Meetings & Socials

he Knights of Columbus, in order to maintain a fraternity, have to be together. Aside from special activities, we gather for a monthly business meeting and for a monthly dinner social.

BUSINESS MEETINGS

Business meetings are typically held the second Wednesday of every month at the Star of the Sea Parish Hall in Santa Cruz. They begin at 7:30 p.m. sharp and usually run for about 90 minutes (sometimes two hours), followed by munchies, if you want to hang out. You have to be a card-carrying member of the Knights or an invited guest to attend the meetings.

DINNER SOCIALS

Prior to the 2020 Pandemic, we sponsored a dinner social every month. Our council dinners are open to the public, usually held the fourth Wednesday of every month at the Star of the Sea Parish Hall. Priests and widows of deceased members eat at no charge. Socials are announced in church bulletins, via email, in council bulletins. Socials carry various themes: Italian, Filipino, Mexican, etc. Sometimes the dinners benefit specific charities. Social details may be confirmed in the bulletin found in the menu at the left.

As an example, see our 2014-2015 Socials Schedule.
