Membership Memo - 6/27/18

We gained 10 more members today.  Our June intake is now 123, the 2^nd best June in 5 years, and we’re not done yet!.  We now have 957 new Brother Knights so far this year, and have exceeded our Gross intake target by 7 members!  Congratulations to all!   We lost 1 member today and still need 17 to reach our Net intake goal. 

13 Councils appear to be Star-Eligible, including SP-7 reports and Safe Environment. 5 more have met membership and insurance goals and need forms or Safe Environment. 20 Councils have met membership goals and need insurance.  6 Councils have met insurance and need membership.  A few more are close on both. 

Please encourage your DDs to press on for a strong finish and deliver on their Council’s “convention roll-call” commitments. We are nowhere close to the commitments made at the convention. We need more members than we recruited last year in June to make our goal, and we still need 17 Star Councils.  There is still time to recruit and hold a degree.

I am unsure how many outstanding Form 100’s are still in the mill, but there were degrees reported as recently as yesterday.  We have been told that all Form 100s must be in the hands of Supreme by 9:00am Saturday June 30, so make sure your councils file on time!  Please follow up with your DDs to make sure all form 100s are filed ASAP.  It would be great of some more councils could reach their goals.  Remember, host Councils will receive a $25 Visa gift card for any Admission degree held in June based on form 450s submitted to Supreme.

The Safe Environment columns on the Stardom charts are current as of 6/25.  Grand Knights can no longer appoint themselves as Youth Director and file for a background check.  However if they had submitted an updated form 365 by 4:00pm Eastern on June 21, they should still be able to complete their background check.

76 SP-7s are still missing.  That’s too many!  Have your DDs remind their councils to submit SP-7 forms (Columbian Award) as soon as possible. 

 Keep up the good work, and we’ll reach our goals. We always finish strong and we are doing it this year too!
