Wappingers Knights of Columbus was chartered in 1912.  Its a council full of history.  Many great men have come through our doors and helped out our Church, (St. Mary's of Wappingers Falls), our village and our community, and many worthwhile charities over the years. 

The Wappingers Ladies Auxiliary, gives the ladies of our council a spotlight to glow in!  They have always been supportive and assisted in the programs council 1646 has been involved with.  But now they have a means to socialize, organize, and help needs that are important to the auxiliary.

Please look around our web site, look at our monthly newsletter and Upcoming Events.  You'll see that the strong history gives our new members a sense of duty.  We have many activities going on at all times.  Most are open to the public.  There is something for everyone.  We are always looking for new members to join our ranks as well.  You'll find information within this site to enable you to join.
