Who We Are and What We Do
K of C St. Thomas More Council 11490 K of C

St. Thomas More Council #11490 of the Knights of Columbus started forming in the spring of 1994 and by the fall of 1994 we had obtained the thirty members necessary to request a charter from the Supreme Council.  On January 9, 1995 our Council was officially chartered.  Our first Grand Knight was John W. Gregory, Jr.

Our meetings are held on the first and third Wednesdays of each month at 7:30PM in the St. Thomas More Rectory Meeting Room.  All Knights in good standing are invited to attend.

Our Council participates in many Local, State and Supreme programs.  We conduct yearly; a Vocations Poster Contest with our CCD Students, a Youth Basketball Free Throw contest, a Tootie Roll Drive for Retarded Citizens, and a Roller Skating Party for the Parish. We also help with many Parish functions, including the Parish Picnic, Parish Country Tag Sale, and finally playing Santa Claus and all his helpers at the Parish Christmas Bazaar. We also support the State's Special Olympics and Right to Life Programs.

We hold a Community Bake Sale, a Parish Spaghetti Dinner, a Parish Spring Dinner-Dance, and a Parish Lenten Dinner. These and other activities help us raise money to support Knights of Columbus programs at the Supreme, State and Local level.
