Ridgewood NJ, The Ridgewood Knights of Columbus Council #1736 is once again proud to be hosting their annual stickball tournament on Saturday, October 7, beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Passaic Street in Ridgewood.
Enjoy a fun Fall event with friends and family to support a good cause. Now in its eighth year, the Ridgewood Knights of Columbus, in partnership with the Run for Hope Foundation and Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, is sponsoring this community stickball tournament to benefit recently homeless men and women who struggle with addiction, through Mt. Carmel’s Homeless Retreat Ministry. 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 varying socio-economic conditions.
The cost for a team of four is $100 in advance and $120 at the door. Non-players are also encouraged to cheer on the teams and enjoy lunch afterward. Corporate sponsors and matching donations also welcome. All proceeds from this year’s event will be donated to the Homeless Ministry Retreat.
