About Us

On West 5th Street in Pratt, Kansas, the BPOE Pratt Elks Lodge has long been the kind of place where people show up for each other. That spirit is not abstract. When a local family recently lost a loved one and had nowhere large enough to host a gathering, the Lodge opened its hall without hesitation. That is what this organization actually does, day after day, in a small Kansas community where it matters.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has operated lodges across America since 1868, and the Pratt chapter carries that same mission forward on the plains of south-central Kansas. Members come from every walk of life in the area, bound by a shared commitment to charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity. Evenings here feel like the best kind of small-town gathering, where familiar faces and new friends share a table.

With a 4.5-star rating from local reviewers, the Lodge has earned genuine goodwill in Pratt County. Whether members are organizing fundraisers for veterans, hosting community events, or simply sitting down together after a long week, this is a place where belonging means something real.

What We Offer

The Pratt Elks Lodge offers members access to a full-service lodge hall suitable for private events, family gatherings, and community functions. The space can be made available during times of need, as the Lodge has demonstrated by hosting memorial receptions for families with no other venue large enough to hold their guests.

Beyond the hall itself, Lodge membership connects you to a national network of over 800,000 Elks members, local charitable programs, scholarship opportunities for area youth, and support for veterans and active military in Pratt and surrounding communities. Regular social events, dinners, and fundraisers keep the calendar active year-round.

The Lodge also participates in Elks National Foundation programs that funnel thousands of dollars back into local communities annually. From youth drug awareness initiatives to Hoop Shoot basketball competitions for kids, the programs here go well beyond the four walls of the building on 5th Street.

"It's great atmosphere. Very nice they let us borrow it for family gathering due to a loved one passed away. I'm so grateful that let us use the place in time of need and not having a big enough place for everything and everyone. Thank you folks for everything you did to help us out. Gary Metcalfe"

"Don’t dare try and use their electricity on the side of their building to charge your electric vehicle otherwise 3 really big dudes and 1 fat girl will come out I am bombard you. They come out with bad attitudes and act like you just stole $10,000 from them. They are completely uneducated about electric vehicles and how cheap they are to operate. I misunderstood their website and thought it was free so 3 times I have stopped in to plug-in and gain about 5% battery so I could make it to my next fast charger. Big mistake! I am making a YouTube video off of my front and rear dash cam that shows them bombarding me I will put subtitles because the audio quality is not that great because I got out of the vehicle but they immediately work combative and extremely rude. One person could have came out and resolved the issue but they chose to send 4 people out and try and intimidate me. They told me their electric bill was $2000 the prior month which I hadn’t even charged there in about 3 months before this incident. I told them if their bill was that high they need to invest in LEDs and I tried explaining that what little electricity I have used has maybe cost 20 cents and they acted like it’s hundreds of dollars to fill up an electric car lmfao. They wouldn’t even give me a chance to try and educate them about how cheap it is to operate an electric vehicle I tried explaining that I charge at home every day and my electric bill went up maybe $10 a month max and that’s charging fully every day NOT 4-5% that I was getting there. They are hillbillies that do not understand the future. What kind of business owners go outside and try and intimidate people? I own 3 businesses and would never act that way. My car cost $140,000 I have no reason to steal their electricity nor do I need to steal! I would have gladly went in and gave a donation. Just thought I would share my story. This was brought l daylight, I can’t imagine how these people act when they are drinking. Intimidating people is not the way to handle things these days. I normally carry my gun on my hip and if I would’ve got out of the car like that things might have went a lot worse over something so silly and by saying that I don’t man I would harm them but they, with their horrible attitudes may have seen my gun (which is legal) and pulled a gun on me instantly. Just FYI for anyone who is thinking about going in there and drinking. You might get threatened like I was."

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.
