WHITTIER, Calif. — On Monday, September 21, 2026, Whittier Elks Lodge No. 1258 will pause to celebrate one of its own. Brother Neal Martin turns 100 years old — a milestone few attain, and one this Lodge is proud to mark with gratitude, together with his wife, Connie Martin. Brother Martin is a 56-year member of Whittier Lodge, a United States Navy veteran, and a Past Association Vice President of the California-Hawaii Elks Association.
Whittier Elks Lodge No. 1258 is proud to announce that Sister Danielle Spaziano has been selected as the recipient of the California-Hawaii Elks Association (CHEA) President’s Golden Apple Award for the South Central District.
Attached is our August 2026 Elkcast. I encourage every member to take a few quiet moments to read it carefully. Within its pages you will find not merely a calendar of events, but a living reflection of who we are and what we continue to build together—fellowship, service, and the quiet strength that comes from standing beside one another.
On Thursday, July 16, 2026, the newly formed Whittier Elks Lodge #1258 Cigar Club held its inaugural meeting, marking an exciting new chapter for members who enjoy fine cigars, great conversation, and the spirit of brotherhood that defines our lodge.
Whittier Elks Lodge #1258 pause and take a look back over a century of Charity, Justice, Brotherly Love and Fidelity.
