About Us

Two children hugging in a cozy lodge interior.

At 320 S Kentucky Ave, the Sedalia Elks Lodge 125 has been a fixture of this Missouri town for well over a century. Ask any member and they'll tell you the same thing: the doors open, someone pours you a drink, and you feel like you've been coming here your whole life. That's not an accident. It's the culture this lodge has built, one handshake and one round at a time.

The facility itself is a genuine asset to Sedalia. The multi-purpose event building hosts everything from wedding receptions and baby showers to fundraisers and civic gatherings, giving local families and organizations a dignified, affordable space to mark the moments that matter. The historic main lodge carries the weight of generations, with the kind of character that newer venues simply cannot manufacture.

Membership in the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks connects you to something larger than a social club. Lodge 125 contributes actively to the Sedalia community through scholarships, veterans' support, and charitable programs backed by the national BPOE organization. Travelers passing through for events like the MEA State Convention have made it a point to stop in, and the welcome they receive keeps them coming back.

What We Offer

Lodge 125 offers a full-service bar with some of the most affordable drink prices in Sedalia, making it the kind of place where a group can actually relax without watching the tab climb. The bar is staffed by people who genuinely enjoy the job, and regulars will tell you that alone is worth the membership card.

For private events, the event hall accommodates weddings, baby showers, reunions, fundraisers, and organizational meetings. The space is clean, well-maintained, and priced to keep it accessible for community groups and families. Lodge leadership works with event organizers directly to make sure gatherings run smoothly.

Membership in the Elks Lodge also opens access to the national network of over 2,000 lodges across the country, meaning traveling Elks members can find a familiar welcome almost anywhere they go. Local programs include youth activities, scholarship funds, and support for veterans, all administered through the lodge's volunteer membership.

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
