The St. Louis Chapter is proud to celebrate its 62st anniversary. Our chapter was chartered on June 24, 1946. It was the fifteenth chapter to receive its charter. The chapter began with 12 charter members and has expanded to over 700 members representing 125 companies and organizations. The chapter's main focus through its 60-plus years of existence has been the interaction and education of its members.
