In a tradition that dates back at least a quarter of a century, the Reserve Knights of Columbus hosted a packed house of area senior citizens for their annual Christmas celebration. Although the event is free, those who wished to attend had to first secure tickets to the event, which included entertainment courtesy of the St. Peter School bell choir, bingo and a traditional Christmas dinner. One lucky attendee, Neil Bourg of LaPlace, even walked away with a brand new flat screen television courtesy of St. john Parish Sheriff Wayne Jones. According to KC Senior Citizen Chairman Burt Cashio, the celebration is funded both through the Knights of Columbus and donations from the community. In the picture above, Gussie and Theodore Webre of Reserve get ready to dig into their turkey dinner while students from St. Peter School line up behind them to serve meals to the rest of the seniors.

Drew Brees and Reggie Bush are virtually brand names, and Darren Sharper and Marques Colston have bolstered their reputations as marquee players with tremendous seasons thus far.
