Coats for kids

Brother Knights, we got notice that the Greater Ozarks Chapter of Knights of Columbus have tickets for the Springfield Cardinals game to raise money for Coats for Kids. The last year or two we have bought a thousand dollars' worth of tickets. The meeting to discuss Coats for Kids distribution and to get tickets is this upcoming weekend on June 2nd at 6pm at the Catholic Center in Springfield. This means we need to do a vote to spend the thousand dollars to get tickets.

GK Mike Weigand, FS Matt Wingo and I discussed doing an email vote due to the late notice. All that are in favor please reply back yes or aye, and all those opposed reply no or nay. 

We may want to do something more later on to help support this cause. Usually, we try to cover the bulk of the cost of what we give out, which if you remember we gave out more coats than Springfield did last year at a little over 200 coats. Which is awesome, but it means that even at a thousand dollars we are still far from covering the cost of those coats. This is a great issue as it means we made a difference in many lives. I want to thank everyone involved in promoting and helping in these efforts.  

Please reply to this email with your vote.
