E – excise good judgement when deciding who and when to drop
T – training Knights in all council program areas should be continuous
E – educate all Knights on Supreme and State retention policies
N – new Knights want to be involved in council activities
T – transfers and deceased do not count against net gain quotas
I – informed Knights are involved Knights
O – ongoing retention problems are simply “challenges”
N – new Knights are not to be considered as replacements

ROUND TABLE
A METHOD TO ESTABLISH A KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS PRESENCE IN A PARISH WHERE THERE IS NO COUNCIL.
SHOULD MY COUNCIL ESTABLISH A ROUND TABLE?IF YOUR COUNCIL RECRUITS MEMBERS FROM MORE THAN ONE PARISH, DEFINITELY ESTABLISH A ROUND TABLE
IF THERE IS A PARISH IN YOUR AREA THAT IS NOT SERVED BY A KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS COUNCIL – CONSIDER ESTABLISHING A ROUND TABLE IN THAT PARISH.
2010 DIOCESAN ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING
ROUND TABLE
TYPICALLY, IF YOU RECRUIT FROM MORE THAN ONE PARISH, THE MAJORITY OF YOUR MEMBERS WILL BE FROM THE LARGEST PARISH.
THE MAJORITY OF YOUR TIME AND FUNDS WILL MOST LIKELY BE SPENT IN THE PARISH WITH THE LARGEST NUMBER OF MEMBERS.
ARE YOU “SHORT-CHANGING” THE SMALLER PARISHES? DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT IS NEEDED IN THESE SMALLER OR MISSION PARISHES?
A ROUND TABLE WILL HELP SOLVE THIS PROBLEM AND ALSO HELPS WITH RECRUITING MEMBERS FROM THE SMALLER PARISHES.
2010 DIOCESAN ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING
ROUND TABLE
APPOINT A MEMBER FROM THE SMALLER PARISH(ES) TO BE THE COORDINATOR (Form 2629)
COORDINATOR SHOULD MEET WITH THE PASTOR AND DETERMINE WHERE THE PARISH NEEDS HELP THAT THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS COUNCIL COULD PROVIDE.
COORDINATOR RELAYS THE REQUESTS TO THE COUNCIL AT THEIR MEETINGS
COUNCIL HELPS WHERE IT CAN. PARISHIONERS SEE KC PRESENCE AND WILL WANT TO HELP OUT AND JOIN THE COUNCIL
FILL OUT Form 2630 AT END OF YEAR TO REPORT WHAT WAS ACCOMPLISHED
HOW DOES A ROUND TABLE WORK?
