A warm greeting to our fifty-eight new members who were initiated on June 13, 2009. We encourage your participation in our various committees and activities. Attending our montly meetings is an opportunity to participate in the decison making process of our Lodge. Come often to the Lodge and meet other members who are proud to be members of The Greater Wildwoods Elks Lodge 1896.
Our normal meeting schedule is the 2nd & 4th Thursdays. All our meetings are held at our proudly maintained lodge at 109 West 1st Avenue in North Wildwood New Jersey. We are proud that we actively participate and support all Grand Lodge programs and fund raisers at the level we do, we really do try harder.
We are located in the Anglesea District of historic "Cape May County" in Southern New Jersey where we find ourselves growing in year round population. This not only adds to our lodge numbers but helps us to support the Grand Lodge programs at our level. We also find the lodge called upon to provide additional programs and fun events for all of our members to become a part of, and well they do. Check out our Activities Calendar page to find activities that not only you, but hopefully your spouse, might want to become a part of, then just come on in and join us.
Our Lounge is open daily and offers all an opportunity to meet and talk to some really great people.
We strive to update this site bi-weekly with input from our committee chairmembers. If you feel you have additional input please e-mail us, we welcome all constructive input.
Check our Activities Calendar for upcoming events.
