We will need at least 6 Knights each shift.

I know that this was not in our plan, but it is a big need and they need our help. It will be great visibility for the Knights which were one of the founders of Special Olympics and a great supporter. If you have availability, please consider helping on one or more of these shifts. As always all Knights working must be safe environment cleared. Wives and adult children or friends are welcome to help and will be paired with a Knight who is cleared.
