Arizona State Council Knights of Columbus - Fraternal Year 2024-2025
In July we announced a Fast Start incentive to reward Brother Knights who recruited 5 or more new members before September 30. We are now happy to announce new incentives that will reward recruiters, grand knights, and district deputies who grow the Order this year (July 1, 2018 - June 30, 2019).
