Elks Saint Louis Lodge #9 is located in the Saint Louis Missouri suburb of Creve Coeur ( 12481 Ladue Road, Saint Louis, MO 63141 ) and is one of eight lodges in District 4780 which consists 1. Affton # 2635, Crestwood # 2503, Ellisville # 2664, Florissant # 2316, Manchester # 2058, St. Charles # 690, Saint Louis # 9, and Troy # 2805.
Elks Lodges bring so much more to their communities than just a building, golf course or pool. They are places where neighbors come together, families share meals, and children grow up.
Elks invest in their communities through programs that help children grow up healthy and drug-free, by undertaking projects that address unmet need, and by honoring the service and sacrifice of our veterans.
