Any one interested in running for Office must be present at the meeting to be elected. I would like to Thank Tom Mount for all the painting that he has done at the Hall so far this year with more to take place. The painting done so far really looks nice. So if you see Tom give him a Thank You. In closing I would like to thank everyone who stepped up to the plate to make this last fraternal Vivat Jesus Ed Hau GK
year a success.
A Message from Your Faithful Navigator Worthy Sir Knights: , as your delegate to The Knights of Columbus State Convention held in Cedar Rapids this past month I would like to report to you a tragedy. The delegation from Dyersville presented a resolution to make the general public more aware of the Supreme Courts decision on Roe vs. Wade. After one half day of discussion it was adopted for vote. The next day The State Family spoke against the resolution and a majority of delegates voted not to adopt it. The tragedy….? At this convention we finally had a chance to do something but, we did nothing. Fifty million innocent babies' lives have already been lost to abortion. Why isn't there something we can do to make more people aware of these atrocities? Faithful Navigator,Lee Voelschow COMING EVENTS June 09

For more information about purchasing Knights of Columbus Insurance, contact Martin Wernimont 268-1492. We Did it Again! This year at the Knights of Columbus State Convention in Cedar Rapids we received a plaque for the best bulletin in the nd state! This is the 2 year in a row that we have received this award. A lot of work goes into putting the bulletin together each month and I want to thank everyone for helping me do this by getting their articles to me, sending me the updates and keeping me informed so I can in turn keep everyone else informed. A special thanks to my wife Wendy for her “behind the scenes” help and to Tom and MaryKay Westemeier for all the time they put into getting the labels attached to each bulletin and making the monthly trip to the post office. Bruce Sweeney A Message from your Editor We had a few problems with our email last month and lost some of your addresses. If you know of someone who is not receiving their bulletin, or has changed their email in the last year, please contact me so I can update the email address book. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. Our new Saturday opening hour is 11:00am. If you are a pepper player there is always a game being played weekdays after 2:00pm. Come down and enjoy our happy hour drink specials from 2:00pm-5:00pm. Have you noticed a change in the look of our bulletin? Due new postal regulations we had to change the back page around. So now look for the monthly calendar on page 3 and advertisements on the back cover. Bruce Sweeney, Bulletin Editor
