On August 4th, council 953 served beer to thirsty pig roast participants. John, Fred, Lewis, Terry, and Alex slacked the thirst of many while Brother Jerry took a more hands on approach. Arriving early, he helped break down the freshly roasted pigs into more manageable bites with the other men from St. Stephen’s. His presence was unknown to me until I came into the classroom where they were working. The knife-wielding men were happy to see the pitcher of beer I brought for their consumption. Besides serving beer and pork, Terry joined in on the fun by participating in the White Elephant booth across the lawn. He was the proud winner of a large jar of jelly beans, yet the real winner that day was St. Stephens when we handed over more than $100 in tips. This goes to show that fraternity, community, and charity can be fun. Especially handing out over sized beers to those lucky Brother Knights. Thank you one and all.
