Our assembly participate in parades, funeral honor guards, confirmations and will be represented at the fourth degree exemplification held annually at the Sheraton Hotel in Lisle, Illinois on the second weekend in February.

This training session will discuss how the Guard Should be conducted. This is a Great Opportunity for everyone to get trained. The Honor Guard Manual has changed over the years and a lot of Sir Knights are not aware of the New Changes. Come to the Training and help us look Sharp and Dignified. Watch for future training opportunities.
