Chairman Ray has informed me that our orders will be combined with District 52’s (St Alphonsus). He will be giving me the delivery date and pickup information in April. I’ll then be coordinating deliveries with each council.
- Field Agent
A field agent has yet to be assigned to the Wayzata, Medina, Long Lake and Loretto councils. If you know someone who is a leader with self-discipline who wants to do well for others while doing well for themselves, Lloyd Cybart, General Agent, would like that person to contact him at 952-686-7720 or [email protected]. The Field Agent position is full time, comes with training/support and has benefits.
