Council #1264 in Lebanon, KY heled a 24-hour food drive on November 18th.
That’s A Wrap!!!!! The K of C 24 Hour Food Drive is Over & the Items have been Delivered. We Collected 3525 Food Items & $330 for the Community Service Center of Lebanon. There are far too many people who helped and donated to Thank You all individually, but if you participated in any way I would like to Thank You from the bottom of my heart. Special Thanks to Jeremy Bowman & Tom Sparks for Braving the Weather with Me. When Jeremy Bowman talked to me about his idea I never in my wildest dreams would have thought we could have done what we did, it’s pretty incredible.
Fr. Kehoe Council #1764 in Ludlow hosted an NFL watching social for 12-14 handicapped Veterans and four staff members from the Veterans Administration Hospital in Cincinnati on Sunday, November 5. The Veterans always take pleasure on getting out on a field trip to the Council for an afternoon of fun watching football, eating delicious food, enjoying refreshments and on this day sitting outside in unusual 70-degree weather watching boats go up and down the Ohio River.
On October 15th the Newman Council joined up with the McKune Council and had our annual Wednesday’s Child Bike Ride to raise money to buy Christmas presents for the children in their program.
Unfortunately, the weather wouldn’t cooperate and we had a rail out. Never the less the bikers that showed up still donated some money and the day wasn’t a total loss. We just won’t be able to buy as many presents. The bikers still got their blessing.
