Larry Gremillion was recognized for his work in the field of technology/communication the past four months. Larry, in response for assistance with communications effort in the absence of Rick Darnell who is going back to school, said he would step up! This was great news for the leadership team, as there are there so many areas of work in technology that are required in a timely manner. Thank you Larry for your commendable job and helping us manage through many challenges of technology such as sending out through email general communications and council meeting meal requests, coordinating ticket sales and table registration for Fun Fest.

Sir Bill Nosek - December 2023 Knight of the Month
The Council 10208 "Leadership Team" voted to award the Knight of the Month designation to Sir Knight William "Bill" Nosek.
Sir Knight Bill was unable to attend the December meeting due to being held (I'm sure against his will) at Good Sam's Rehab Center so the Knight's Council brought the Award to him with Grand Knight "Gary Wolfer" and over 30 friends, Lady Knights, Nurse, Daughter and Wife joined in a surprise visit on December 8th at Good Sam's to present Sir Knight Bill with the December Knight of the Month Award!!
