| KNIGHT OF THE MONTH is Paul Endres. Paul recently gave up a weekend to be a delegate for us at the State KC convention. And that's only the tip of the iceberg (before global warming!) as Paul chairs our Charity Raffle, coordinated our Mother's Day Roses, help split logs, and is now getting busy with the Parish Picnic. Know you are very busy Paul – and we especially appreciate the priority that you put on Knights of Columbus involvement! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| FINANCIAL SECRETARY Bob Zellner put in a lot of extra time to file the first ever informational tax return for our council last month. Due to the amount of revenue we take in – we need to be filing this information. This task was made harder as in the past our council had multiple different check books. During the past year, our "books" have been coordinated to make possible an accurate accounting of our council. THANKS Bob for all of your work – you are one special B.Z. guy! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| OUR CELL PHONE RECYCLING PROGRAM continues to benefit Special Olympics. Simply get them out of your drawers and drop off your used cell phones and charges at a KC "box" in the Gathering Room, Neil's, or Waunabowl. All personal information is deleted from the phones, they will be refurbished, and put to use. Thanks to George Rizza who started this, and Rick Raemisch now taking over this program for our council! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
