Live jazz anchors the week here. Thursday nights bring rotating acts curated by John, ranging from Gypsy Jazz to straight-ahead swing, all in an intimate room where the music wraps around you rather than bouncing off distant walls. Saturday nights extend the run for those who missed Thursday or simply want more.
Beyond the music, the lodge offers full bar service in a comfortable, no-pretense setting. Members and guests mingle at the same bar, which keeps the atmosphere genuinely social rather than transactional. The Elks also host private events, community fundraisers, and member gatherings throughout the year, making the space available for groups who want a real room with real character rather than a rented banquet hall.
Membership in the BPOE opens additional benefits: access to Elks lodges across the country, participation in charitable programs, and the quiet satisfaction of belonging to an organization that has been doing concrete good in American communities since 1868.
