Council Christmas Tree Raising – Dec 3. noon

Help Needed-Saturday Dec 3 at noon. The Knights will be raising and decorating the annual Light up for Christ Tree at OLMC on Saturday 12-4pm.  This tree will be on display during the Advent season for the Parish and visitors to enjoy!  Dominic did the hard part by driving up to Pinetop and cutting down two beautiful 18 foot Blue Spruce. Now we have to raise it up and decorate it. It will take more than 3 or 4 people to raise the trees, so don’t be shy.  Now is your time to get in the holiday spirit and give an hour or two of your time.  The heavy lifting and raising of the tree will be at noon.

Thank you for your time and support!

Our sincere thanks to all of you who donated time and/or money towards making the 2011 PID Drive a success.  We were able to raise close to $2,000 to donate to various organizations supporting people with intellectual disabilities.  We will be determining distribution amounts at the November General Council meeting.  Please attend and voice your preferences.
