The Installation of Assembly Officers for 2012-2013 occurred Tuesday evening, May 22.  Faithful Navigator Ron Boudreaux led the rosary at 5:00pm, and it was followed by social time before the catered dinner at 6:00pm.  There were 43 in attendance, including Faithful Friar Bill Elser, Arkansas Master Max Nutt and his wife Juanita, and several Sir Knights to be installed from the Hot Springs Assembly.

Max conducted the installation, and he was assisted by Gerald Krawczynski and four members of the honor guard, Tom Yerina, Ray Ambrozich, Bob Heisler, and Larry Cruz.

Arkansas Master Max Nutt expressed his thanks to Assembly 2316 for its hospitality, not only for this event, but also for the many times that he was a guest of the Assembly during his 5-year tenure as Arkansas Master.
