Fish Are Frying This Friday Oct. 26 in Sylva
Nobody cooks fish like Catholic men on a Friday! The Knights of Columbus, a men's fraternal organization at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Sylva, fires up its 4 vegetable oil fryers Fri. Oct. 26 from 5 to 8 p.m. ($8 for adults, $5 for kids 12 or under), filling them with American catfish (they taste better than Chinese catfish, and it's the principle of the thing), hushpuppies and hashbrowns. Over in the kitchen, others are serving freshly made cole slaw, drinks, homemade pies, brownies and other desserts.
The crowd of several hundred people is always lively and friendly -- Catholics, Protestants and perhaps even a few hungry nonbelievers. The net proceeds go to charitable causes, including support for intellectually disabled residents in Jackson County.
Directions: St. Mary's church is in Sylva's former "Pumpkin Patch" neighborhood. Once you're on Grindstaff Cove Road between U.S. 23-74 and downtown Sylva, take Dillsboro Road into the neighborhood and you'll see the church, which is at the corner of Bartlett Street and Dillsboro Road.
