Thank you, John Zipperer, for leading the KC Free Throw Championship. There were 4 participants for New Richmond. We held the district level immediately following the council competitions. There were close to 20 boys and girls. The good news is that all qualified to go onto the Diocesan level in Ladysmith on March 16th.
Thank you, to Kevin Effertz, Jared Gorka and Chris Rud for helping out.
I am looking for someone that would be willing to submit candidates for Knight and Family of the month to the State and Supreme. This is a simple task. There is a form that needs to be completed before the 15th of each month and submitted. Please let me know if you would like to help out.
Thank you to the many KC members that helped out with the Corrigan Hall rededication. Thank you, Terry Palmer, for putting together the Egg Bake breakfast.
Attention KC members, spouses and family members!
