Family activities:
The Family Activities program seeks to promote programs that involve the families of
members so to further promote fraternity, and family as the core of our society. Some
suggestions from the Supreme Council include activities regarding memorials, social events, sportoutings, and other recreational activities. This is the most flexible of programs, as each
year different events are introduced. Besides striking committees for the hosting of
family events, the Family Activities Director is also responsible for identifying the “Family
of The Month” and presenting the award at council general meetings.
Historically, Father Bonner Council has included the following activities as part of its Family Activities Service Program:
Family Pot Luck Supper

Family Bowling
A subsidized 5 pin bowling night for members and their families, with pizza and pop as refreshments.
Family Skating
A skating outing where chili and other refreshments are available.
Family Swim
The council will rent a pool and provide refreshments after (e.g. – pizza/pop).
