Dinner will be served at 6:30 p.m., with a cocktail hour beginning at 5:30 p.m. The dinner is open to the public, and reservations must be made by Wednesday, Oct. 14.

This year's award recipient, Greg DeCleene, has been a lifelong resident of De Pere. DeCleene is the owner of the Swan Club, the Legends franchise, Caliente, Black and Tan and the Chicago Street Pub. He has been devoted to helping individuals, families and groups in the De Pere and surrounding areas.

DeCleene's nomination letters demonstrated that he is a true supporter of philanthropy and has shared his gifts with humility and generosity.
The Silver Knight Award ceremony was initiated in 1967 by St. Norbert College president Dennis M. Burke, O.Praem., to acknowledge those people in our community who have gone the extra mile to make this a better world in which to live. De Pere Community Night recognizes a resident of De Pere who exemplifies the Norbertine tradition of self-emptying service to the community.
