In the end of their morning food drive which was held at the parking lot at St. Bernard’s Catholic Church on Hwy 2 in Enfield, the Knights collected 1,815 pounds of food and $1,058 was donated to Caring & Sharing Angel Tree Food Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Besides the food drive, there was also a Chilli lunch takeout fundraiser held, put on by the St. Bernard’s CWL. That had many pre-orders purchased. They were picked up between noon and 1 p.m. by those who had placed the orders prior to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The chilli included a roll and a cookie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ladies were hard at work when the Laker News stopped by. They paused from their hard work efforts to pose for a photo for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, there was also a food drive happen at Nine Mile River United Church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How much food was collected at that event was unknown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”127″]<\/p>\n\n\n\n [adrotate banner=”84″]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [adrotate banner=”111″] [adrotate banner=”78″] ENFIELD: The community stepped up to help out the St. Bernard’s Knights of Columbus on the weekend of Nov. 13.
