We want to acknowledge our Deputy Grand Knight, Dan Wagner, for his positive energy in recruiting new members and for his active involvement in our council. He introduced us to a Food for Orphans program and got our guys involved on a Saturday morning to help the Walkersville Baptist Church community. We loaded a trailer with around 2,000 boxes of food to deliver to orphans living in extreme poverty in Honduras. He’s also been chairing a new program that we recently started called "Firehouse Subs to First Responders". We delivered meals to the Libertytown and Walkersville Firehouses so far and everyone we met were very appreciative by our act of kindness. He has also been involved with Boxes of Joy and delivering donuts to the guys in the recovery program at the Rescue Mission. He’s always looking for new unique programs to help our community in their time of need.


October 2020

Alex Haybok

We would like to acknowledge our Grand Knight for striving to keep our council active during these challenging times. Since we aren't able to meet in person he created a Zoom account so that all meetings can be conducted virtually. We have been relying on donations from our brother Knights to keep our programs running. Our Grand Knight created a PayPal Business Account so that we have an option to make donations online to support our programs and so that members can pay their dues online. He also maintains our council website and ensures that important information is communicated to our members.

Joe volunteered every night that week helping with set up, clean up, and serving dinner to hungry workers that spent each day rebuilding and renovating homes around Libertytown. I could not be there on Tuesday night that week to help with the dinner because I had to lead a business meeting. Joe was there in my place to ensure everything ran as smoothly as possible in my absence.
