Memorial Day Parade
We’re looking for Meagher Assembly volunteers to march in the Bloomington Memorial Day Parade on Monday, May 28th, 2012. We will assemble at Ziegler’s near 94th Street and Bryant Avenue again. Assemble time is at 8:30 a.m. and the Parade begins at 9:00 a.m. The Parade goes south on Lyndale Avenue to the Bloomington Cemetery (Approximately 103rd Street). We will wear full Regalia. We need volunteers to carry the U.S. Flag and the Meagher Assembly Banner. Larry Branscomb was kind enough to volunteer his red Jeep for the Parade again—thank you, Larry.
We will be looking for ways of transportation back to Ziegler’s after the program at the Bloomington Cemetery—Family members or ? It is great to have transportation for the marchers back to their cars—Thank you.
History was made at the hall
You might be asking yourself how was history made. Well back on February 3rd, we hosted the first ever Christian Movie Night at the KOFC Hall. At this event we had about 94 attendees that ranged in age from young adults to senior citizens. About half of the attendees were not members of our council. We are excited to let you know that on May 18th, 2012 we will be hosting the next installment in our series of movies. Continue reading

On May 8th the Marian Council will host its 48th annual Mothers Day Mass and Breakfast in the Grand Hall with your fellow Knights as hosts. Mass will begin at 10 AM with a breakfast buffet to follow immediately afterwards. The 4th Degree Mass committee and Honor Guard will be in attendance.
The menu this year will consist of your choices of egg dish, ham, hash browns, fruit, sweet rolls, orange juice, milk, and coffee. All adults will be offered a complementary glass of champagne and all mothers will receive a beautiful corsage as they arrive. The price for all this is $9.00 per person with reservations paid in advance or $10.00 at the door. Children 6 years of age and under will be admitted free. In order to have the proper amount of food on hand, we ask that you have your paid reservations at the hall by May 5th.
This will be a great opportunity to show your wife, mother, or grandmother how much you love and appreciate what they do all the other days of the year. See you there
