About Us

Outdoor cooking area with smoke and autumn leaves. — Elks Lodge
Outdoor cooking area with smoke and autumn leaves.

When the floodwaters rose in Humphreys County, the Elks Lodge on West Main Street didn't wait for someone else to act. Members fired up the grills, set up tables, and cooked meals for every displaced family who walked through the door. That kind of response isn't a publicity moment for this lodge. It's just Tuesday.

Founded as part of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, this Waverly chapter carries a 4.8-star reputation built on exactly the kind of moments described in its reviews: real neighbors helping real neighbors. The lodge hall serves as a gathering point for community fundraisers, veteran support, youth scholarships, and the sort of casual Friday-night fellowship that small towns depend on.

Sit down with a member here and you'll hear stories spanning decades, names like Andy Anderson passed down from one generation of friends to the next. That continuity is what separates this lodge from a generic social club. Waverly, TN has a place where the door opens wide and the community walks in.

What We Offer

The lodge offers a full calendar of member programming, community outreach events, and hall rentals that make it one of the most active gathering spaces in Humphreys County. From disaster relief meals to holiday charity drives, the Elks connect members with meaningful ways to serve.

Membership unlocks access to the lodge hall, social events, and a national network through elks.org. The lodge also administers youth scholarship programs, supports local veterans, and organizes fundraising events that channel money directly back into the Waverly community.

The hall itself is available for private functions, giving families and organizations a well-kept, centrally located space on West Main Street for receptions, meetings, and celebrations. Whether you're exploring membership or simply need a venue, the lodge is worth a call.

"Hi Elks Lodge! My father has an old friend, Andy Anderson, who he would love to reconnect with. Any help finding him would be greatly appreciated. We came to visit Andy up on Tennessee Ridge almost 20 years ago when I was still in high school. He’s such a great character and we believe he spent time with you all at the Zella Lodge. Thanks again for any help. -Sam and Michael McNair"

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.
