Soccer Challenge has been moved to September 24th and 25th.  More info to follow.

Rome Braves tickets still available for the outing on the 27th of August.  Brother Gene will be in the Narthex with tickets for sale - cost is $10.

"Ride to Inspire" event for October rescheduled for April 28th, 2012.  We still need staff to help us make this as big a success as we think it can be.  Contact PGK Tom Schuler for details.

Looking for a group of champions to assist Brother Obinna with our State Raffle effort this year.  $5 gets you a shot at $5000.  This is a good fundraiser for our Council as well.

Membership goal is 42 for the year.  Insurance target is 23 - quota is less, but we should encourage all our Brothers to have some form of Knights insurance.  It remains highly rated and stable in these uncertain times for the market.

Thanks to you . . .

Cris Andrade has a new ramp for his house and the SVDP store has new racks for their expansion.  Charity is not always financially based, often it is more important to give of ourselves.  My thanks to all those Brothers who gave of themselves to make these projects happen.

Finally, it was my honor to award PGK Schuler a plaque in recognition of all that he has done for our Council.  His service is exemplary and a model for us all.  Thank you PGK!
