As everywhere COVID considerations have severely limited in-person activities. After much consideration, the Assembly 3771 members chose a project administered by the YMCA Florida’s First Coast. Its purpose is to Serve and Strengthen Military Families; named “Operation Salute: Back-to-School-Bash 2021.” The YMCA assures us that 100% of the $1,000 sponsorship donation from Assembly 3771 is used for this Project’s express purpose.
To get this to you as soon as I possibly can, I’m submitting the entry form and supporting materials via email. If you need me to mail it, let me know.
If other information is desired, please let me know.
God Bless
Vivat Jesus!
Respectfully submitted,
Faithful Comptroller

St. Johns County Special Olympics
On April 1st, 2021 St John Paul II Council presented a check in the amount of $500 to the leaders of St Johns County Special Olympics. Typically, the Knights would help at their Track & Field, Basketball, or some other event. However, due to covid those events have not happened. The Knights are looking forward to getting back into direct support once the restrictions are eased, hopefully very soon!
