Annual Children’s Christmas Party

On December 7th, our Council held the Annual Children’s Christmas Party for the young and young at heart at the Council Home. Approximately 50 children were treated to Pizza, Hot Dogs, Drinks, A Christmas Story from Father Finn, Magician Pat Ward and Santa Claus arriving by Fire Truck. This year’s Co-Chairs were Bill and Karen Gaffney. Thanks to everyone for their continued assistance and generosity. Below are a few pictures of the day.

Welcome to Pittston Knight Life Online

As we begin a new year in 2009, I wanted to give you a place to find more of the news and information that you depend on from the Pittston Knights of Columbus. This news will be in addition to our current newsletter and website structure. Unfortunately, due to publishing deadlines and the quarterly publishing format, plus space constraints, there may be some meetings or other important event dates that may not be available at the time of publication. As a result, I wanted to give our members an additional online resource to get Council information in REAL TIME. I hope that you find this to be another helpful tool in finding out what is going on within our Council. Feel free to check in from time to time for the latest happenings and other news from your President John F. Kennedy Council.
