Why join

The Aerie has been Royal Oak’s fraternal home since 1926. Members get together for meetings, parties, watch parties and weekly nights in the Aerie Social Room, and the money we raise goes back into local causes. It’s a place to make friends, give back and have a say in how it all runs.

What we stand for: liberty, truth and justice, equality and charity. People helping people.

Who can join

Membership is open to anyone who supports our mission; you don’t need an invitation.

You do need to meet the Grand Aerie’s requirements, which every Aerie follows.

  • 21 or older. We are an adults only social club and look for members who are of legal drinking age.
  • Good moral character and a belief in a Supreme Being. You’ll confirm both on the application.
  • Two proposers. Two members in good standing sign your application. Aerie applicants need two Aerie members; Auxiliary applicants need two Auxiliary members.
  • Not a member of another Aerie or Auxiliary, unless you’re transferring or applying for dual membership.
