About Us

Elks Lodge building with American flag and parked cars.

On Myrtle Street in Melrose, Lodge 1031 has been a gathering place where handshakes mean something and neighbors show up for each other. Members here don't just pay dues and disappear. They run food drives, fund scholarships, support veterans, and keep the kind of civic muscle alive that most towns have quietly lost. That 4.8-star rating from real members says more than any brochure could.

Step inside and you'll find a space that carries its years honestly. It's not a hotel lobby or a chain restaurant. It's a lodge, with all the warmth and character that word implies. Regular events fill the calendar, from community fundraisers to members-only socials, giving people genuine reasons to show up week after week.

Elks Lodge 1031 is part of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, one of America's oldest fraternal organizations, chartered to serve and strengthen the communities its members call home. Melrose has been lucky to have them on Myrtle Street.

What We Offer

Lodge 1031 offers membership in a fraternal organization that actually does things. The community programs include scholarship awards for local students, charitable giving to veterans' causes, and hands-on service projects that put members to work in Melrose year-round.

The lodge hosts private events and socials for members and their guests, providing a comfortable venue with a genuine neighborhood feel. Members gain access to a network of Elks lodges across the country, meaning travel never has to mean going it alone.

New members go through a straightforward application process and are welcomed into a brotherhood with deep roots in American civic life. Whether you're drawn by the service mission or simply want a reliable community of like-minded neighbors, Lodge 1031 gives you somewhere real to belong.

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
