About Us

At 32 Church St in Lyons, the Elks Lodge has been one of Wayne County's most consistent forces for community good. Members here don't just show up for meetings. They show up when a local family loses everything in a fire, when a veteran needs a hand, when a scholarship can change a young person's trajectory. That's the culture you walk into.

The Lyons Elks Lodge draws some of the most genuinely good-hearted people in the region. Reviewers call them flat-out 'the best people on earth,' and that's not hyperbole from strangers. It's the verdict of neighbors who've watched members quietly do the hard work of community care year after year, with no fanfare required.

The lodge hall itself is a real gathering place. From private parties to civic ceremonies to casual evenings with people who actually know your name, this is the kind of venue Lyons doesn't have enough of. If you've never walked through the door, you're overdue.

What We Offer

The Elks Lodge at Church Street runs on service. Members organize food drives, fund scholarships for local students, support veterans' programs, and step up during community emergencies. This isn't ceremonial charity. It's hands-in-the-dirt, show-up-on-a-Saturday work that makes a measurable difference in Lyons, NY and the surrounding Wayne County area.

Beyond civic programs, the lodge offers a welcoming venue for celebrations. Private event rentals make it a go-to spot for birthday parties, anniversaries, reunions, and organizational gatherings. The space is flexible, the crowd is friendly, and the price point beats most commercial venues in the area.

Membership opens the door to a national fraternal network, local camaraderie, and the satisfaction of belonging to something that actually matters. Elks membership is open to American citizens 21 and older who believe in God and want to make their community stronger.

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
