Easter is just around the corner! March 26th is our annual Easter carnival and egg hunt and I am still short on help and donations. As you all are aware, this is our annual church community contribution and our time to shine! The bigger the Knights presence the better our organization looks to our fellow parishioners and to the community in large. This is also a great opportunity for recruitment.
Last year we serviced over 140 paid children accompanied by at least one parent. A lot of those parents were fathers! What a great way to recruit new blood into our organization. But in order to do so we will need a larger presence from you. There's not much effort involved.
Come, help were you can and while assisting, speak to every male parent that arrives about the benefits of being a Knight. Its that simple. If you can't help with physical labor you can certainly help by bring your children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews up to enjoy the mornings
activities.
As always, we need snacks from everyone! This is a vital part of the event. Cookies, cupcakes, donuts, any type of finger snack is welcome and appreciated. We could also use a few more inexpensive gifts. Stuffed animals, small games, bouncy balls, cars, dolls, ect. Anything you can pick up cheep! I mean cheep! Don't go out of your way, but if you happen to be in a store and walk by a clearance section, see something usable and you can afford to donate it to the cause, it will be greatly appreciated.
Guy's, this is crunch time! I need help. I cannot do this with out you. Work for the day is not subject to just the men of the organization. If your wives, girl friends or older children wish to
help bring them along. The more the merrier! Thanks again to all of you which have already committed your time and donations to this wonderful event. I look forward to seeing you all very soon. Please contact me to sign up to help or if you have a donation which needs to
be picked up.
