GUIDEPOST

Grand Knights Message

Greetings Knights and Ladies. Spring is here baseballs and golf balls are flying in the air. Also the council year is coming to an end. Recognition should be giving to the March and April chairmen of the 2nd Sunday Breakfast; Ken Resler and Al Loerzel. The March breakfast was the morning after Fr. Harry's appreciation dinner which had small crowds. The April breakfast was a egg bake and for some reason had a very good turn out after all three masses. Thanks also to the everyone who helped out with the breakfast.

The last fund raiser for the council year the annual Tootsie Roll Drive was held the last two weekends of April. I will make a report  in the June Guidepost.

Lastly I am still calling around for knights who wish to be an officer. Holding an office is a great way to get involved and get to know council members. Please call me if you are interested.
