"The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has been around since 1868. It is a great fraternal organization open to men and women 21 years of age and over. As a member of the Cedar Grove Lodge for over a decade I am proud to be a part of our many charitable causes such as veterans/active duty military personnel, special need children/adults and many more. We are very community oriented, fun loving group of people who volunteer spare time for our endeavors while having a good time in the process. We host many events such as BBQ's, fish and chips fry, chili contest and more all open to the public to support our charitable causes. The Cedar Grove Lodge also has a bar. (You must however be a member or the guest of a member to enjoy a drink at the bar due to our licence). There is a 2nd floor room to rent for members as well as non-members for special occasions. We are always looking for new members to join ( You need not be a Cedar Grove resident to join). Anyone is free to stop in or contact us if interested in joining or attending one of our many events. I realize as a member some may think my opinion is bias, but I was attending many great events there long before I became a member. It truly is a laid back easy going atmosphere at a great location (an old brownstone house dating back to the 1700's) with a parking lot and street parking."

A Proud Heritage

The Elks gave America
Flag Day.

Long before it was a national observance, the Order set aside June 14th to honor the flag. Patriotism has always been one of our cardinal principles, and every lodge meeting still closes the same way it has for over a century.

“To our absent members.” — the Eleven O’Clock Toast
