We hope our Brother Knights are selling their 2017 Knights of Columbus Ohio State Council Cash Bonanza Raffle tickets! The ticket and cash turn-in is before or during the April 5th 7:30 meeting, this coming Wednesday at St Michael Church Hall.

You can also call Jim K at 330 507-7427 to turn in your ticket stubs and money. And, you can place them in the K of C mailbox at church; it’s located in the small room across from the entrance to the St Michael offices.

If a Brother Knight needs more tickets, send an email.

The monies must all be used for charitable purposes. Last year, we purchased Christmas hams and gave back to St Michael in Canfield and St Paul in Ellsworth, among other charitable endeavors.

As a council, we sold 800 tickets last year; that brought $3468.50 to the council. That means $4.34 of each $5 ticket came back to the council; an 86.7% return.

In addition to selling 800 tickets again this year, we’d like to see half of our 70 members sell at least 5 tickets each. This is truly a group effort by our council.

See you Wednesday, April 5th, 2017, at St. Michael Church Hall where I hope we can make our goal of 800 tickets sold! Rosary starts at 7:15; the business meeting at 7:30.

We will have an update on ticket sales here on the website a few days after the meeting.
