March meeting is Open House

Sir Knights, please remember that we are asking each Knight to bring a prospective new member to the meeting on March 20. We will have a short business meeting with no program reports. Following the business meeting we will open the meeting room up to our guests. At this time, each program director will give a report and/or an explanation about his program. This is a golden opportunity to recruit new members for our council. Please take advantage of this and BRING AT LEAST 1 PROSPECT!!!

Easter Carnival Upcoming

A reminder that the Easter Carnival is upcoming, scheduled for April 8 at the school cafeteria. A reminder that not only do we still need prizes for the kids, but volunteers are needed to sell advnaced tickets for the event after Masses on April 1 and 2.
We are set for attendance prizes, the gum ball count and the raffle item. We could use bags of candy for the lollie pop tree, as long as Glenn Korando can receive them well before the event. If he can't get them at least 2 weeks before, the council will have to buy them. It's to difficult to set up on a moments notice, and he needs to know how many pops to mark.
If you can help out by selling tickets, getting candy or other prizes, please let Glenn know.
