2023 Knights of Columbus State Convention Meeting
2022-05-14 09:00 - 11:00 | Council 6402 Hall, 3722 Cavalier Dr, Garland, TX, 75042, United States
Brother Knights and Ladies All,
Well, our clock has started ticking for the 2023 Knights of Columbus State Convention to be held in Dallas. I thank each of you for stepping up to assist in making this the Best Convention Ever! One thing that needs to come to our immediate attention is that the Convention will be held Friday May 5 through Sunday May 7. This is a change that Mike McLaughlin confirmed with me just a bit ago. Please update your calendars to reflect this change and I apologize for any issues this may incur.
We just got back from the Corpus Christi Convention and as I am sure many that attended, saw some things that we can use to improve our plans! I plan to have a meeting of our committee on Saturday May 14 to begin the initial conversations and planning. Please confirm by replying to this email that you are available the morning of 5-14. I plan to begin at 9:00 and be done by 11 and plan to hold this at 6402 Council Hall in Garland. I will confirm this later this week.
I have the minutes from the 2020 Convention that never took place. Please email me if any of you would like a copy to review what was planned. Please put your teams together if you haven’t done so already. If you have an assistant co-chair already assigned, have this person join us on the 14th. We do not need entire team attendance at this time as we are in the initial stages.
Once again, thank you for all that you have done and will do to make the 2023 Convention a Success!
See you all on the 14th!
SK Mike Courtney
Dallas Diocesan Deputy
