The Elks Hall Association was a unique entity created to transfer the ownership of the Antlers Investment Company, which owned the building used by the Elks for a lodge, to the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, Susanville Lodge 1487.
It came about from a meeting held on March 2, 1929 between the Antlers Investment Company and the Susanville Elks Lodge. It should be noted that many of participants were members of both entities. The result of the meeting was the formation of the Elks Hall Association which sole purpose would take the necessary steps to acquire outstanding stock of the Antlers Investment Company. Besides the outstanding stock the Antlers had $2,300 in encumbrances attached to the building—that was the easy part. At issue was certain stockholders of Antlers declined to become members of the Elks organization. In 1931 everything was resolved and title transferred to the Elks. Mission accomplished both the Antlers and Elks Hall entities were dissolved.
