Worthy Brothers,

     I am very honored to be elected Grand Knight of our council. A council that has such long and honorable reputation of accomplishment. I am committed to continuing our legacy in serving God, our country, our church and our families that my predecessors established in the years past. I know that as we work together, just as we have in the past, we will meet and exceed the lofty expectations we always set for ourselves. I am fully aware that I can rely on all of our brothers to do the work required to attain success. I would also like to congratulate all of our new officers. I know that you are well qualified to fulfill the duties and obligations of your office.

     I am immensely grateful to Past Grand Knight John Klinkenberg for the knowledge, mentorship and experience he provided me in his tenure as Grand Knight. I know that I can always rely on the advice of all our Past Grand Knights and our other council officers to assist me in guiding our council to complete success.
We have an ambitious year ahead of us. As we are all aware of and have discussed many times in the past, we must work to expand our membership. Ahead of us are our charity events such as the Tootsie Roll Drive, our annual golf tournament and the Doc Broome Ball. I am always willing to accept suggestions so please do not hesitate to put forth an idea that will help us succeed. Again thank you for your trust and confidence.

     Lastly, please have a enjoyable and safe Fourth of July.

Tim Wright
