Marietta Elks Lodge #477
The Marietta Elks Lodge #477 was founded April 27, 1899. In 2024 the lodge celebrated its 125th anniversary.
Unfortunately our beautiful lodge, located on the banks of the Muskingum River, was completely destroyed by fire on February 11, 2001!
In 2001/2002 we re-established the lodge at our current location. Besides losing almost all of our records of 102 years of existence in the fire, we lost a full body stuffed elk which at the time was believed to have been the largest elk killed in North America.
The lodge was recently awarded an Antlers charter and is working to grow the program in the commmunity.
