About Us

The Richmond Elks Lodge has been doing something that most organizations only talk about: actually showing up. Members here raise serious money for veterans, fund local scholarships, and gather for the kind of genuine fellowship that's harder and harder to find. With a 4.2-star reputation built on over two dozen member and guest reviews, this lodge earns its loyalty the old-fashioned way, through consistent action and real community bonds.

The lodge sits at 880 Technology Park Drive in Glen Allen, offering a hall that comfortably accommodates up to 100 guests for private events, meetings, and celebrations. Members describe it as the only private lodge worth belonging to in the Richmond area, and the friendships formed here span decades. The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks charter that governs this lodge dates back to 1868 nationally, and the Richmond chapter carries that legacy with pride.

This is a place where handshakes mean something, where the same faces show up year after year to volunteer, vote on causes, and raise a glass together. If the bathrooms could use a refresh, the people inside more than make up for it.

What We Offer

The lodge offers a private event hall that seats up to 100 people, available for member gatherings, family celebrations, retirement parties, and community fundraisers. The space is straightforward and functional, the kind of room where the focus stays on the people, not the décor.

Beyond the venue, Richmond Elks membership unlocks a calendar packed with social events, charitable initiatives, and civic programs. The lodge runs dedicated veterans support fundraisers, youth scholarship drives, and holiday events throughout the year. Members gain access to reciprocal privileges at Elks lodges nationwide, making this one membership card that travels well.

New member inquiries are welcome. Whether you're exploring Elks membership for the first time or transferring from another lodge, the Richmond chapter keeps its doors open to men and women who believe in giving back.

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
