There will not be a march this year – however we still need a large number of volunteers to help as Marshalls to work crowd control and safety. We will want to make a path from the Cathedral to the stage for the Bishop to walk and then form another path for him to get back to the Cathedral – this is to help ensure his safety…
Please click on this link to volunteer as a Marshall –
https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0F4EA9AB2AA7FD0-54253375-rally#/
We would like 30 to 40 Knights to assist – please wear your badge to the event.
Most likely will also need to take up a collection to help defray cost of the event – I will have more details at the Mid-Year Meeting this coming Saturday 1/11.
