Grand Knight Report: Thank you to all who attended the Columbus Day Dinner it was a fun event with all those who attended. Great social event with good conversation, great meal, and good beverages to go with. It was fun to give the four organizations some much more needed money. We gave $500.00 to each group they were New Richmond School District-Special Services, St. Croix County -Birth to 3, St. Croix County-Office of Aging & Disability, and LumberJack Special Olympics. A special thanks to all these groups who attended our dinner.
A big thank you to all the people who helped with the trick & treating on Halloween, your help was very much appreciated by the community and the Chamber. Good job guys.
Thank you to the Pat Donahue family for their generous gift to our Council in Pat’s name. The donation will be earmarked for charity.
Donations: In addition to the $2,000 donated to the Intellectually Disabled at the Columbus Dinner, at our October meeting, we donated $250 to the NR Fine Arts Council, and purchased a $100 raffle ticket for the basement remodeling.
Knight of the Year went to Doug Mills. You can usually find Doug at Saturday night mass sitting in his northeast pew and taking up the collection along with his ushering duties. He works the Tootsie Roll Drive, has taken charge of the Punt, Pass, Kick, & Soccer Challenge. He also spends half of the Sundays during bingos selling bingo sheets and collecting money. Doug did a fantastic job these past two years as our Grand Knight. Thanks Doug, for all the hard work you put in with the KC’s
