The State Council of The Knights of Columbus sponsored a Fourth Degree Exemplification Ceremony on April 30 at St. Mary’s Church on Hillhouse Avenue in New Haven. A total of 149 men were elevated to the Patriotism Degree within the Knights of Columbus. Many of the Knights are from North Haven and surrounding towns. They were escorted into St. Mary’s by 65 Knights in their colorful regalia. A reception was held immediately after the ceremony at Anthony’s Ocean View in New Haven.
