STOKES HALL

at FOP Lodge #9

NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC 

The Lodge Hall is ONLY available for member use 

Stokes Hall is Capital City's rental and meeting facility. Stokes Hall, previously named Copper Lodge Hall, was renamed on March 14, 2024 as a dedication to President Emeritus Dewey R. Stokes. Dewey has had a long and illustrious career with the F.O.P including bringing collective bargaining to Columbus, and serving as National F.O.P President.
The organization would not be what it is today if not for Dewey Stokes. 

Stokes Hall is perfect for receptions, parties, or seated dinners up to 200 guests.  The attached cocktail area is great for pre-reception cocktail hours or creating a club/dancing space separate from your main dining room. Just off the Bar, our covered patio with included patio furniture and built in stone bar, makes a wonderful outdoor escape for your guests to enjoy.
