A new Knights of Columbus organization here will be entering floats in both the Elora (Sept. 26) and Fergus (Dec. 3) Christmas parades using the theme “Keep Christ in Christmas.”
The group, which is affiliated with St. Mary Immaculate church in Elora and St. Joseph’s church in Fergus, received its officials charter several weeks ago.
Officials are hoping the parade floats, in addition to serving as an antidote of sorts to what some see as the commercialization of Christmas, will help spread the word about the local group, which is open to men from both churches.
