Our annual Christmas Party for Angel Tree kids is coming up on Saturday, December 15. Shoppers are already procuring gifts, and if you’re one of them, you need to have your gifts wrapped and at the lodge no later than 11 AM December 15. The party will be held from 12:30 – 2 PM that day.

We would greatly appreciate any donations for this event. The money will be used to purchase pizzas for the children and their families. Any donations can be given to Terry LaFontaine.

We also need volunteers to bake / bring desserts for the party. These should also arrive at the lodge by 11 AM.

If you’d like to help decorate the lodge for the party, please join us at 5:30 PM on Saturday, December 8 upstairs.

If you have any questions, or would like to volunteer or contribute, please contact Kristal Hankinson at (215) 219-9968 or email kristalhankinson@yahoo.com.

One of our favorite traditions at the lodge is our annual Thanksgiving Dinner. It’s less than a week away, as this year it will be held on Sunday, November 11. The meal kicks off at 2 PM, and we want all of our members to come down and join us!

There are two ways to participate. You can either bring a dish to share with your fellow members, or you can donate $7 that will be used toward the cost of the turkeys and hams the lodge is providing (Please note that any excess funds remaining will be donated to the lodge Veterans fund).

If you’re planning to attend, please sign up on the sheet located in the bar. Also, please note what dish you plan to bring. This will help us make sure that everyone has plenty to eat come Sunday.

We can’t wait to see you all there!

Come on down to the lodge on Friday, October 19 for our Oktoberfest Membership Drive! We’ll be featuring live music by Kentucky’s own Robby Cox. Members are encouraged to bring along a guest and show them the fun and fellowship that we enjoy at the lodge.

We will have food and drink specials as well, so don’t miss out. Mark your calendars for Oktoberfest!

This year’s annual charity golf scramble will be held on Saturday, August 11 at Juniper Hills Golf Course here in Frankfort. Lunch will be served starting at 11:30 AM, with a shotgun start to follow around 1:00 PM. As usual, we’re looking for golfers and hole sponsors for this year’s scramble.

We’re also still looking for door prizes, silent auction items, and of course volunteers. We also need individually wrapped desserts (cookies, brownies, etc.). If you would like to donate, volunteer, or play in the tournament, there is a signup area in the Lodge foyer to volunteer in various capacities. You can find all the necessary forms below. If you have questions, or would like to arrange a donation, please contact Mark Skeeters at 502-545-2415.

The Frankfort Elks would like the thank the Frankfort community for all of its support over the years with this tournament. We look forward to seeing all of you at Juniper Hills on August 11!

Elk members, our annual Elks Family Picnic is coming up on Saturday, August 26!

This year’s picnic will, as always, kick off with a golf tournament at Lakeview Springs. If you’d like to play, plan to be at the golf course by 8:30 AM. Teams will be formed, and the tournament will tee off around 9 AM.

The picnic itself will kick off around 11:30, when we’ll start serving food. As always, we’ll have inflatables for the kids to enjoy, cornhole boards, plenty to eat and drink, and more.

You can also expect our normal silent auction filled with fun items (if you have something to donate, bring it along!), as well as the live baked goods auction, so bring your sweet tooth!

We’ll see you at the Hancock Pavilion at Lakeview Park this Saturday!
