St. Clement Knights of Columbus are going fishing!
Knights of Columbus Council 10257 of St. Clement Parish in Boonville is holding a Special Needs Fishing Tournament the morning of May 21. “This will cost you nothing but transportation to and from the lake,” writes Knight Dennis McVey. “Food, attendance prizes, fishing gear and beverages will be provided for participants and those who escort them.” The plan is for check-in to begin at 8 a.m. CDT, with fishing starting at 8:30 a.m. CDT. “We envision conducting our awards luncheon on-site at 11 a.m. to avoid heat,” McVey added.
