“We Are The Elks” 
“Swing Into Elkdom“
Grinnell Lodge #1266 serves Veterans
The Grinnell Elks prepared and served over 200 free Veterans meals. We were joined by members of both the local VFW and American Legion. The meals were served via curbside to maintain safety concerns and were all delivered within 2 hours.
All food costs were covered by donations from Lodge members
AboutIowa Elks
Our Mission
to inculcate the principles of Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity; to recognize a belief in God; to promote the welfare and enhance the happiness of its members; to quicken the spirit of American patriotism; to cultivate good fellowship; to perpetuate itself as a fraternal organization, and to provide for its government, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the United States of America will serve the people and communities through benevolent programs, demonstrating that Elks Care and Elks Share.
Our Goal
Elks Lodges bring so much 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, Veterans and community needs.
