2016 Membership Dues
Dues for the 2017 Membership Year have been mailed
out and you all should have received them. As was last
year, the Dues statements have been Mailed in hard copy.
No Dues Invoices were sent via Email. The Officers
have agreed to maintain the dues at $35 for 2017.
However, the Officers have also agreed to add a $5 late
charge for dues not received after January 16th, 2017.
This added charge is intended to encourage prompt
payment and to reduce the need for redundant mailings
and follow-up contact when dues payment is delinquent.
Please continue to make your generous voluntary
contributions to the Boysville, Take 5 Program and the
Fr. McGivney Chair for Life Ethics. Our Council is
assessed a quota by our State Council to support these
programs. Donation shortfalls mean that monies from
our fundraisers must be reallocated to these State

ANNUITIES
The beauty of our annuity products lies squarely in their simplicity and security. They are simple
from the standpoint that they're fixed in nature. They provide long-term accumulation of wealth,
specifically designed for retirement needs. There are no hidden management fees or annual charges.
(Surrender charges may apply).
Secure because they are backed by the Knights of Columbus, an organization that earns the highest
ratings from independent rating services while maintaining high ethical standards. Our investment
philosophy is consistent with the nature of the funds entrusted to us. We invest in vehicles that
generate competitive rates for you, while assuring absolute safety of your retirement nest egg.
Whether you're looking to start a retirement savings program or moving substantial, more volatile
funds into 'safer waters', the Knights of Columbus offers programs that can help you achieve your
