Archbishop Elder Council 1195

On Thursday, March 5, worthy brothers GK Bob Stucker, John Mullan, Al Stevenson, and Jonathan Ring assisted at the annual Bobbie Fairfax Free Throw Contest.

Bobbie Fairfax is a school for individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities. The Free Throw Contest was originally sponsored by Bishop Fenwick Council back in the late 1980’s. After a hiatus, the event resurfaced about four years ago. Four councils currently participate in funding and manning the event: St Michael, Abp. Elder, Bishop Fenwick, and St. John. Funding includes t-shirts, medals, plaques, and apple sauce for the participants.

It was a lot of fun for all involved.

On Thursday March 5, Fr. Rob Jack spoke with Ohio State Advocate Mike Felerski and Western Ohio General Agent Jason Staas. You can listen here (the interview begins about the 37 minute mark):

The Knights of Columbus: An Illustrated History is the perfect introduction.”
