Membership in Lodge No. 893 opens the door to a national network of Elks lodges, meaning when you travel, you travel with community already waiting. Members have found familiar faces at lodges across the country, a testament to the brotherhood the B.P.O.E. has built since its founding.
The lodge hosts regular social evenings, civic initiatives, and charitable efforts rooted in the values of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks: charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity. The lakeside setting at 259 NE Hernando Ave gives every gathering a backdrop worth staying for, and the staff behind the bar bring the kind of attentive, personal service that keeps members returning.
Guests are welcome alongside members, and the atmosphere is consistently described as warm and inviting. Whether you're a longtime Elk or exploring membership for the first time, Lodge 893 is an active, engaged chapter with real roots in Lake City, Florida.
