A Note from the Faithful Navigator of Admiral Benson Assembly...

Welcome to the Admiral William S. Benson Assembly website! 
Our Assembly is located in historic Anne Arundel County, the site of the U.S. Naval Academy and the state capital of Maryland, Annapolis. Our namesake, Admiral William S. Benson, was the First CNO (Chief of Naval Operations) for the United States Navy. We are proud of this fine Catholic Naval Officer and his role in U.S. Naval history.

This year the Assembly will be focusing its efforts on recruiting new members into the Assembly and increasing the involvement of our current members. In particular, I am asking members to consider joining the Admiral Benson Assembly Color Corps.  If you are member of the assembly, please consider joining this order of Patriotic Knights. For those of you already active in the Color Corps, I thank you for all your work and hope you will continue to be active. If you wish to participate in the Color Corps, please e-mail or call Color Corps Commander PFN Bob Welenc, Email:  bob_welenc "AT" cablespeed "DOT" com;  410-969-8303 (home);  410-487-1730 (cell).

We are always in need of workers for our Bingo nights in Annapolis
. This is the sole fundraiser for our Assembly. We are hoping that many of you will help us with this important fundraiser. Currently, we run the Bingo nights at the Annapolis Council every 5th Friday, plus several additional times during Annapolis Council's carnival season in August. Please check the schedule below for upcoming dates. Thanks for your consideration!  If you can assist, please call Jake Kominsky at 410-766-7872.

As members of the 4th Degree, it is our duty to inform our fellow citizens about the role that the Holy Catholic Church and the Knights of Columbus can play in furthering the spiritual and moral development of American society. As representatives of Our Nation and Our Faith, we will always fight for the Culture of Life as an important part of the moral constitution of American society.

Thanks,
"Pro Deo Et Patria!"

Michael P. Dunn, Faithful Navigator, PGK [10966]
