Lodge membership opens the door to a national network of Elks lodges, charitable giving programs, and member-only benefits at locations across the country. Locally, that means access to the pub, lodge events, and the welcoming common areas that members have called consistently clean and comfortable.
For traveling Elks members on the road, the RV parking area is a practical desert oasis. The gravel lot accommodates rigs of any size with room to spare, and a donation of around $10 to $20 per night keeps the operation running. No water hookups are available, so plan accordingly for a true dry-camp stay.
Beyond the parking lot, the lodge hosts community events, fundraisers, and the social programs that have defined the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks for generations. If you are passing through Gila Bend, AZ on I-8 or looking to get more involved locally, Lodge #2089 is worth a stop.
