The ECHS has a full roster of officers and town representatives plus various committee chairman over specific projects.
Business is done at a monthly board meeting.
The general meeting is usually held on the last Thursday of each month where all members are invited to bring guests. The Society tries to spot-light one of many local authors, lecturers, and teachers, or those who have written about Utah, the settling of the West, or about Emery County or a related subject of interest to the membership. Once or twice each year, speakers are also invited from the Utah Humanities Council Speaker's Bureau. When the back roads are dry enough to travel in the Spring, outings begin to one of the fascinating pictograph or petroglyphs areas, an abandonded mine, a pioneer trail, a dinosaur quarry or an old rock house or log cabin. Sometimes part of the trip is made in covered wagons, four-wheel drive vehicles or on foot with an adventurous hike to an obscure area.
