Tilapia Benefit Dinners return
to the area for the Fridays of Lent
The annual Tilapia dinners, consisting of a large portion of Tilapia, cole slaw, scalloped potatoes, hard rolls, drink and dessert, will be served on Mar. 7, 14, 21, and 28, as well as Apr. 4 and 11 in the Community Hall of the Schoolhouse Hotel, directly behind the Emmanuel United Methodist Church on Dry Creek Road in downtown White Sulphur Springs. Serving time will be 4:30 to 7 p.m. and the sponsors, the Greenbrier Valley Council 8689 Knights of Columbus, will use the proceeds for various community, youth, church and council projects. Dinners may be purchased for eating in or as take outs. “Because of the highly successful 2024 dinners, we were able to provide every elementary school in Greenbrier, Monroe, Pocahontas, and the town of Meadow Bridge with 12 brand new winter coats as well as 12 to the Monroe County Family Resource Network, the Pocahontas County Family Resource Network, and Wellspring of Western Greenbrier which serves western Greenbrier and eastern Fayette counties,” noted Andrew Wrzoawk of Waiteville, grand knight of Council 8689. He added “We were able to give $500 grants each to two food pantries, to two college students from our area and to two seminarians from southern West Virginia. And this does not include all the donations to various local charities including donations to the five public high schools in the Greenbrier and Meadow River Valleys for the after prom/after graduation drug free/alcohol free parties.” Cost of the dinners this year will be $18 with an extra $7 for an extra piece of Tilapia or a child portion for children 6-12. Children under 6 are free. The all volunteer culinary staff is again made up of some current and/or retired from The Greenbrier and from the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine and the wait staff are all volunteers from the area who support the projects of the Knights Council.
