About Us

A decorated event space with balloons and a cozy seating area. — BPO Elks Lodge
A decorated event space with balloons and a cozy seating area.

On Spruce Avenue in Ridgefield Park, the BPO Elks Lodge has been doing the kind of work that doesn't make headlines but absolutely makes a difference. Members here raise money for veterans, champion children with special needs, and keep the community table set with affordable weekly meals that anyone can enjoy. That's not a mission statement, that's what reviewers actually describe when they talk about this place.

The lodge has large-capacity event space and a crew of genuinely welcoming people behind the bar and at the door. Karaoke nights, Oktoberfest celebrations, and themed fundraisers fill the calendar year-round, giving members and guests something to look forward to every single week. A 4.6-star rating from members who've seen it all says plenty.

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks is one of America's oldest fraternal organizations, and this chapter carries that tradition forward with real action. If you've been looking for a place to belong, contribute, and have a genuinely good time in Bergen County, the door at 30 Spruce is worth opening.

What We Offer

The Ridgefield Park Elks Lodge runs a full slate of community programming that goes well beyond a members-only clubhouse. Weekly affordable dinners give neighbors a reason to gather without breaking the budget, and the large banquet hall can handle everything from private parties to major fundraising galas.

Veterans support sits at the core of what the lodge does, coordinating events and donations that serve those who served. Special needs children's programs receive dedicated fundraising attention throughout the year. Social events like karaoke nights and seasonal celebrations keep the energy up and the membership growing.

The lodge also opens its doors for community rentals, making it one of the more versatile event venues in Ridgefield Park. Whether you're a longtime Elk or someone curious about membership, there's almost always something on the schedule worth showing up for.

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
