Santa, Sausage & Biscuits

More than 300 men, women and children attended...and the Men's Club made sure that they didn't leave with empty stomachs.

OLL Mens Club Provides Mat and More

It's been a great year thus far. Increased membership, low athletic participation fees for our families, a mascot-emblazoned wrestling mat, incredibly successful events including the most successful reverse raffle to date, the most successful lenten fish dinners to date and more!

Keep up the good work men, there's more to be done and we're just the group to see it happen.

Get the Grill Out! for Lourdes Athletics

The Our Lady of Lourdes Men's Club will once again substantiate its existence, this time, from behind the grill.

Mother's Day Breakfast 2010

Once again, the OLL Men's Club "blue shirts" successfully prepared and served a fresh breakfast to the mothers of Our Lady of Lourdes Parish. Plenty of food, doorprizes, additional giveaways and childcare combined to make the morning a special one at Our Lady of Lourdes.

McClellan Memorial Wrestling Tournament: Something to Remember

Once again, congratulations to Marc Caito, Rob Rebein and Bobby Sponsel for organizing what was considered by many, one of the best-run wrestling tournaments of its kind. All this planning in less than 3 weeks. Not to mention, we had quite a few Lourdes wrestlers finish in the Final Four.

270+ Young Wrestlers-Ready to Go

The OLL Men's Club/OLL Athletic Department's 2010 McClellan Memorial Wrestling Tournament has drawn nearly 300 young wrestlers.

Numerous Men's Club members are stepping forward to make it a smooth-running tournament; something on which we can all hang our hats. Be there to witness one of the largest sporting events for CYO teams in Indianapolis. Better yet, be there to lend a hand. Sunday, February 28 at Scecina Memorial High School.

First Fish Dinner Phenomenon

Thanks to the leadership of Chris Ryan, our "Athletics Support" committee chairman, the Fish Dinner was an overwhelming success.

We not only had a continuously full cafeteria, but we had a kitchen-full of help. Between the breading of fish, the frying of fries, the baking of desserts and the servings of cheese pizza, there was a multitude of satisfied parishioners...a perfect combination of time, talent and in the end, treasure.

Thank you Chris, Fletcher, and Jerry.
