A separate post will go up on the BLOG from the Youth Director. Brother Knights should arrive at 4 PM to help getting everything organized and begin cooking hot dogs and hamburgers. Pass the word along to parents and friends. All Catholic Youth are encouraged to attend for an evening of fun. The 8 Reasons to attend are listed below:

Here's just 8 reasons why you and they might want to come:




1 - It's totally Free, and something to do on a great Spring Evening

2 - We're serving others by collecting food for Catholic Charities Food Bank

3 - There will be free burgers cooked by Knights of Columbus councils...and they know how to grill!  Free Dinner...can't beat it.

4 - There will be outdoor games on the field, plenty of activity, and plenty of space and time to hang out with friends or meet new ones.

5 - There will be live music...outdoor concerts are fun!

6 - Chris Padgett will be there.  He's a Catholic Speaker/Musician recognized all over the country for being able to inspire people of all ages in their faith while simultaneously causing you to laugh at his utter goofiness and fall in love with his music.

7 - We're going to Mass together, hopefully with enough young people that the chapel bursts at the seams.  It's such a great experience of Mass when it's full of folks willing to actually sing, praise, and worship God in a youthful way.

8 - Events like this being successful have the potential to really snowball and affect the entire Catholic Community in a fantastic way.  Want to not be bored with being Catholic?  The more often we can get youth together to attend, plan, and add spirit to events for young people...the more exciting our entire Diocese will be.  Let the Catholic Revolution begin!
