Exemplification of Fourth Degree: On September 28, 2019 four members of our council participated in the exemplification of fourth degree, Hennepin Province, Ohio District Two. Congratulations to the new Sir Knights: Jarad Jacon-Duffy, Joseph K. Nwankpa, George R. Pitstick and Eric Vossler.

Car Show.  This was our most successful car show to date, with over 136 cars registered—a 75% increase over 2017!   Additions in 2018 included the presence of Pam Harsacky’s custom jewelry booth that was a huge hit, the Graeter’s Ice Cream truck, display vehicles from Montgomery Lincoln and Lebanon Ford, and new food items including popcorn, French fries, and hamburgers. The quality of show cars was significantly improved with exotic cars like the 2010 Ferrari California, the 1989 Rolls Royce once owned by Neil Diamond and the 1967 Amphibian car which were all huge hits. Cars ranged from Model T’s to brand new Roush Mustangs and Z06 Corvettes! 

Fish Fry Fund Raiser. The fish fry was a great success.  We were able to server hundreds of families and also sell many of our Cash Bonanza tickets.  A special thank you to Sir Knight Bill Bross who sold the most Bonanza tickets, directly benefiting our council with cash proceeds!

Turkey Fry.  In November, Brother Knight Mark Ramirez, volunteered at the St. Susanna Turkey Fry.  This is an annual event to cook Thanksgiving turkeys for November’s Turkey Dinner Ministry to feed Mason’s struggling families. Way to go Mark!  Thank you for your service and representing the Knights.

Wine Tasting Fund Raiser.  Nothing brings people together like wine. On November 15, the St. Susanna Knights of Columbus proved that raising money for worthy causes like St. Joseph’s Orphanage and St. Susanna Outreach Ministries can be a very enjoyable, entertaining, and rewarding experience.   It is only the second wine tasting event held by the Knights, and we already doubled attendance over the first event as people brought more friends and word has begun to spread about this fun evening!  We were also blessed to have Father Bishop join in our fellowship.
