Grand Knight Report:
We will begin our November meeting with a memorial mass for deceased members. This is a long-standing tradition in our council, and one that becomes more meaningful with each passing year. We honor all of our deceased brother Knights, and especially those who we lost in 2018: Philip M LaVenture, William (Bill) H Derrick, John R. Martin, Robert R. Maitrejean, Fr Leonard W Fraher.
 
The annual Columbus Day Dinner was held on 10/20/2018. The event was well attended. There were several monetary awards that were given to four organizations that support those with intellectual disabilities. Each organization received a check for $500 in addition to the money they already received from the annual Tootsie Roll drive. The organizations are: St Croix County Birth to 3, St Croix County ADRC, Lumberjack Kids and New Richmond School District Special Services. All of the organizations that received the money spoke as to how the money is being used. All of the groups are grateful for the Knights of Columbus.
 
This year the Knight of the year honors went to Vernon Conrad. Vernon is very dedicated to Knights. In the past he has done many of the behind the scenes work, delivering the fliers to the many businesses in New Richmond about our events, soliciting napkins and paper cups from the banks. Congratulations Vernon.
