GRAND KNIGHT’S MESSAGE — JOHN D’ADDARIO
Brothers,
The Holy Spirit has guided our journey over the past year and we have come to the end of another fraternal year.To this year’s executive, retiring, Thank you for your dedication;.your hard work has made a difference on theCouncil and your work is appreciated.
Reflecting on the past year, I feel we have accomplished plenty. Per Supreme’s request, we have a CharitableDistribution Agreement in place. We are an award winning council. We won two awards for the Cash CalendarProject and one award for the work of the seniors. A Council first is that we had a Brother Knight and his familyrecognized in Ontario as the Family of the Year. Congratulation to the Vermeltfoort Family! We were alsoacknowledged for the first time in Burlington along with the three other councils for a community award inBurlington Best. Together we can make a difference in the Burlington Community
Even though we have had successes in the past year, there have been struggles. We struggle with Brotherspaying their dues on time. We explored many options and have made it extremely easy to pay dues from theluxury of your own home. Contact Financial Secretary Greg Huckle to find out more details.
We need more help on our main fundraiser — Bingo. More details are in the newsletter.
We are looking for a lead for the Cash Calendar Project. It was decided that we would be doing the project everytwo years and will be working on the calendar structure in early 2019.
Our annual Golf tournament will be on September 20, 2018. Our new chair is Brother Greg Gilles, and he islooking for help and donations for the event.
In the coming months we will have BBQs for Special Olympics, Breakfasts in the churches and events helping outBrothers from other Councils in Burlington. Time is precious, so please consider helping out and show thecommunity at large why you joined the Knights of Columbus.
On a personal note, I look forward to working with the new executive members coming in the 2018/2019Fraternal Year.
The new fraternal year starts on July 1. It is our 59th year of operation. Let’s continue to focus on the threepillars of our order — Charity, Unity and Fraternity —and strengthen our presence in our parishes, our counciland our community.
Vivat Jesus,John D’Addario, Grand Knight

K of C 5073 Bingo ProjectMay 14, 2018
The Bingo Project requires six (6) new volunteers NOW!That means...YOU...YOU...and YOU!
No experience required. You will be slowly and gently trained. (At present, five of the present bingo volunteersare over 80 years young.)
The Bingo Project brings in $13,000 net a year for the local charities. It is the most consistent, yearly charityproject in this Council. At present, the three bingo events held by the Council are shown below.
*Tuesday“Midnight”
*Wednesday“Matinee”
**Thursday“Twilight”
Counting cards from: 8 p.m. 11 a.m. 2 p.m.
Selling the cardsfrom: 8:45 p.m. 11:45 a.m. 2:45 p.m.
Bingo Starts: 9:30 p.m. 12:30 p.m. 3:45 p.m.
Bingo Ends: 11:30 p.m.(approx.)
3 p.m. (approx.) 6 p.m. (approx.)
Group Leader: Frank Miele Luke Oko Paul Muller or FrankMiele
*Tuesday and Wednesday Bingos are held bi-weekly and alternate with each other.**Thursday Bingos are held only once a month.
The dates to cancel a bingo event (“6-month Bingos”) are April 1 and October 1.
If by this September this request does not happen, I, being the bingo project coordinator and reportingrepresentative, will consult with the present (approximately 14) bingo volunteers, in advising the Council 5073Grand Knight and recommending we take the first step of "effective January 2019 to cancel the Thursday bingoevent."
Also, since my backup reporting rep. has resigned from the Council, a new "backup" reporting rep. is urgentlyneeded. Again, full training will be provided by me. Finally, if the above requests do not take fruit, I, MarioColaianni, have no alternative but to resign from "all functions" of this project by June of 2019. The Grand Knightwill make the needed final decision.
If you need more information, feel free to contact me or the Grand Knight or any of the above-mentioned bingogroup leaders.
