Pancake Breakfast
Our most recent pancake breakfast was held Sunday, April 18th after the 8:00 and 10:00 masses. The menu included pancakes, sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy, fruit cocktail and refreshments. A special thank-you to Ken Gregory for chairing this event and to all the Brother Knights who got early, got the food cooking, and helped clean the kitchen afterwards. Once again, St. Mary's Youth Group helped with the set up, serving, and clean up. We appreciate the help very much; so thank-you.

Lenten Fish Fry dinners
Our council's "All you can eat" fish fry dinners were a huge success this year. We even ran out of food twice this year. That was a first for us. We estimated we served approximately 1,150 dinners or on average about 200 meals per Serving. Now that is a lot of fish. The menu included baked and fried fish, french fries, baked potatoe, cole slaw, mac-n-cheese and refreshments. Dinners were served from 5:00pm - 8:00pm. Carry outs were available. A special thanks for all the patrons and all those who helped, especially to Brother's Bob and Doug for co-chairing this event. As like last year, St. Mary's Youth Group helped our council with serving the food, refreshments and clean up. Their help was deeply appreciated. They also were selling fine desserts such as homemade pies, cakes, cookies and coffee cakes. The proceeds from their dessert sales will be going towards this year's mission trip to Appalachia.
