On Sunday January 7^th, the cold spell broke long enough to permit 35 kids ages 9 -14 to come out for the first ever Foley Free Throw Contest sponsored by the Knight of Columbus.  The contest was held at the Council's new home parish Divine Child.  The elementary school gym was the perfect place to engage 35 participants in comptetition.
