elks club
Benevolent members' lodge
A local chapter of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, a fraternal organization founded in the United States in 1868.
Elks clubs operate lodges that serve as social gathering places, typically featuring a bar, event space, and charitable activities.
Membership was historically restricted to white men, though the organization has since opened to all adults: My grandfather spent every Friday night at the Elks club.
