GREENSBORO — On a chilly Saturday morning, Nov. 11, St. Pius X Knights of Columbus Council 11101 arrived at the Level Crossing Apartment complex to donate 145 children’s winter coats in a variety of colors and sizes.
The committee, chaired by Knight Dan Allen, annually purchases the coats from Supreme Knights of Columbus with funds donated to the council. Shortly after the Knights’ arrival, they were swarmed by the youngsters and were quickly “sold out.” Pictured are St. Pius X Knights aided by Knights of St. Mary’s Council 8684 and Our Lady of Grace Council 939 and volunteers.
