REMINDER REMINDER REMINDER
Service Program Entry applications (Supreme Form STSP) are due Wednesday, March 31, 2010
Submit original copies of your entry to Ed Strach, State Program Director or your Diocesan Program Director. A copy of your entry should be kept by the submitting council.
1. Activity – The activity behind the successful documentation and tracking of the project will become the backbone of the successful Service Program Award entry.
2. Preparation – Similar to any successful program the more work done in the preparation phase will help ensure the award submission is complete, conscience and of high quality.
3. The Deliverable – The entry should be submitted in an appropriately sized 3 ring binder. The binders with the clear plastic covers for the front and rear are best for inserting a creatively designed project cover page.
Contact your District Deputy or Diocesan Program Director for further assistance in putting together a quality Service Award presentation.
Winners will be announced at the 2010 State Convention!
Church, Family, Youth, Community, Council and Pro-Life are the Service Award catagories.
Vivat Jesus,
Ed Strach
State Program Director
As our Palm Sunday weekend MI drive approaches, I ask you to consider the Special Olympics as your charity to support. Here are some facts from Michigan Special Oympics. Last year the Knights of Columbus councils in Michigan donated approximately $160,000 to the Special Olympics. This money goes to assist the athletes in training and competition thoughout the year.
If your councils have trouble staffing shifts for the MI drive, contact your local S.O. Area Director for assistance. They have management team, coaches and athletes who would be willing to help. This will also give your council a chance to meet the athletes you help.
On June 3-5, 2010, we invite you to join us at Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant for the State Special Olympic Summer Games. Opening Ceremonies will be held June 3 at 7pm in Kelly Shorts Stadium. Our State Officers and 4th Degree Color Corps will play a prominent part in these opening ceremonies. This is a family event full of color and pagentry.
We hope to see you all there!
Timothy J. MacGraw, State Special Olympics Program Director
