Elks Lodge & Club No 1289

This lodge doesn’t allow women to be members, what’s up with that??? And very rude, bartender well could use some kindness, very clicky

Though not a member, I’ve visited the Glendale Elks Lodge a few times, and found a mixed ethnic group of guests each time: Caucasian, Asian, Hispanic, Armenian — which reflects Glendale’s population. The Elks public service donations for needy causes reflect that mix as well. I don’t remember if any Blacks were there or not — African Americans make up only 1.3% of the population of the city– and those low percentages are also reflected in the violent crime rate in Glendale, one of the lowest in the nation: 1.2 per 1000 residents; compared to California overall at 4.23; and Los Angeles overall at 29.7.
An inconvenient truth: the higher the rates of black Americans living in an area, the higher the violent crime rates there. If you live in North Hollywood, or any other place in L.A. you’re more likely to be robbed, assaulted, raped, or murdered by black Los Angelinos then Elk Lodge members in Glendale. Also true If you’re an elderly white person in L.A. you are way more likely to get punched in the face in the Knock Out Game by blacks then by white people singing angry songs about idiots like Michael Brown. Let’s not forget he shoved and bullied an immigrant clerk half his size affter robbing him, then — per the forensic blood trail on the sidewalk — charged at a cop for more then 50 feet before getting taken down.
And are those criticizing the Elks here going to do the same for the black rap performers making anti white and anti police threats in their music, over the air and on the web, or just play dumb and pretend that kind of black racism wasn’t responsible for inciting the black who assassinated those two cops in NYC?

If you like your lodge with a bit of good ol’ fashioned white power racism, this is your place. Retired LAPD cop Joe Myers little shindig recently featured a band playing such classics as «Bad, Bad Michael Brown» to the Jim Croce classic «Bad, Bad Leroy Brown»; «OJ on the Run» to Paul McCartney’s «Band on the Run»; even some Christmas classics like «I saw Mommy kissing a black guy so I shot him and made it look a suicide.» But the hilariously funny version of the song Strange Fruit had me in stitches.
Fun times, fun times.

I joined the Glendale Elks Lodge 9 months ago.
I am a younger guy and was so surprised how amazing and welcoming everyone is.
It’s like a family I never knew I had. (My grandfather was a elk here in the 1940’s)
This is how the Elks are and how they operate.
The organization truly cares about Children and families & especially those in need. You can be as involved as you want, no pressure or being commited.
Once you do volunteer for a program and you see the reward of all the efforts come together like the food & toy drive at Christmas.
Seeing all the kids receive toys that they would have not had. A delivery of a huge food donation to a mother that had no food for her family.
That’s all you need to get hooked on charity.
Charity …Elks care & Elks share. This is true to the highest degree.
Join the Glendale Elks lodge no matter your age, young or older. We have such a diverse lodge.
come make a new friend or join one of our clubs Golf, camping club or one that interest you.
It’s truly life changing once you get involved & truly become a active dedicated member.
I have brought 7 new members in this year, every one is truly surprised on how cool it is.(there Ages are 25 – 52 years old on my new elk brothers that joined)
*** The Lodge has 40,50 & 70 inch new Tvs***Amazing full bar open every day & night for lunch & dinner.
The main lodge Room is huge and the perfect place to rent out for special celebrations, parties, weddings, meetings like the Kiwanis every week.
You can RENT the facility even if you are not a elk member.
Got to go for now, headed down to the lodge with the wife and kids to have a yummy Sunday breakfast.
My kids love the Elks & going to the lodge.
They have so many fun kids events all year long.

I joined the Glendale Elks Lodge at the suggestion of a family friend. Turns out to be one of my best decisions! For a mere $ 85-​or-​so annual dues, there are a lot of very cool benefits: inexpensive Sunday brunches for about $ 8, a place to take my friends and family for special occassions (Mother’s Day, Thanksgiving, St. Patrick’s Day, etc.) without breaking the bank; a fraternal atmosphere focused on giving back to the community, especially kids and much more.
