History of St. Martha's Knights of Columbus

ST MARTHA’S COUNCIL 9280 – SOME HISTORY

CHARTER NIGHT WAS CELEBRATED NOV 18, 1986 BY DISTRICT DEPUTY TONY GROTEN, AND STATE DEPUTY KEN BEAUCHAMP. 55 MEMBERS WERE SWORN IN. CLARENCE WATSON WAS INSTALLED AS CHARTER GRAND KNIGHT. MEETINGS WERE ORIGINALLY HELD IN COUNCIL 1490’S HALL, BUT WHEN OUR PARISH COMMUNITY MOVED TO THE CHILDREN OF ST MARTHA SCHOOL, OUR MEETINGS WERE HELD THERE.

OUR KNIGHTS WERE VERY INVOLVED IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE CHURCH CONSTRUCTION AND GUARANTEED A DONATION OF $80,000 BY 1995. THAT YEAR THE K OF C HALL WAS BLESSED IN THE NAME OF GORDON SWANSON, GRAND KNIGHT FROM 1993 TO 1994.

OUR COUNCIL CONTINUES TO BE AN ACTIVE AND INTEGRAL PART OF THE LIFE OF THE PARISH.
