Grand Knight's Message for May, 2022
Newsletter May 2022
From the Grand Knight Council 6504:
Dear Brothers,
Welcome to May 2022
I Hope that All of You and Your Families Continue to be Healthy & Safe!
EH K of C Lounge Update *** |
|
- New K of C Award Plaques Found in Closets – Rich Organized All Plaques Found in Closets – EH K of C Charter Members Plaque, EH Town Proclamation Plaque, 47 Year History, Deceased Brothers Plaques, Star Council Award Plaques, People with Intellectual Disabilities Plaques (16), & Other K of C Award Plaques, Reorganized Newspaper/Church Bulletin Boards, & Hung All Plaques on the EH K of C Lounge Walls.
- FIOS Internet was Called – Robert Cosentino found out that we cannot get the Original Quote of $40 Per month. FIOS Now Quoted the EH K of C as a Business for $165 Per Month or $1,980 Per Year which is Outrageous for Part-Time Internet usage of the Lounge & Officers & General Virtual Meetings.
- New Internet Switches for the Cafeteria - Father Matthew Agreed to Split-the-Cost of replacing the Switches even though he said he had no intention of redoing it right now for the Cafeteria areas. John Dixon had a Meeting with Steve Mullen & the New Quote for the 2 Switches with Labor is between $2,200/$2,300, instead of the 10/28/21 Quote for $2,641. He also said Father Matthew has already sent in a check for the full amount of the original quote. The good news is that the new HW is on order. The revised quote will be closer to $2,200. Steve Mullen has agreed to adjust the quote for the exact amount of time (labor) spent on the hardware configuration and installation & testing. After the installation Fr Matthew will receive the final bill & will receive a refund for the difference. As soon as the Hardware comes in he will get the work scheduled. (Should be within the next two weeks.) Thank-You Father Matthew!

We hope to do so much more this year but we need everyone's help. To sponsor a team costs $1,500, but since many councils do not have that kind of money presently, a smaller donation will help as well.

KNIGHTS DELIVER AID TO UKRAINE
Within days of the invasion of Ukraine, Knights in Poland created a housing network for refugees and delivered essential supplies to the war-torn country. Additionally, Knights set up tents — dubbed “mercy huts”— along the Poland-Ukraine border to welcome refugees escaping the conflict. Meanwhile, Knights in Ukraine have coordinated the distribution of supplies through the “Anti-Crisis Committee,” a group established by the Archdiocese of Lviv.
