Council 953 was able to hold a tootsee roll drive to benefit local ID guests at the Sunday Masses at Sacred Heart Church in Sacramento. Through the efforts of the volunteers, we collected $330.00. By combining this collection with the funds collected at St. Mary’s Church allowed the Council to exceed its goal of $1,000 for this program. The 953 Knights participating were Fran Mugartegui, Zac Rivera and young Bill James along with chair Dick Cutting PSD. The event was assisted by volunteer Chuck Parsons from a neighboring Council; Don Baumgartner a parishioner and Dick’s two grandchildren Annie and Steve. We thank them all for their generous help.
