RON GRENIER - GRAND KNIGHT
My Brother Knights,
I hope you have been enjoying the great weather that we’ve been having.
I want to thank all the volunteers who helped out during the month of October. We had a busy month with the Spaghetti Supper, Jericho Dance, Candlelight Living Rosary, Bingo, our 4-Day Columbus Day Tootsie Roll Charity Drive weekend, and the Craft Fair. Thank you to all of you who helped. On Saturday evening several of us went to the Charity Ball in Milford to turn in our check for the tootsie roll drive. We placed in the top 10.
We have another busy month coming up with Spaghetti Supper, Aquanett, the night before Thanksgiving, and of course our Thanksgiving Dinner on Thursday. Starting on Monday, November 25th, thru and including Thanksgiving Day.
-
We will need an extraordinary number of volunteers those 4 days:
-
Meal Preparation in the Kitchen Monday – Wednesday starting at 8 AM
-
Meal assembly in the Hall Thursday 4 AM to 8 AM
-
Drivers for Meal Delivery starting at 8:30 AM Thursday
-
Meal servers starting at 11 AM on Thursday
-
Clean-up starting at 2:30 PM Thursday
If there is any time that you can give us, it would be greatly appreciated. There will be a sign-up sheet in the lounge or you can call my home phone and leave a message: 413-533-0938.
I want to wish all of you a very Blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!
Vivat Jesus!
Ron Grenier Grand Knight
VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH

in the Lounge, our Breakfasts, and whatever else we do.
Scott is also the Deputy Grand Knight of our Council and a Home Association Board
member.
Scott is very valuable to our organization.
Thank you Scott, for all you do.
