Ridgewood NJ,The Ridgewood Knights of Columbus Council #1736 is once again proud to be hosting their annual stickball tournament on Saturday October 8, beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Passaic Street in Ridgewood. This year’s tournament will feature both men’s and women’s teams, with a pig roast lunch afterward.
Now in its seventh year, the Ridgewood Knights of Columbus annual stickball tournament and its “taking it to the streets” theme takes on a whole new meaning, as the Knights this year are partnering with The Run for Hope Foundation to raise funds for Mt. Carmel’s Homeless Ministry Retreat. The Homeless Ministry Retreat is a spiritual program to help transform lives for the recently homeless. Through the retreats – one for men and one for women – homeless participants experience hope, faith, and unity through a caring network of men and women from different socio-economic conditions.
Participants can register online at www.runforhopefoundation.org. The cost for a team of four is $100, or $25 per person. Non-players are also encouraged to cheer on the teams and enjoy a pig roast lunch afterward. The cost for lunch is $25 per person or $75 per family. Corporate sponsors and matching donations also welcome. All proceeds from this year’s event will be donated to the Homeless Ministry Retreat.
