Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks
The Benevolent and Protective
Order of Elks is an American
fraternal order founded in
1868 in New York under the
name “Jolly Corks” by 15
actors, entertainers and others
associated with the theater.
Today, headquartered at Elks
National Veterans Memorial
in Chicago, Illinois, it is one
of the leading fraternal orders
in the United States, claiming
nearly one million members and
nearly 2,000 “lodges” across the
country.
Elks lodges bring more to
their communities than just a
building, golf course or pool.
They are places where neighbors
come together, families share
meals, and children grow up.
Elks invest in their communities
through programs that help
children grow up healthy and
drug-free, by undertaking
projects that address unmet
needs and by honoring the
service and sacrifice of our
veterans.
The Marietta Elks Lodge, the
only lodge in Cobb County, is
in Marietta on Powder Springs
Road.
