Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Come to one of the public events the council lists on kofc283philly.org, such as a food or coat drive, a Mass or a festival. To ask about membership, use the contact form linked from the Join the Knights page..

You can just show up.

What to expect

At a public event you can attend a Mass, walk with the council in a parade or festival, or help with a drive. Events are announced one at a time, and the site does not list costs for them. Membership questions go through the contact form, and the site does not say how a first meeting works.

Tips for your first visit

  • Check the event listing for the date, time and place before you go.
  • Dress for the weather if you plan to walk in a parade or festival.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Public drives, Masses and festivals are open to anyone, and the site has a contact form for membership questions. The council does not publish membership rules, dues or a guest policy..
