About Us

Anaconda Elks Lodge #239 building exterior on a sunny day.
Anaconda Elks Lodge #239 building exterior on a sunny day.

Travelers passing through on US-1 have been stopping cold in their tracks when they step inside Anaconda Elks Lodge #239 at 223 Main Street. The building alone is worth the detour, a genuine architectural gem that first-timers consistently describe as phenomenal, the kind of place that belongs on every Montana bucket list. Members Betty Ann and Errol (ER) have become local legends for the warmth they extend to every visitor, whether a lifelong Elk or a curious stranger just rolling into town.

The Lodge sits in Anaconda, MT, a city shaped by copper and grit, and the hall reflects that same honest character. The long bar is a beauty, the dance floor stretches wide enough for a real Saturday night, and the atmosphere stays clean and genuinely inviting. A 4.8-star rating from 33 reviews is not an accident. It is the result of members who actually care whether you have a good time.

This is also a place where life's milestones happen. Belated wedding receptions, anniversary dinners, and community banquets have all found a home here, complete with live music echoing off the high ceilings. If you have never walked through the front door of Lodge #239, you are overdue.

What We Offer

Lodge #239 keeps its calendar packed for members and guests alike. The main hall and its beautiful long bar are available for private events, from intimate gatherings to full-scale receptions with live bands. The large dance floor makes this one of the best live-music venues in the Deer Lodge Valley, and the setup crew knows how to transform the space for weddings, milestone birthdays, and community fundraisers.

Beyond the event calendar, members enjoy regular lodge meetings, Elks-sponsored charitable programs, and the kind of easy camaraderie that is hard to find anywhere else. The BPOE (Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks) national network means your card travels with you, so visiting Elks from across the country are always welcome to pull up a stool.

Interested in membership? Prospective members can learn about the application process directly through the lodge or at elks.org/239. Community service, scholarship programs, and veteran support are at the core of what Lodge #239 does every single year in Anaconda.

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
