History

The Fort Knox Spouses and Community Club (FKSCC) was founded as The Women's Club of the U.S. Army Armor Center Officer's Open Mess on October 9, 1950 under the leadership of Mrs. Thomas L. Harrold, Honorary President and Mrs. Edward M. Fickett, President. At the inception, the club’s purpose was promotion of companionship among its members, encouraging participation in Fort Knox activities, and encouraging active participation in the International Group and in the Special Interest Groups of the Club. During the 1950s, Special Interest Groups included Party Bridge, Ballet, Interior Decorating, Beauty and Charm, Shoe Covering, Rifle and Pistol, French, Dog Obedience, Knitting, and Ballroom Dancing. Membership was open to women members of the Fort Knox Officers' Mess (wives, mothers, sisters and adult daughters of members of the Fort Knox Officers' Mess). Membership also included the wives of all foreign officers stationed at Fort Knox.

The name of the FKSCC has changed over the years. We were also known as the Officers’ Wives Club and then the Officers’ and Civilians’ Spouses Club until becoming the Fort Knox Spouses and Community Club in 2007 when membership was opened to those outside the Fort Knox military community. Despite the name changes, the purpose of the club has remained the same - camaraderie among members and supporting the community.
