providing monetary help. They also generally do help with setting up and beautifying
the hall for events.
Squires 
Under the guidance of Christian Brother Barnabas McDonald (1865-1929), the
first Columbian Squires circle was instituted in 1925. Membership in the Squires
is for Catholic boys between the ages of 12 and 17. Squires' activities are
many, varying from spiritual to active service for the Church and community.
Each circle elects officer members from their own rank, teaching skills of
leadership and responsibility.
