The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks is built on four core values: Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love, and Fidelity. These principles guide everything we do—from supporting veterans and youth programs to helping families in need and strengthening our communities.

At the Biddeford-S**o Elks Lodge #1597, we are proud to put these values into action every day through volunteerism, community service, and caring for one another. Whether it’s lending a helping hand, supporting local causes, or simply being there for a neighbor, we strive to make a positive difference.

Elks Care. Elks Share. Elks Make a Difference.

If you’re looking for a way to give back, connect with your community, and be part of something bigger than yourself, we’d love to welcome you to our Lodge.

Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the Biddeford-S**o Elks Lodge #1597 First Annual Car Show before the rain rolled in!

We were thrilled to see so many incredible vehicles, meet so many passionate car enthusiasts, and spend the day with our community. A special thank you goes out to all of our volunteers whose hard work, dedication, and countless hours made this event possible. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Because of your support, we were able to raise $500 for Healing Paws For Warriors, Inc., helping provide service dogs to veterans in need.

Congratulations to all of our award winners, and thank you again to everyone who participated, attended, volunteered, donated, and helped make our first year such a success.

Keep an eye out for us next year—we’re already looking forward to making the Second Annual Elks Car Show even bigger and better!
