19th Annual Sylvester Leonard Golf Tournament 

Letter of Gratitude

The Knights of Columbus Council 9794, of St Philip, would like to thank the faithful parishioners of St. Philips, and those sponsors of our 19th Annual Golf Tournament which was held October 13th at the Atascocita Golf Club.  You made this great charitable event possible and the Knights “thank you”.
 
There were 59 golfers who played in our tournament, with everyone participating, going home with a gift, sponsorship photos and memories of good fellowship, door prizes and plenty of food and refreshments.
 
Congratulations to Tom Williams for a HOLE IN ONE. Because our tournament was sponsoring a “HOLE IN ONE INTERNATIONAL”, WITH $10,000 PRIZE on a designated hole. Tom selected his choice of prize for his amazing shot—a new set of Callaway irons. 
 
This is the KC’s major fund raiser and helps support the youth programs of St. Philip, scholarships to HS Seniors at St. Philip, the Annual Archdiocesan Youth Conference, St. Philip Confirmation Retreat, Mary’s Blessing donations in conjunction with other Huffman Churches and Ministries,  Birth Right of Humble, Pro-life Foundation, just to name a few.
 
Thanks to all the KC’s, especially the Officers/ Brothers James, Dave, Bruce, Mark, Kevin, Tim, Frank, their family members who planned this event for months and actively participated in planning, cooking, gathering prizes, and coordinating the tournaments successful conclusion.  AND “thank you” to the Women’s Guild for their baked goods used in the silent auction.
