Warden Election

It saddens us to report that our newly elected Warden Br. Neil Hill has had to reconsider his ability to perform the duties as Warden.  Br. Neil has relayed the message that if he cannot give 110% to a job he would rather step aside. For this honesty he is to be commended.

As a result, through our Grand Knight we will open Nominations through an alert to the general membership with the goal of electing a new Warden on June 4th at our Regular Business Meeting.

Nominations should be directed to OUR Worthy Grand Knight Terry Finn either through e-mail at gk@kofc9652.com or by phone at 613-483-1517.
