The entire Knights of Columbus Sancta Familia Council would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who took the time to come out and celebrate this year's Mid-Summer Classic BBQ! Your presence truly made the event a remarkable occasion, filled with joy, laughter, and camaraderie.

It genuinely was a fantastic evening spent with our families and friends, where we were able to reconnect and strengthen our bonds within the community. The atmosphere was vibrant, with the sounds of cheerful conversations and the aroma of delicious food filling the air. As we gathered together, it became clear just how important these moments are for fostering the spirit of unity and friendship that defines our Council.

A special thank you goes out to Brother John Kralle and his wife for leading the charge for the BBQ, along with my other brothers and sisters who contributed their time and effort to make this event a success. John's dedication and organizational skills were evident as he coordinated everything seamlessly, ensuring that all aspects of the BBQ were taken care of. This event was truly a testament to the spirit of fraternity and community that we hold dear, highlighting the importance of working together to create memorable experiences for all.

The burgers and hot dogs were absolutely spot on, cooked to perfection and enjoyed by all. We also want to extend our appreciation to everyone who brought side dishes and desserts; the variety and flavors were simply delicious and added to the festive atmosphere of the evening. It was wonderful to see so many different culinary creations, showcasing the diverse talents of our community members. Sharing food is a time-honored tradition that brings us closer together, and this BBQ was no exception.

Additionally, we would like to extend our gratitude to Worthy District Deputy Jim Francesconi for his unwavering support and leadership. His presence added a special touch to our gathering, and we are thankful for his dedication to our Council. During the event, he graciously presented three awards recognizing the achievements of Council 11498, which served as a reminder of the hard work and commitment of our members. These awards not only celebrate individual accomplishments but also reflect the collective efforts of our entire Council in serving our community and living out the values we cherish.
