Kansas Speedway
Kansas Speedway Brother Knights,

It's that time of year again, The Sprint Cup at the Kansas Speedway is nearly a month away. As most of you know, we've got a great opportunity this Kansas Speedwayyear to raise BIG money for our Council and have a lot of fun while doing it. Instead of the hustle and bustle of operating two concession stands, we've been 'promoted' to operating the Bloody Mary and Margarita drink carts!

The Blood Mary and Margarita drink carts are SIMPLE to operate - We pour pre-mixed margaritas and pre-mixed bloody marys and collect the money, EASY. We've been told these carts are also the biggest money makers at the Speedway ran by Americrown, our Council keeps tips and 8% of our total sales. Each cart requires 2 people so that one can take a break if needed. In order to make this a success for the Knights, we'll need your help!

This years event will be September 26-28 (Friday, Saturday, Sunday).
We are in need of 15 people on Friday
40 people to help for both Saturday and Sunday.

OUR HISTORY

OUR HISTORY - FOUNDER: FATHER MICHAEL McGIVNEY

Fr. Michael J. McGivneyThe Knights of Columbus was founded in 1882 by Father Michael J. McGivney (photo at left) and our council has been serving the St Therese North parish since 1978. The group was founded to help men remain steadfast in their faith through mutual encouragement and to setup a system of insurance so that widows and children of members of the group who die would not find themselves in dire circumstances.

One of the primary missions of the Knights of Columbus is to insure that the Catholic Church remains vigorous and active. Toward this end, the Knights feed the hungry and help to shelter the homeless. They help senior citizens remain active and healthy. The Knights of Columbus sponsor blood drives and fight to protect the right to life of all individuals.
