About Us

Exterior view of Lamar Elks Lodge #1319 building.

Out on US-287 at the edge of the Arkansas River Valley, Lodge #1319 has been a gathering place where Lamar locals and road-weary travelers alike find a warm reception. Members here are the kind of people who will invite a stranger in for a Mexican dinner night and mean it. That 4.2-star reputation isn't built on marketing. It's built on showing up, cooking well, and making room at the table.

The lodge hosts a rotating calendar of dinners, socials, and community fundraisers that draw both members and the general public. Weddings, receptions, and private events fill the event space throughout the year, offering one of the more distinctive venues available in southeast Colorado. Traveling Elks members passing through on US-287 will also find RV hookups on the property, a rare and genuinely useful perk on this stretch of the high plains.

As a BPOE lodge, #1319 is part of a national fraternal organization with deep roots in veterans' support, youth scholarships, and local giving. But the day-to-day feel here is less formal than that sounds. It's neighbors looking out for neighbors, a cold drink after a long drive, and a community that takes care of its own.

What We Offer

Lodge #1319 offers more than most people expect the first time they walk through the door. Dinner events are a regular highlight, ranging from crowd-favorite Mexican nights to holiday meals and special fundraiser dinners. The kitchen turns out real food, and the dining room fills up fast when word gets out.

The event venue is available for weddings, receptions, reunions, and private celebrations. The space has hosted memorable gatherings for the Lamar area and can be reserved for both member and select public events. For travelers, RV parking with hookups is available on the property, making this a convenient and affordable overnight stop along the US-287 corridor.

Membership in the Elks opens the door to a broader network of lodge benefits, community programs, veterans' initiatives, and scholarship opportunities. Guests and prospective members are encouraged to attend public events and get a feel for the lodge before joining.

"We had a wedding out there it was very beautiful. But the event lady and staff were giving ugly looks at everyone all night, she changed prices often…and tried to add more when we said no. She rolled her eyes a lot….the location was great just not the management"

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
