Message from Our Grand Knight Tom Scalise
Dear Brother Knights & Sister Columbiette's,I hope everyone is keeping warm during this unseasonably
cold Spring! Hopefully warm weather is right around the corner. April was a slow month at the Council & there is nothing new to report. In contrast, May is very special with Mother’s Day, Armed Forces Day and Memorial Day.
As the Columbian year is coming to a close, it is time for Council elections. We will be putting together a search team led by Brother Anthony Filorimo. If you would like to be considered for any Council position, please let Anthony know.
On Sunday, May 20th, I would like to host, “Breakfast with the Grand Knight.” Time has yet to be determined. I will be sending out an email a week before.We are supporting Harborfest’s Model Boat Regatta, Sun, June 3rd, 8:30 to 11:30AM... Perfect for demonstratingour good deeds to prospective members. Please let me, or Bill Palafox wpalafox@aol.com, 516-728-4389,
know your intentions now…5 who can commit to the full 8:30 – 11:30AM that day are ideal . The children need us.
I have been fortunate to be able to rent out the Council every weekend in the month of April. Unfortunately,
this means that the Friday Night Card games have been cancelled. In May. I have the hall rented May 5th and May 12th. That means card play is canceled May4th and 11th. I apologize for this but these rentals bring in $3,000 of income for the Columbian Clubwhich is needed to pay the rising costs of running the
building.
I would like to offer up the use of the Council any otherMonday, Wednesday or Thursday (if there is no Columbiettes meeting). Please let me know if this is a feasible solution.
The success of all Council events depends on participation from all members. Please call me if you can and are willing to assist.
Fraternally,
Tom Scalise, Grand Knight
