Fish Fry is back! Our next Fish Fry is on March 10th.

Our Knights of Columbus Council 15052 is sponsoring three (3) fish fry dinner events this Lent in Beaven Hall. We hope you will join us on the following Fridays of Lent: February 24th, March 10th, and March 31st, from 5-8 p.m.

All you can eat cod fish dinner comes with fries, coleslaw, mac n cheese, along with a drink and dessert.

$15 for adults and $5 for children.

The Knights of Columbus are asking parish and school families to help contribute to keeping the cost of the event down with donations of soda pop, juice boxes, water, condiments, and desserts. Adult volunteers are also sought to make the event a success.
