About Us

Elks Lodge — photo 1

The Elks Lodge at 1706 Greenbrier St has been a cornerstone of civic life in Charleston, WV for generations. Walk through the front door and you'll find something that's genuinely hard to come by these days: a room full of people who actually show up for each other. Members gather here not out of obligation but because the Lodge delivers something the internet never could, real human connection rooted in a shared commitment to community.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks is one of America's oldest and most respected fraternal organizations, and the Charleston chapter carries that tradition with purpose. From scholarship programs that send local students to college, to veterans outreach that extends well beyond a single holiday, to youth activities that give kids in the Kanawha Valley a reason to stay engaged, this Lodge puts its resources where its values are.

A perfect 5-star rating from members who keep coming back says more than any brochure could. If you're looking for a place to belong in West Virginia's capital city, the Elks Lodge on Greenbrier Street is worth a serious look.

What We Offer

Membership in the Charleston Elks Lodge opens the door to a full calendar of events, a welcoming social hall, and access to one of the largest charitable networks in the country. Monthly meetings keep members connected and informed, while regular social events, holiday gatherings, and community fundraisers fill the schedule year-round.

The Lodge actively supports veterans' services, local youth scholarship programs, and community outreach initiatives that make a measurable difference in the Kanawha Valley. Members also gain access to the national Elks network, including reciprocal privileges at Elks Lodges across all 50 states, which is a genuine perk for anyone who travels.

Whether you're a longtime West Virginian or new to Charleston, the application process is straightforward and the membership benefits are immediate. Come to a meeting, see what the Lodge is about firsthand, and decide for yourself.

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.
