Spelling Bees are one of the Knights of Columbus activities held throughout the USA. Our council conducts them annually at both St. Joseph Parish and St. John Neumann Parish. Eighth grade students of parish families who participate in the parish religious education programs are invited to enter the competition.
Our winners then participate in the Diocese of Metuchen event, which for several years has been chaired by a member of the St. Joseph Council.
