The Knights of Columbus of Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish set out to raise funds for construction of a new Parish Center with the organization’s First Annual Golf Tournament at Doral’s Jim McLean Course Sept. 9.

More than 48 players enjoyed a morning of golf ending with luncheon buffet at the Doral Park Country Club.

Father Israel Mago, Parish Pastor, pleased with results of the event, indicated the tournament will be the first of many other activities involving Parish members to raise construction funds for the first parish building project.

The Knights are a non-profit Catholic organization whose main goal is centered around support of Catholic Church charitable causes with a special interest in activities that assist Our Lady Of Guadalupe Parish in Doral.
