Len and his lunch crew did an excellent job with the spaghetti. It was voted "best lunch after a degree ceremony."* If you haven't had the chance to taste our KC spaghetti, make an extra effort to attend our next spaghetti dinner.

One-of-a-Kind Program Aims to Become National Model
updated: 10/28/2011
As an active Knight in our council, Peter Honsa knows what it means to put our central principle of Charity into action. In
addition to his duties as General Manager of Honsa Lighting, Peter has dedicated his time, energy, and expertise to a new and
innovative program called Imagine the Possibilities.
The goal of this program is to broaden the horizons of at-risk students through the world of business. A brain-child of
Risen Christ School (RCS), Imagine the Possibilities makes the hands-on mentorship of top executives available to small,
focused groups of 7th and 8th graders.
It's that time of year again! St. John Neumann and our council have teamed up to bring you and your kids (or grandkids, neices,
nephews, neighbors) the world famous, much anticiapted Tailgate Trick or Treating!
Where: St. John Nuemann Parking Lot
