⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"We went to the Celebration of Life service for Lloyd Farthing Jr. who passed away in November 2025. The Elks Lodge was nice and the service was very good the pictures showed gave good narrative of his very active life. Karen his current wife and April did a great job putting his Celebration together. I was married to Lloyd for 10 years and we have a beautiful daughter April Kai married to Cody and her 2 daughters. Everyone that talked about Lloyd had sincere love for him. He will be missed by all who knew him in Portland and the surrounding areas, all the way to Texas where most of his family lives. Good bye Lloyd until we meet again on the other side. Debra Farthing"

"Great place to join a membership that helps so many charities and where you can have fun raising money for those charities. The members are friendly. We've been members for 8 months and we've met so many new friends. It feels good!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"I go to the Oregon City Elks Lodge to play bingo on Wednesday evenings. (Disclosure: I am not a member) I know they are a fraternal organization, in which you have to pay yearly membership fees. That membership allows you to go to any Elks Lodge. There are some that have bowling alleys, swimming pools, little restaurants/bars, fun themed event nights/fundraisers, along with many other things! They do a lot of charity work. Different lodges have different amenities and events. Bingo at the Oregon City Lodge, specifically, is open to the general public (21+) and is a lot of fun!"

— Melissa Coverdell

⭐⭐⭐⭐

"I figured I'd try visiting for their bingo night. I found my way downstairs and got settled in. The elks members/volunteers were all very friendly as was expected. I brought a good sense of humor which is mostly understood. Bingo was fun, well run and reasonable prizes for the cost of playing. Returned the next week for round two. 👍🤠"
