Fray Garces Council 1830 of the Knights of Columbus has a long tradition of service here in Barstow. Through moral and material and finacial support, we have touched the lives of thousands here in our small town of Barstow we are proud to call home for the past 89yrs. That's right I am very please to announce we are about to celebrate our 89th anniverary on March 5th, 2005. We are planning a flag dedication ceremony and plan to flag "Old Glory" from our new flag pole on that day in honor of all those who served. After all are invited to a Knights of Columbus BBQ! Right here at our council hall, so I hope to see you all there.
