Father John B. Collins Council 5417 |
|
Father John B. Collins Council 5417 was founded in 1963 through the efforts of Walter Cavanagh, Jean Coccola, Michael Savage, Thomas Taylor, John McIntyre, Peter Molloy, Murray Doyle and Anthony Culos. It is named after Father John B. Collins who was sent to Powell River by the Bishop to build Assumption Church and school. He was Pastor when our council received its charter. Father Collins was our council’s first Chaplain and Anthony (Tony) Culos was the first Grand Knight. Our Council works closely with Assumption Parish in Powell River, providing funds for various projects, members being active participants in their parish. etc.
We had our first clean up crew pick up debris on side of highway on Nov. 19, 2011. Eight brothers came out to support our "Adopt a Highway" committment. Thank you brothers Joe Infanti, Omer Ouellette, Roland Drouin, Cam Dubord, Lionel Desilets, Russel Strang, Nick Amato & Don Bourcier. See photo in Photo Gallery.
