The Brother Knights of Msgr. Newman Council volunteer to sponsor booth(s) and work it at several annual summer parish picnics (this year Msgr. Newman Council is donating to each parish picnic a large screen TV which folks win a chance on via the spin of a wheel). The entire proceeds from the booth(s) go to the parish.
One parish in the area, Most Blessed Sacrament, arranged for Msgr. Newman Council to also prepare all of the chicken served at their Chicken Dinner.
