A busy November continued with setting up for the tree lot. Don Legatt once again orchestrated a very successful tree lot set up. Many hands did make light (or not so heavy) work setting up the tree lot. See the pictures in this bulletin. The following people volunteered their time on Saturday for the tree lot set up, unloading the trees or both depending on their availability – Don Legatt, Erich Kunzman, Cory Sommer, John DeLander, Dave Miodus, Mark Rademacher, Jeff Eull, “Jungle” Jim Valerius, Brad Altepeter, Tom Kienlen, Kenneth Justen, Pete Ruhland, Eric and Daniel Paluck, Scott Arndt, Daniel McDonald, Todd Rathbun, Jim and Jake Wiegers, Chad Ronning, Joe and Isaac Van Hoorick, and Brent and David Traynor and possibly more. Please forgive me if you were there and your name was not listed, it was a busy day. The tree lot sales help the St. Alberts and St. Michael youth group. Thanks for all of the help.
The month of December will have an OPEN MEETING and WINE TASTING Party on Tuesday December 3rd at the St. Albert’s Parish Hall starting at 7:00 pm. Please come and bring your spouse, a friend or someone that is interested in joining the Knights. Many thanks to Cory Sommer who is running this event. Cory has indicated that this year’s wine tasting event will be extra special. The meeting day needed to be moved to Tuesday as there was a wedding reception set up at the parish hall and a parish wide adoration at St Michael’s church conflicting with the regular meeting date of the first Thursday in December.
Following the wine tasting the St. Nicholas party is scheduled for Saturday December 7th in the St. Michael Catholic School cafeteria. Don and Marie Legatt are continuing their selfless work putting together another party for the Knights. Help is always appreciated for setting up, working, and cleaning up after the St. Nicholas party. Please contact Erich or Brad to let them know if you can help – thank you.
A look into January shows that there is a spaghetti feed benefit for Joe Perrault, who is having back surgery on Saturday January 25 – please keep him in your prayers.
Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Thank you for all your work for the Knights to help out our community.
God bless,
Andy Sipple
Grand Knight
