2024 C&B  PROGRAM
 GOAL -  ONE BOOK PER MEMBER

Based on feedback from many areas and the fact that the convention will be held in May, we are launching this year's program earlier than we have in the past. A summary of the program is included below which includes some new bonuses.

This will give councils an opportunity to take advantage of spring activities in their local areas i.e street fairs, carnivals etc.

Books will distributed to each council during the month of April. We ask Grand Knights to begin setting up their calendars for their areas for book sales. Some of the successes last year included working with local restaurants to refer patrons, church drives and functions such as picnics, bowling, comedy nights to enhance sales.

The Quick Start drawing is July 21 at the Villa Roma so this gives sellers the best opportunity  to win  We ask any outgoing Grand Knight to get the ball rolling and not leave it for the next one coming in. Our Major Co-ordinators Charlie Nesto (Downstate), Jose Ruiz(Long Island), Ed Smith (Northern and Central), Roman Zguta (Finger Lakes and Western) as well as Lloyd Ippolito and myself are ready to assist.

                                                                              Thank you for your efforts and happy selling!!! Ken Karchinski Asst Director C&B
