FS Notes
Have you moved, have you changed your phone number, have you made a change to your email address? Please keep the council updated when you have a change of address, change of phone number and finally a change to your email. It really helps us to keep track of where to send things to you. If you have any changes, please forward them onto the FS.

Please look at the back of your membership card. What do you see? It has my contact info. Please make sure your loved ones know this in case you are sick or have passed away.

Former Officers,
The FS is looking for Council Jewels that you may have in your possession. Please turn them in as soon as possible. Bring them to the office at St. Tim’s, we have a mail slot that they can be left in. Thank you.

Members in hospital etc.?
Please contact the FS so that the council can send a card.

Do You Volunteer???
Each year our council files with Supreme a survey report with the amount of time our members spend outside of KC events volunteering.

The list is lengthy, do you help at church, do you deliver meals, do you visit the sick, homebound, do you help a neighbor, I am sure there are many more than that.

What I am asking, is for you to try and keep track of what event it is and how many hours you spend on that event each month.

On the 1st of every month to email me that list and I will include it in the report that I fill out each year. Please email me at fs@kc5141.org. If you don’t have the ability to email me, please call me to share that information. Thank you.
