Insurance Awards
|
Insurance Awards Knights of Columbus general agents and field agents make it their business to provide the life insurance protection Knights and their families need.
They are devoted and concerned advisers, trained to be of service to Knights and their families. They are second-to-none in their willingness to help a fellow member learn how the Order’s top-rated products can protect him and his family.
The two leading general agents and two leading field agents for the calendar year 2006 were special guests at the convention of the Order’s Board of Directors. They were recognized for their outstanding performance and as representatives of all the fine work performed by their fellow agents.

It is also customary to reward our top producing general and field agents through an incentive award program at the end of each year. The 2006 award was a weeklong trip to Orlando, Fla. Taking the trip last year were 45 general agents and assistant general agents, and 157 field agents along with their wives.
