Brother Knights,

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself and my wife.  I am Ryan Lockwood and have been a knight for 6 years.  My wife Elizabeth and I met at J.L. Mann High School.  We both attended Lander University.  I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry in 2007.  Liz graduated with Bachelor of Science in Biology in 2008.  I currently work for Perrigo Inc of SC and I am a Quality Control Chemist.  Liz is a licensed Veterinarian Technician and works for Cedar Lake Animal Hospital.

I am very excited and motivated to be your Grand Knight.  I hope to see some of my brothers return and become active in our great council.  If you have any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to contact me or one of the officers in the council.  My officers and I want to get our Brothers active again.  Please fill out the questionnaire that I will be sending out so I can get some feedback from you.  I look forward to a great year!!!

Our Installation of Officers will be held on Saturday, July 17 at 6:30p at SEAS Social Hall.  The cost will be $12.50 a person or $25.00 a couple.  Please notify me at rpl612@aol.com if you will be attending.

We will be having a pool social on Sunday, July 25 at 2p at the Rohling’s Subdivision Pool.  It will be held at Roper Mountain Estates subdivision off Roper Mtn Road.  Bring your meat to grill and a covered dish to share.  Contact Chuck Rohling at chuck.rohling@charter.net if you will be attending.

In closing, let's work together as Brothers to get each other involved, and to reach our goals.
