Grand Knight Report:
The Punt, Pass and Kick and Soccer Challenge are fast approaching. Saturday August 25, 2018. Registration starts at 10:30 am and the competitions start at 11:30 am. We are looking for a great turnout from our local youth. There is also a need for many volunteers to help sign up the youth, keep score, and supervise. Hopefully the weather will be warm and sunny. Last year’s completion saw a large increase in numbers from the past years even with the rain. Thank you to The Centre for allowing us to do this during Corn Fest.
 
Welcome Jim Mitchell as our new District Deputy. Our new district 82 consists of Glenwood City, Hammond and Amery.
 
Congratulations to Dakota Johnson on achieving the Eagle Scout rank. Our council donated to Dakota’s Eagle project last year. His project consisted of building a storage shed for Grace Place here in New Richmond.
 
Officers installation dinner will be held on 08/16/18 at 5:30 pm. at the hall All newly elected officers are encouraged to attend.

Golf: The Somerset Council will be holding their annual Golf Tournament again this year on August 17, 2018 at the Bristol Ridge Golf Course. Please contact Jeff Williams for details.
 
Bingo:
KC Bingo is just around the corner. We are always looking for help with this being our biggest fund raiser. September 09, 2018 will be the first night for the upcoming season. The jackpot carry over from the spring is quite large so extra help will be needed to assist with the bar and help on the floor. We are also excited to show off our new Bingo equipment.
 
Food Drive: Ed Zimmerman can always use help on the 2nd Monday of each month, 11:30 a.m. at Wal-Mart (s to help load food and deliver it to the food shelf.                                                                                      
  
Congratulations to David Gleason, our newest Honorary Member. Dave has 27 years of membership in our council, and is a 3rd degree Knight. Dave played a lot of softball in a KC uniform over the years, at a very high level, and was active in State and National tournaments with our Council teams.

May He Rest In Peace
