Sorry for the delay...finally here is the
list of winners for this year's fundraiser (Open
Attachment) held last Sunday, April 26th.
Congratulations to all
the winners, if you have not received your prize, I will be touch
soon or it will be put in the mail (the small prizes) this week.
The raffle was extremely successful (OVER
1000 tickets sold), although the
brunch & Mass turnout was not as good as it should be, as there was a 30%
dropoff in attendance.
Thank you for your continued support of the Hell's Kitchen
Knights!
Sincerely,
Gerard Hayde

New glass was put in our storefront window and door, and the new window is adorned with Christmas lights and an illuminated American flag. Along with the external improvements, some much needed house cleaning and reorganizing was done inside the council which has created more space for members and guests. Check out a few new pictures of the council by clicking on any of the photos below.

DeSoto Council was founded on March 20, 1898. It is named after the famous
Spanish explorer, Fernando DeSoto, who explored much of
Southern North
America (the Mississippi River area in 1541). Many of the early councils
of
the Knights of Columbus were named after explorers.
DeSoto Council #327 works closely with Sacred Heart Parish and the
community
of Hell's Kitchen, providing support to local senior citizens, the youth
of
the community with our dedication to the Joseph Horvath Memorial
Scholarship
Fund, and many other neighborhood causes.
