One year ago The Knights Nation Athletic Club was born with this promise:

           

            “To provide a single school-wide volunteer organization in support of all male and female athletic teams at St. Thomas Aquinas. KNAC will work with all members of the Aquinas community to maximize and coordinate fund raising, event planning, and generally support the activities of all athletic teams including the Cheerleaders and Band.”

Report of our Activities:

 

In the 2008-2009 School Year The Knights Nation Athletic Club provided $34,189.27
