Pancake Breakfast Sunday January 8 After ALL Morning Masses - Help Needed - Set-up Saturday 10:30

Set-up is at 10:30 Sat as there is another meeting until then in the hall. We should be done by noon with enough help. We also need to set-up a membership drive table and the TV as I plan to play a K of C slideshow.

We should have 8 to 12 students to help for each time slot Sunday, i will need someone to be a coordinator for them. Need to teach them what to do and how, then help them do it. i will work on a brief instruction sheet to use. Please let me know if you are willing to fill this role (either or both time slots).

Our Winter Pancake Breakfast is this Sunday Jan 8th after all morning masses. This is a free will offering breakfast to support the Knights of Columbus Council and its charities.

Please come and help if you can for 1, 2 or all 3 masses. We could also use help cleaning up at noon.

We could use help in the kitchen, serving line, dish washing, cleaning tables, greeters, and general help.

Greeter is a great spot to work if you cannot stand for longer periods, sit at the greeting table and make change as needed. Free will offering buckets set out so not collecting money other than for change or credit card charges (easy charge process). We will also have a membership recruitment table with our District Deputy so that is another spot we could use a member sitting.

We are now taking credit cards for our fundraising breakfasts, dinners, events,, and donations such as for the Turtle Race and the Ultrasound Squares. At this time dues will still be handled manually by check or cash.

 

The ticket or donation items are selected from the Mokena Knights K of C website then to complete the transaction you will be taken to a secure merchant processing site to enter credit card information. We store no credit card data it remains with the secure merchant processer.

 

Refunds for formal dinner and event tickets are only available up to 10 days prior to the event. This is because we must make a head count commitment well in advance for these and will get charged if we fall below that number so need an accurate count to submit. You may substitute an attenndee but please notify the event coordinator so the attendee list can be updated.

Other refund requests need to be made 2 days in advance of the event to allow time to make the updates.
