Grand Knight Report:
Troy Schmit announced that he and his wife Terri were successful in their shopping for ski bibs, leggings, sweat pants and other cold weather items for the kids in need in the New Richmond School District. Thank you very much Troy and Terri.
This qualifies our council as doing the Coats for Kids campaign.
The Knowledge Contest for Math and Spelling was recently held at St Mary’s School. Thank you to Principal Laura Jo Jarchow for heading up this event. Winners are eligible to move onto the Diocesan level in Ladysmith, WI on March 10th.
Please welcome our newest members, Sam Charboneau and Landon Frey.
Fish Fry: Tentative dates have been set for the Fish Fries. They are March 9 and 23, 2018. We are looking for someone to step up to chair the events. Al Lingen is looking to step down as the chair. Over the years he has authored the Fish Fry book of knowledge to assist the next chair. Please consider chair or even co-chairing these events. Al is more than willing to guide anyone through the process.
