Council Newsletter – March/April 2020

MESSAGE FROM THE GRAND KNIGHT

            The Pancake/Sausage Breakfast was a huge success.  Thanks to Brian Ziegler for organizing this and to all the knights who volunteered their time to help at it.  We have decided to continue to have breakfasts every month.  Our plan is to have them every third Sunday. 

The first ever state Cornhole Tournament was a lot of fun and raised money for Special Olympics.  Thanks to all the members who helped to make this event a success.  Also thanks to the members who so willingly chair our Valentine’s Dance and to those members who donated prizes for this. 

Our Lenten Fish Fries will begin February 28.  Please consider volunteering your time and help at these events.  Much help is needed to make them a success!  Together we can make it happen.
