About Us

A banner celebrating Adam outside the Elks Lodge.

Some lodges hand you a name tag and point you to a folding chair. Elks Lodge #245 in Muncie does something different. Out-of-town Elk members show up as strangers and leave feeling like regulars. That kind of hospitality is not an accident, it is baked into everything this lodge does, from the way staff greets you at the door to the way fellow members pull up a stool and start a conversation.

The golf course here is genuinely well-maintained, the kind of shape that makes you think someone actually cares about the game. And when you come off the 18th hole, the kitchen is ready. The Thai Chili wings Daytona style have earned a reputation that extends well beyond the lodge walls, multiple visitors call them the best wings in Delaware County, and that claim holds up. The Bloody Mary here is no afterthought either, built the way a proper Bloody Mary deserves to be.

Located at 909 N 500 W Rd, just outside central Muncie, Lodge #245 carries the national Elks mission of charity, justice, brotherly love, and fidelity, but it expresses that mission in a way that is distinctly Indiana. Real people, real food, real community.

What We Offer

The golf course at Lodge #245 is the centerpiece for many members, offering well-kept fairways and greens that reward both the casual weekend player and the serious golfer. Staff keeps the course in excellent condition season after season, and the management team is consistently praised for being approachable and genuinely helpful.

Beyond the course, the lodge's kitchen punches well above its weight. The Thai Chili wings are the undisputed signature, but the bar program earns just as much loyalty. A handcrafted Bloody Mary built with care is the kind of drink that turns a post-round stop into a two-hour visit.

For Elk members traveling through Indiana, the lodge extends full reciprocal hospitality, walk in, introduce yourself, and you are immediately part of the family. Community events, charitable programs, and member gatherings fill the calendar year-round, keeping Lodge #245 active and connected to the broader Muncie, Indiana community it has served for generations.

"The course was in great shape. The staff is freaking awesome! The Thai Chili wings Daytona style are some of the best wings I have ever had! Holy cow they were spot on! Best wings in Delaware county by far and honestly I'd put them up against Ale Emporium or Chatam Tap! What makes them even better was the price! They make this lodge totally affordable! Love this place."

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.

“To our absent members.” — the Eleven O’Clock Toast
