In the spring of 1900, Aberdeen witnessed the birth of Elks Lodge No. 593. Led by Walter R. MacFarlane, a group of prominent citizens brought the Elks lodge to life. With Tacoma’s Elks by their side, they inaugurated the lodge amidst grand celebrations and camaraderie. Led by stalwart officers and fueled by the spirit of unity, No. 593 embarked on its journey, leaving an indelible mark on Aberdeen’s history.
