Convention Hotel Deadline Extended Until April 11

Brothers, Bill Mores has worked with the hotel to extend our registration deadline until April 11. We still have rooms to fill and if we don't fill them, then the State has to either pay for the rooms or pay a penalty. Please help us be good stewards by booking a room NOW. Even if you are in the Birmingham or surrounding area, please spend at least one night in the hotel. Click here to book your room now. I look forward to seeing you at the convention. Jason

Council 12150 responds after tornado in Wetumpka

On January 19th, an EF2 tornado hit the city of Wetumpka. The Church of the Holy Spirit Council 12150 immediately started coordinating with local and county Emergency Medical Services as to what needs they could provide for this disaster. The EMS determined there was a need to have onsite feeding of first responders. Brother Knights from Council 12150 responded within hours. During the time onsite, the team fed 90 first responders. The team consisted of Mark Bruton, Perry Burden, Michael Mest and Shane McKenny. State Deputy commended the men and the council saying, “These men embody our dedication to charity. We Knights of Columbus always stand ready to help wherever, whenever we are able. It is an honor to serve those who serve others in our community.”
