In 1988, the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Arkansas began a perpetual memberhip program in Arkansas. This program allows Lodge members to pay an amount equal to 16 times the Lodge's annual dues, thus exempt from further annual dues by the Lodge. The money is invested by the Grand Lodge and each subordinate lodge receives a dividend check each year based upon the amount of money invested. This program has actually become a financial "life saver" for most Lodges in that dues from members who have passed away are continually or "perpetually" returned to the Lodge each year. The Officers of Huntsville Lodge encourage each member to become a perpetual member in the Lodge. We can think of no greater gift that a member can bestow upon the Lodge. Many wives and children give them as gifts. It not only helps the members (no more annual checks for dues), but guarantees the financial security of the Lodge for the future. Your dues card will be sent to you automatically each year and your name will be engraved on a plaque that hangs in the Lodge lobby as well as posted on this site. It you are interested, contact the Lodge secretary and he will assist you in obtaining your perpetual membership. Currently, the price is $480 which can be paid in one lump sum or paid out over time.
