Rocky Ford, CO 1147

Rocky Ford, CO Lodge No. 1147

Located in the heart of Colorado’s melon growing region, the Rocky Ford Elks Lodge #1147 is a vibrant part of the community.  The City of Rocky Ford grew up around farming and ranching.  The Arkansas River gives life to the community.

The Rocky Ford BPO Elks Lodge #1147 was formed in 1909.  In 1913 the Lodge broke ground on the building which is still the current home of the Rocky Ford Elks.  In 2009 the Membership celebrated its 100th birthday and in 2013 we buried a time capsule to be opened by the Members in 2113.

Rocky Ford Elk Members have over the past 12 years raised and donated over $85,000 for the following programs:  local food banks in Fowler, Manzanola, and Rocky Ford.  The Lodge funds Local Lodge Scholarships for our youth on a yearly basis.

The Lodge works with the Rocky Ford Lions Club, the Rocky Ford Future Farmers of America, and the Rocky Ford Future Business Leaders of America.  We also support all Rocky Ford High School Athletics.

We are the Rocky Ford Elks Lodge.  Strong, Vibrant, Supporting the Community.

Meetings are held at 7:30 every 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month. July, August, and December only one meeting on the second Tuesday of the month. 

Meeting Directions: 301 N 9th Street Rocky Ford CO
