Grand Knight Herman Rodriques says the Knights have played a significant role in improving the quality of life for residents.
"One time, I'm told, in the early 1970's, the old Knight of Columbus hall across the arena was the place to be if you want to get married," says Rodriques. "The Knights did raise a lot of funds through its bingos and weddings. There was a very substantial contribution to the community."
A dinner Saturday night and a mass Sunday highlight festivities.
