April Blood Drive

District Deputy Mark Halper - double red blood cell donation

Last Sunday our council hosted its latest blood drive. Thank you to all the Knights, friends, and family who donated blood and time to the event. It was nice to see some Knights bring their children to donate. You must be 17 to donate blood, or 16 with parental consent.

Special thanks to Fire Bar for giving a discount card to everyone who donated. You get to "Pick a pint" for just $1. What a deal!

Don't forget, each time you donate, you have a chance to win a door prize, and an additional chance to win the football signed by 7 of the Super Bowl Champion '85 Bears.

The next blood drive will be Sunday, June 16.

Sergio joined our council in the April 1st Degree event. He is the son-in-law of Kevin Wright, one of our own. It was nice to get to know Sergio a little after the ceremony. He is eager to get involved with our council.

Three other candidates from other councils also participated and became Knights in the First Degree.

Fun at the Bowl-a-Thon

On March 3, 2013, the council held the Joseph Nava Bowl-a-Thon. The program took some years off, and is now back in the mix. This family outing included pizza, prizes, and of course, bowling. Proceeds go to the Joseph Nava scholarship fund, and will continue on an annual basis. Joe was a charter member of the council.

Christmas Aftermath: Cleaning up the McGivney Building

After a lot of activity with the Large Nativity Sets and the Tree Lot, the McGivney building is looking good. We were able to organize things and clean out some of the junk from a very busy Christmas season. Thanks to everyone who helped break down the Tree Lot and bring in all the large nativity sets after Christmas. Also, thanks to everyone who helped Mark Ostrowski take down all the lights around the church and the Friary.
