South Miami/Coral Gables Elks Lodge Ballroom

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks (BPOE) is a non-political, non-sectarian and strictly American fraternity. Membership in the Order is by invitation of a member in good standing only. To be accepted as a member, you must be an American citizen, believe in God, be of good moral character and be at least 21 years old.

The Elks Lodge is where your neighbors come together, friends and families share meals, and children grow up. Elks invest in our community through programs that help children grow up healthy and drug-free, by undertaking projects that address unmet needs, and by honoring our mothers, veterans and the USA flag. Every Elks lodge observes June 14th as Flag Day, a tradition which the Elks began in 1907 and was later adopted by the US Congress as an official observance.
