Masonic Acme Lodge #554 Teheran Grotto Licking County Shrine Club Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite Ducks Unlimited 13. For approximately four years, I was a member of the Newark Moose Lodge, the Newark Maennerchor, and the Newark Elks Lodge. When it became apparent that those organizations discriminated against women in their membership practices, I resigned. In 2000, I was asked to re-apply for membership in the Newark Elks Lodge. I advised that organization that I could not subscribe to their membership tenets as a result of their continued discrimination against women. In part, because of my position on this issue, I am proud to say that the Newark Elks Lodge has changed its practices and now permits women as full members. I do not currently belong to any organization which discriminates on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, disability or national origin.
