The Wagner-Dante Knights of Columbus chapter was doing business virtual from April 2020 through June 2020. We decided to start regular meetings back up in July to cover elections and keep business going normally. The chapter voted in July to pay for gravel to help fix up the cemetery roads which will happen sometime in the near future. July meeting also included the election of officers. Before the August meeting the knights got together to build and install and new sign west of Wagner. The one side has our original sign and the other we installed a sign to build awareness of human trafficking for the coalition. A special thanks to all the knights that helped, Ken Cotton for allowing the sign to be on his land, Jeff Doom for providing tools and supplies for the sign posts, and Don Kocer for supplying the posts and prepping them to be installed. In September the knights had our 2nd annual K of C trap shoot at Cimpl Made Hunts lodge. Tickets were also sold for our annual gun raffle. It was a very nice event for friends and family to get together and have some fun. This last fall the knights and various other members from the community got together to help the Lhotak family harvest soybeans because of an accident a family member had right before harvest. In October the knights decided to not have our annual Turkey Bingo at St. Johns because of Covid. Instead members Dick Soukup and Clay Payer handed out the turkeys first come first server outside of the church. All the turkeys were picked up that evening and we hope to continue the event in 2021. In November the knights donated money to Wagner Good Sam to help them get supplies for Christmas. The chapter along with the Catholic Daughters donated money for two books to be handed out during the Christmas season. In December the knights went around for our annualtootsie roll drive. The support from the community business was very generous. A special thanks goes out to everyone that supported our drive and the money collected will be coming to our community to help children with intellectual disabilities. Thanks again the local business for your support. In January the chapter had normal meeting and awards night with just the members due to Covid.
