3 status. This requires a limit of no more than 50 individuals in one room at any time and other restrictions.
Consequently, the Live portion of the Winter Training Session will be canceled but the Virtual Training Session will still occur. Additional information will be out 10-30-20.

All in person attendance has been cancelled. Later today we plan on getting out the Virtual Schedule so that members can view and participate. The State Officers, as well as some presenters, will be in attendance, therefore keeping to the 50 person restriction. If anyone has Hotel reservations they will need to CANCEL them. Sandpoint Lodge will be doing the refunding of your Registration costs and this will take place as soon as they can get to it. Zoom links will be sent to the Idaho Lodges email addresses as well as any other officer email addresses. We encourage that all interested Elks Members take some time to attend the Zoom Training sessions if possible. If you need the links, please contact your Lodge or ER. Thank you to everyone for your understanding and please all of you Stay Safe.
