Business meetings are held twice a month, the 1st and 3rd Monday, at 7:00 pm.
If the first Monday is a holiday, the meeting is
moved to the 2nd Monday. The first meeting of each month is the General
Business Meeting. It is held at the Giuseppe Verdi Lodge, Order Sons of Italy
in America, Verdi Lane, Mechanicsville, VA. The Second meeting of the month is our Board of
Directors Business Meeting. This meeting is held at a council officer's or
director's home. It is open to all members and if you are interested in
attending, please contact the GrandKnight.
Our council hosts a large
number of council activities throughout the year, including pancake
breakfasts, halloween party, spaghetti and seafood
dinners, and Christmas Dances.
Please note that all dates
are tentative. You should confirm all events before you
go. Also, contact the indicated knight and volunteer to help out!
