About this directory & sources

This is an independent directory of Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks (BPOE) lodges in the United States. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by the BPOE, the Elks National Foundation or any lodge, and it uses no Elks emblem or logo.

Where the facts come from

• Lodge list, names, numbers, addresses, phone numbers, meeting schedules and listed websites: the official elks.org lodge locator, searched state by state on 2026-10-22.
• Hours, year instituted, history notes and Elks National Foundation grants: each lodge's own page on elks.org (home and facilities pages) and, where elks.org lists one, the lodge's own website (home page plus up to two "about"/"history" pages). Hours and history are short excerpts quoted as published, with a link to the page.
• Map pins: the free U.S. Census Bureau geocoder for street addresses; where an address could not be matched, the pin sits at the center of the lodge's ZIP code and the lodge page says so.
• ZIP and city search: U.S. Census Bureau 2024 Gazetteer files (ZIP Code Tabulation Areas, places and county subdivisions), bundled with the site.
• Map tiles: © OpenStreetMap contributors; map library: Leaflet (BSD-2 license), served from this site.

Coverage (checked 2026-10-22)

• Lodges listed: 1,770 in 51 states and territories (all 50 states plus Puerto Rico; the elks.org locator listed no lodge in Washington, D.C., and overseas lodges such as Panama Canal No. 1414 are not included).
• Street address: 1,770. Lodge website listed: 686; elks.org lodge page: 1,770.
• Hours posted: 643. Meeting schedule: 1,770. Year instituted: 320. History note: 225.
• On the map: 1,767 (1,604 matched to the street address, 163 placed at the ZIP code center).

Lodge numbers were assigned roughly in chartering order, but we do not use a lodge number to guess its age. A year is shown only when a lodge page states it.
