Installation of Officers

On July 24th, Council Officers for the 2014/15 fraternal year, were installed by our District Deputy, Richard Rochelle, and district Warden, Larry Czekay.  Thanks to the Columbiettes for providing some delectable nourishment.  After the meeting, Brother Gonz presented a framed picture of our Pro-Life Billboard Sign on Hwy 46, which is still up after two years - God is Good!

Easter Egg Hunt



This year the Easter Egg Hunt was held at St. Peter's soccer field with around 50 children and 30 adults participating.  Thanks to all the brother Knights who assisted in hiding the eggs and preparing hot dogs and burgers, and to our sister Columbiettes for their financial support of the event.   Everyone had a grand time.   For more pictures, follow this link

Mid Term News

We're half way through the 2013/14 fraternal year with much accomplished and much more to do.  The big news for the next few months is the upcoming Columbus Club golf tournament.  With bingo on life support due to lack of players, we are holding a golf tournament on 2 May at the Sanctuary Golf Club on Cat Island to raise money.  We need everyone in the council/club to bring in golfers and sponsors if we are going to keep the lights on at our Council home.  The golf committee meets every Tuesday at the hall at 7 pm. Please consider helping out in whatever capacity you can.

We have also launched a new website: www.beaufortkofc.org to help with registration and information about the tournament.  The site also has a link on the home page to our Facebook page. 

Finally, here are a few upcoming local events:
  • 2 Feb - Scout Sunday, 10 am Mass @ St Peter's
  • 23 Feb - Annual Oyster Roast to support Franciscan Center @ Council Hall
  • 12 Apr - Easter Egg Hunt @ Franciscan Center
