The St. Philip Council of the Knights of Columbus would like to thank the residents of Payson and Walmart, Bashas and Safeway for the successful Tootsie Roll drive for the Payson Special Olympics and the handicapped held the weekend of Nov. 13, 14 and 15. This year’s annual event income exceeded last year’s event despite the state of our economy. Every cent collected will go to them and the cost of the Tootsie Rolls was paid for from the Knights’ charity fund that comes from the Knights’ frequent dinners and breakfasts that are held at the St. Philip’s church hall.

To all the folks that I promised that by eating the Tootsie Roll they would become “10 years younger” ... I hope that happened. You are all great people.

Thank you all.
