New Hyde Park Council 2852 was founded in 1942 through the efforts of fifty-eight male residents of the New Hyde Park area who felt that they wanted to get involved in religion, in charity, in a united organization, and in each other. The answer to their needs was, of course, The Knights of Columbus. Other communities had charters, why not New Hyde
Park? Requirements, as set forth by Supreme, were met by eager men who knew what they wanted. On February 15, 1942 New Hyde Park Council became a reality. The framed charter, bearing fifty-eight names, proudly decorates the business office wall of our Council home today. The New Hyde Park Council 2852 works closely with
the Holy Spirit and Notre Dame Parishes in New Hyde Park, providing funds for various projects, participating in fundraisers and council members being active participants in the parish. The council also works closely with the New Hyde Park community area providing funds where needed, such as local charities and little league, and council member participation in community affairs such as fundraisers, parades and street fairs.

Tabs for Kids
If you save the tabs from aluminum cans, donate them to our council for a good cause. Thanks to the Bingo workers who gather the tabs from a "Night of Bingo", Sally "The Mixologist" from the Fraternal Order of Eagles based in Elmont, Tom Fitzgerald from our Council and Kenny Gallo from St. Anne's Council #2429 based in Glen Oaks, there is always a steady supply of tabs to be donated. These tabs now help Stony Brook University Hospital send kids to Summer Camp in the Catskills. These are not just ordinary kids but children who suffer from "end stage kidney disease". The summer camp gives these kids a chance to be "kids" and enjoy life a little, away from a hospital atmosphere.
