The Fourth Degree is the highest degree-level of the Knights of Columbus and it is devoted to the virtue of Patriotism. Our assembly now has almost 200 members and we conduct many patriotic events throughout the fraternal year. The Supreme Council instituted the 4th Degree in the year 1900 and we look forward to celebrating the 125th anniversary in 2025!
