We know these funds will be put to good use by a vital organization in our community. Kudos to all the members from the Knights of Columbus.

On Friday we happily attended the BGC Renfrew County Club Day. What a great event! That evening, we presented a donation for $1000 from the Knights of Columbus. It is a great pleasure to work so closely with two great organizations. The City of Pembroke Pembroke Professional Fire Fighters Association Local 488
