WHAT P.E.R. MEANS
Former Lodge leaders who keep serving.
The Exalted Ruler is the Lodge's chief elected officer. After completing that service, the member becomes a Past Exalted Ruler. P.E.R.s bring experience, continuity and perspective to the Lodge, while continuing to support charitable work and future leadership.
Scottsdale Lodge #2148's P.E.R. Association is chaired by Anna Mineer. The association meets regularly and supports community projects through service, donations and fundraising.
P.E.R. COMMUNITY IMPACT

Granite Reef Senior Center Fountain Renovation
P.E.R. fundraising paid for a safety-focused renovation of two aging fountains at Granite Reef Senior Center. The project finished under budget, allowing remaining funds to carry forward into the next community project.
Recognized during Granite Reef Senior Center's 20th Anniversary Celebration on March 21, 2026.
This project is exactly why the P.E.R. bake sale and monthly fundraising matter: money raised at the Lodge becomes visible, lasting work in the Scottsdale community.
