Installation of Officers for 2019/20









On Thursday, June 27th, the Council and the Assembly held a joint Installation for Officers who will serve the 2019-20 fraternal year.  The installation was also combined with Council and Assembly yearly awards presentations and Columbus HOPE presentations.  All Council and Assembly members were invited with their guests and/or family along with the Columbiettes and their guest and the Columbus HOPE recipients and their guests.  In all, about 85 people attended the event.   Brother Knight Caesar Moona prepared a delicious dinner of pork loin, mashed potatoes, salad, and home made bread pudding for dessert.  Thank you Caesar, and thanks to the Columbiettes for making the   Walsh Palmetto room look like a palace.  Organizations receiving checks from Columbus HOPE were:

  • Thumbs Up
  • Abel Foundation
  • Cinderella Fella Ball
  • Love of Therapeutic Riding
  • Programs for Exceptional People (PEP)
A huge thanks to Brother Knight Reulito Gonzalez (Gonz) for organizing and leading a very successful, award winning Columbus HOPE campaign again this year, raising $7, 779.78 - way to go Gonz!!
