RAFFLE UPDATE, MAY 9, 2025
The following is a quick update for the week:
Worthy Sir Knights, the information provided below is the Patriotic Raffle updates for the week.
BLUE raffle tickets were mailed to you on Tuesday April 29th. These 10 BLUE tickets MATCH the ticket numbers of the WHITE tickets originally sent to you.
Please ONLY sell BLUE raffle tickets from this point on. Remember that you must send newly sold BLUE ticket stubs, and donations, back in the provided return envelope, no later than JUNE 9th to ensure they get entered into the JUNE 20th drawing.
For those who had previously mailed in WHITE ticket stubs and payment; All of your WHITE stubs have been transferred to BLUE stubs by the raffle team, and are entered into the raffle. You have been mailed the BLIUE tickets (tickets only, no stubs) that match the WHITE tickets you gave to your purchasers. No further action is needed on your part.
Any WHITE ticket stubs received from this point on: Joe Bradley will contact you and ask you to send to him the BLUE ticket stubs, that match the WHITE stub ticket numbers you returned. The raffle team will transfer the purchaser information on the WHITE stubs to the BLUE stubs you send in, and enter them into the raffle.
ONLY the BLUE ticket stubs can be used to enter the drawing.
The following Questions and Answers are provided:
1. Q. I sold all my white tickets and sent them back with the donations, what do I need to do?
1. A. NOTHING, the raffle team has transferred your white stub information to the new BLUE ticket stubs and entered them into the drawing. You will receive the corresponding BLUE tickets in the mail to give to you purchasers.
2. Q. I mailed in my WHITE tickets stubs and donations after Tuesday April 29th. Now I just got my BLUE tickets in the mail, what do I need to do?
2. A. Joe Bradley will contact you when he receives any WHITE tickets. The raffle team needs you to return the BLUE ticket stubs that match the WHITE ticket stubs you previously returned. Once the BLUE stubs are received by the raffle team, the raffle team will transfer the purchaser information from the returned WHITE ticket stubs you sold, to the BLUE ticket stubs you return, and enter them into the drawing.
3. Q. I have unsold WHITE tickets, what should I do with them?
3. A. Please return them in the return envelope you received when you got your WHITE tickets.
4. Q. I just received my BLUE tickets and a new return envelope, what next?
4. A. SELL your new BLUE tickets, return the sold BLUE ticket stubs and donations back in the newly provided return envelope, by JUNE 9th. Remember the BLUE tickets you are receiving REPLACE the WHITE tickets you were originally sent. The WHITE and BLUE tickets have the same numbers. If you have sold WHITE tickets in your possession you must send them in WITH the BLUE stubs that match your sold WHITE stubs. You cannot sell the same numbered ticket twice (WHITE and BLUE).
5. Q. I sold all my BLUE tickets and need more, how do I get more to sell?
5. A. Contact Joe Bradley and Joe will arrange to get more tickets to you.
6. Q. I still have questions, what should I do?

Thank you again for your patience with this! This is an excellent opportunity to engage the entire Assembly in this important fundraiser. Your efforts will allow us to continue to support the good work you and your Assembly does for our Veterans, our Religious, and those in need.
Notice is hereby given that the July, August, September and October meetings will be moved to the following dates:
At the April 27, 2025, general assembly meeting, those at the meeting discussed a resolution to move the meeting date permanently to the first Thursday of the month from the third Sunday of the month. Many members, over the years, have commented that a Sunday meeting creates a family hardship for them, as they feel Sunday is a family day. The presented resolution was tabled and the members at the meeting voted to move the meeting for four months starting in the new fraternal year to see if this change will increase attendance at the general membership meeting.
