About Us

A lively pool area with people enjoying the sun and music. — Elks Lodge
A lively pool area with people enjoying the sun and music.

On West Washington Avenue, the Jonesboro Elks Lodge has been doing something simple and powerful: bringing people together. With a 4.8-star rating built on 87 honest reviews, this isn't a place that coasts on reputation. Members keep coming back because the staff shows up, the spaces deliver, and the atmosphere feels like something you actually want to belong to.

Summer afternoons here mean kids splashing in the pool while parents unwind poolside, the kind of easy, unhurried day that's harder and harder to find. Birthdays, anniversaries, and milestone celebrations fill the banquet hall on weekends, and the feedback is consistent: the staff makes every event feel handled, not just hosted.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has a mission rooted in charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity. The Jonesboro chapter lives that out locally, supporting veterans, youth programs, and the broader northeast Arkansas community. If you've driven past and never stopped in, that changes now.

What We Offer

The Lodge offers a full-service banquet hall that members and their guests use for birthday parties, graduation receptions, wedding receptions, corporate gatherings, and everything in between. The room is spacious, the setup is flexible, and the staff coordinates the details so hosts can actually enjoy their own events.

Beyond private events, members enjoy pool access through the summer months, making the Lodge a genuine family destination rather than just a meeting hall. The event venue can accommodate large conventions and association meetings as well, with the infrastructure to handle crowds comfortably.

Membership in the Jonesboro Elks Lodge also connects you to a national network of over 800,000 Elks members, local charitable initiatives, and a social calendar that keeps the Lodge active year-round. Prospective members can visit jonesboroelks.com to learn about joining.

"My husband and I absolutely love being members of our local Elks Lodge. It has truly become one of our favorite places to spend time, especially in the summer when we enjoy taking our kids to the pool. The atmosphere is always welcoming, the food and drinks are great, and it’s such a fun place to gather with friends. One of the best parts of being members has been the friendships we’ve made here. The sense of community is really special. We also had our 10-year wedding vow renewal at the Elks, and it was absolutely beautiful. The staff made everything so easy, and it was the perfect place to celebrate such an important moment with our family and friends. We’re so grateful to be part of this community and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a welcoming place with great people, great food, and a wonderful atmosphere."

The Order · Since 1868

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
