About Us

The exterior of the Elks Lodge building on a sunny day.

On any given Monday at 114 Main Street, the smell of hot dogs drifts through the hall and the bingo cards are already filling up. That weekly ritual is just one small piece of what makes the Southington Elks Lodge tick. With a 4.8-star rating built on 56 reviews, this lodge has earned its reputation the old-fashioned way, one handshake and one event at a time.

Every fall, the Apple Festival draws crowds who come for the fun and stay for the warmth of the people running it. Members and guests consistently remark on how genuinely friendly the atmosphere is, not the forced-smile kind, but the kind where you leave knowing a few more names than when you walked in. That spirit is the real product here.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has been serving American communities since 1868, and the Southington chapter carries that legacy forward with a full calendar of activities, charitable giving, and social events. If you've been looking for a place where showing up actually matters, this is it.

What We Offer

The lodge runs a packed schedule that gives members and guests plenty of reasons to walk through the door. Monday night bingo is the anchor event, complete with hot dogs, soda, and rotating weekly treats that keep regulars guessing. It's low-key, affordable, and genuinely fun, the kind of night out that doesn't require a reservation or a dress code.

Beyond bingo, the lodge hosts community festivals, seasonal celebrations, and member-only socials throughout the year. The Apple Festival has become a local tradition that draws families from across the Southington area. Charitable fundraising, youth programs, and civic initiatives round out the calendar, giving members ways to give back that go far beyond writing a check.

Membership opens the door to discounted events, access to the lodge facilities, and a network of fellow Elks that spans the entire country. Whether you're a longtime Connecticut resident or new to the area, the lodge offers a ready-made community that's worth exploring.

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.
