These pictures are of one of 7 distribution locations of new winter coats given to needy children this fall by Council 12017. A total of 252 coats were provided to families from Magnolia to Fair Bluff in North Carolina.

These stalwart brother knights braved the near-torrential downpour to set a record for unloading the semi which was laden with trees fresh from the mountains of North Carolina. Particular thanks to the newly-minted knights that came out to pitch in.
The 2022-2023 Football Pool is in the eighth year of play in our council. The funds raised support Life programs and general council initiatives.
We want to highlight the winners so that they don't go unrecognized. The pool was open to anyone so the winners won't only be knights. What you'll see are the same names turning up. The reason is simple - they bought more numbers.
