November 2024
Brothers,
October has been a busy month at your Council.
We had a bevy of activities and events starting Oktoberfest in the early part of the month. Roses For Life masses at St Als and St Veronica's with more than $1800 raised, a superior effort. Thanks to everyone who participated.
Also Comedy/pasta night last Saturday was fun,(thanks to Joe Dorsey for pushing/strong-arming ticket sales and organizing the event.)
The Past Grand Knight, Past Columbian Club President, and Past Ladies Auxiliary President dinner was a good time with good food honoring our past leaders. A good time was had by all.
We also had the Trunk or Treat Event on Sunday the 27th, The last blood drive of the year on Monday the 28th.
November will be another busy month at your council:
The Deceased Members Mass and Breakfast at St Als coming up on Saturday the 2nd. This mass will honor those who have passed. A delicious breakfast will be served in the cafeteria by our Brothers.
