This walk started at Holy Eucharist Church and then went out 3-5 Kms within the area, all the time praying the rosary. Finishing back at the church,all the walkers were invited to a luncheon at the parish hall. The greatest news was that a total of $10,000 was raised in support of the Marion Hour, a daily program on CKJS radio station 810.It was great to see the 4th degree honour guard leading the walk. The walk next year will be held on May 27th again at Holy Eucharist parish. Next year it would be great to see many more 4th degree Knights out and all Knights especially those Brother knights whose councils are with-in the area.
