ABOUT OUR COUNCIL

St. Mary's Council #3790 was instituted on February 21, 1954.  Meetings were held in the basement of
St. Mary's School.  Ground for the current K of C Hall was broken on September 13, 1957, with a
dedication banquet held on January 26, 1958.  Council #3790 has been involved in all phases of
activities promoted by the Knights of Columbus on all levels.  Fund-raising activities include the annual
Tootsie Roll Drive for the mentally handicapped, Lenten fish fries that benefit various charities and
causes, and an annual washer tournament to benefit Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital in St. Louis.  
We take great pride in our service to the church, school, youth and community.
