On Saturday, October 20, 2012 the St. Mary of Huntley Knights of Columbus and their families joined together in the Huntley Adopt-a-Highway Program, cleaning the roadway on Kreutzer Road from the Kreutzer Road entrance to the St. Mary’s Catholic Church west to the railroad tracks.  The council will clean this section of roadway twice each year, in April and October.

When the Village of Huntley called local businesses and organizations to participate in the Adopt-a-Highway program, the St. Mary of Huntley Knights of Columbus Council #11666 signed up for the Kreutzer Road segment as part of the council’s service activities supporting the local community.

When asked about the support from the council members, Chairman of this activity for the Knights, Sir Knight Tom Lentz said, “We had great support from my brother Knights and their families.  It was also great that Frances Kreutzer came out to help and visit with the large group that came out.  It is a way for all of us to give back to the community.”
