NORWOOD, N.J.—The 140 members of the Norwood Knights of Columbus, Immaculate Conception Council, invite you to attend its 24th Annual Legendary Lenten Fish Fry on Friday, Feb. 28, beginning at 6 p.m. in the cafeteria of Sacred Heart Church on Park Street in Haworth.
The menu includes beer-battered fried fresh cod, French fries, mac and cheese, salads, desserts, beer, wine, coffee and tea.
The price for this year is $15 for adults, $5 for children. For two adults with more than two children, the price is capped at $40. The admission price for seniors 65 and over remains at $13.50 with advance ticket purchase.
Proceeds of this event are dedicated to the support of local Catholic parishes and families, community events, and to support people pursuing Catholic religious vocations. The Immaculate Conception Council is part of the Worldwide Knights of Columbus, a 137-year-old worldwide Catholic fraternal organization with over 2 million members who donated over $170 million and 75 million volunteer hours to charity in 2018.
In 2019, the local council donated food cards to local parishes as part of the K. of C. “Food for Families” program, ran fund raising drives to support disabled citizens and Alzheimer’s victims, and provided financial support to Catholic seminarians in the area.
Immaculate Conception Council also honors our police, fire and EMS men and women at its Shield Awards dinner.
They hold a popular pasta dinner in May, and celebrate “Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day” in September, with all proceeds of fundraisers benefiting the charitable programs of the Knights on a local, state and national level. That includes support for pregnancy crisis centers through the annual pro-life “Baby Bottle Boomerang” drive, programs to help persecuted Christians around the world, and disaster relief.
Since 1985, Immaculate Conception Knights of Columbus Council No. 9021 has served the parishes of St. Pius X, Old Tappan, Immaculate Conception, Norwood, St. Anthony, Northvale, and Sacred Heart, Haworth.
Membership in the Knights is encouraged to Catholic men over the age of 18. Extensive membership materials can be found at kofc.org.
