Council 1345
About Our Council
St.
John's Council #1345 was incorporated on June 28, 1908 and serves St. John's and
St. Mary's Catholic Churches. We are a fraternal and charitable
organization that provides funding and manpower for charitable activities
globally, nationally and throughout our local area.
Members are invited to Council meetings
which occur on 1st and 3rd Monday of each month. These
meeting afford members the opportunity to find out what is going on in the
Council, and the chance to get to know members. The dress code is casual.
The
annual dues for membership is $25.00. Individuals apply to become a new
member are asked to pay their annual dues plus a one-time fee of $15.00 for the
degrees. Please see the Membership page for
additional information.
