The society is responsible for the upkeep and restoration of the lodge and its surrounding grounds. It also offers guided tours of the estate, allowing visitors to learn about the history and significance of the Thunderbird Lodge.

In addition to its preservation efforts, the Thunderbird Lodge Preservation Society also hosts a number of events throughout the year, including lectures, concerts, and art exhibitions. These events help to raise awareness and funds for the society's ongoing preservation work.

Overall, the Thunderbird Lodge Preservation Society is a vital organization that is dedicated to protecting one of Nevada's most treasured historic landmarks. Its efforts ensure that the Thunderbird Lodge will continue to inspire and awe visitors for generations to come.
