2016 Moolah® Shrine Potentate
Lenny Martin
Dear Nobles,
I am honored and humbled to be elected as the 127th Potentate of Moolah Shrine
Temple. I would like to congratulate Illustrious Sir David Dieckhaus on the tremendous
year in 2015. I know the Divan is up for the challenge to keep the bar set high. We
have a busy year ahead and look forward to visiting with each of you. I ask that you
help us make this year successful for everyone at Moolah.
I am excited to announce the appointment of Robby Dirkers to the position of Outer
Guard. Robby is no stranger to Moolah. He has been Assistant Chief Aide for the past
few years and is someone you can always count on. Robby is always willing to lend
a hand whenever and where ever needed. Robby and his Lady Pam are going to
make a great addition to the Divan family.
As in years past, we need to focus on membership. Without new members this Great Fraternity and the World’s
Greatest Philanthropy, Shriners Hospital for Children, will be in trouble. So please find those good men and make it
your mission to bring them in to the Moolah family. We are the best kept secret, so get the word out.
I have one Shrine Club Marshal this year and that is Gregg Price from SEMO Shrine Club. Gregg and his Lady Susan
have served on the Divan before and are eager to help out in 2016.
I have also added Shaun Reuther to the Divan for 2016. He will be the Membership Liaison. With his involvement in the
Nomads this will be the perfect opportunity to do some exciting things with membership. Shaun and his Lady Stephanie
will make a wonderful addition to the Divan family.
My motto this year is “Remember Why”. Remember why you became a Shriner. The first thing that should come to
your mind is helping kids. As a former Shriner patient, I can speak from experience that without the Shriners I would
not be the person I am today. So be PROUD to wear the fez and remember that when you do you represent the
Hospital.
The Potentates Presentation Ball will be February 27th. The ball will be a magical event filled with fun. Dress as your
favorite Disney Prince or Princess. Let’s see what dreams are made of.
The Circus is once again at the Family Arena in St. Charles March 17-20th. Circus Chairman Dean Isbell has worked
very hard with the entire Circus Committee to bring the best show ever. The Circus parade has moved back to
downtown St. Charles on March 5th with the Circus kick off to follow back at Moolah Temple. Please support the
circus by selling tickets, selling ads, and helping where ever needed.
The Spring Ceremonial will be held on April 23rd. This also is the 130th Anniversary of Moolah Temple. We will be holding
an anniversary celebration that evening after the ceremonial festivities.
Last, but surely not least, a HUGE thank you to all the ladies of Moolah Shrine. Without the Ladies supporting their noble none
of this would be successful. So from the bottom of my heart Thank You for all that you do and your continued support.
I am Proud to be a Shriner and even more proud to be your Potentate for 2016!
Illustrious Sir Lenny Martin

Chaplain’s Corner
By: Karl Erselius
Have you “Planned
your New Year”
I’m not talking about which party to attend, or which football game
to watch. Rather I’m alluding to planning for the year of 2016. It’s said,
nothing but the simplest impulses gets accomplished without forethought,
which we call a plan. We know this and practice it in relation to the basic
physical necessities of life. But, do we take our spiritual needs as serious?
I would like to encourage us all to set aside time each week in the coming
year to specifically plan our life of, devotion to God, prayer and reading
His word. For help in accomplishing this, let’s go to the best “planning
book” ever written, Scripture.
Proverbs 6:6-7 reads, “Go to the ant, O sluggard; consider her ways
and be wise. Without having any chief officer or ruler, she prepares her
food in summer, and gathers her sustenance in harvest.” The ant is an
example not only because it works so hard, but also because it plans
ahead. Proverbs 14:15, “The simple believe everything, but the prudent
looks where he’s going.” The prudent considers the days to come and
what they’re bringing, and thinks about how best to prepare for them
and use them to accomplish his purposes.
These we do not forget
“Es Selamu Aleikum”
We do not lose the ones we love
They only go before
Where there is everlasting life
Where sorrow is no more..
And there the soul will always live
And peace is everywhere
Proverbs 15:22, “Without counsel plans go wrong, but with many advisers We do not lose the ones we love
God takes them in his care.
they succeed.” Don’t be so independent that you think yourself above
counsel. Read the wisdom of others who have gone before. Proverbs
16:3, “Commit your work to the Lord and your plans will be established.”
Commit it to the Lord. That is always seek the Lord’s guidance and
strength in your planning. Trust His wisdom and not your own. Conclusion
from Proverbs: Careful planning is part of what makes a person wise and
productive. Not to plan is considered foolish and dangerous. This is true,
though Proverbs teach that we do not know what the future may bring.
Proverbs 16:9, “In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.” Is it any wonder that King Solomon, who wrote Proverbs,
was considered to be a man of great wisdom.
The ultimate reason for planning is that God is a God who plans. God is NOT
a God of “knee-jerk” reactions to stimuli, rather His actions are deliberate
and fit into a wise purpose. So we also should approach the most important
things of life with a plan and not just haphazardly. My prayer for us all is that
in the coming year we take time to plan the most important things in our
lives, i.e: time with our family, friends, occupations, and most of all with God.
Without a plan these most important things always seem to get pushed
aside by urgent pressures.
In closing, congratulations go out to Lenny Martin Jr. having been elected
Moolah Potentate for 2016. I’m certain he and Sandy have great plans for
Moolah in 2016.

Meet our new 2016 Potentate
Lenny Martin
Illustrious Sir Lenny Martin was born and raised in St. Louis County. He has
been married to his beautiful wife Sandy Cobb-Martin for 21 years. They
have 2 children Victoria and a son that passed at birth, Trenton John.
They are very active in their local church where they were married and
also where Sandy has been going since she was a child.
After graduating high school Lenny attended the University of Missouri
St. Louis, where he received his Bachelors of Science in Criminology and
Criminal Justice. He is currently employed at Johnson Controls Inc. as a
CSA for the St. Louis branch.
His journey with Shriners Hospital started when he was 1-1/2 years
old. Born with a birth defect affecting his right leg, his parents had to make a tough choice.
With the help of the doctors at Shriners Hospital the decision was made to amputate his right
foot. This did not stop him from doing anything the other kids were doing. It only made him try
harder and find ways to keep up and at time surpass others just because they said he couldn’t.
Lenny spent many years going to the Shrine Circus with his family. His grandma would buy tickets
for the whole family, cousins included, because this was her way of paying back the Shriners who
did so much for her grandson.
In May of 2006, Lenny joined Noble Lodge #684 and in June of that year he was raised a Master
Mason and joined Moolah Temple. Lenny served as Master of the Lodge in 2010 and was also
appointed Outer Guard on the Moolah Divan that same year.
Lenny is a member of the YOMO unit and has given talks about the hospital at numerous events.
His passion is Shriners Hospitals for Children. They have given him the ability to do whatever he
wants, and that’s his wish for the children the hospital is currently helping.
Lenny has proudly served on the Moolah Divan and is honored and humbled to be Moolah’s
Potentate for 2016.
Lenny’s motto this year is “Remember Why”. Why did you become a Shriner? To MAKE A DIFFERENCE
in a child’s life.

Happy Holidays to all and a very prosperous new year.

January Shriner of the Month
John Cordell
Noble Cordell joined the Masonic Lodge # 684 in 2012 and joined the Moolah Shrine the same year. He immediately
became a member of the Air Patrol. He was brought to the Shriners as he has a son who was a patient both in
Minneapolis and St. Louis and John (Mike) felt the need to pay back.
He is also very active with the staff of the hospital as he jumped in with both feet to serve our Shriner children. He
accomplished this by becoming one of the creators of the Santa Party for Shriner Patients. The first party was held in
2013 and was an immediate hit with both the hospital staff and the Moolah Temple. This is one of the main events
that is done in conjunction with both groups.
The party then led Noble Cordell to the TCAA were he has also served 2 years. While a member of the TCAA, he
started the Shriners Donation Program. A new program to raise funds which will directly support our Hospital.
In October a festival which he orchestrated was held at the International Tap House and the funds generated from
this event were donated to the Shriner Hospital Transportation fund. The event while in the early stages promises to
become an annual event.
He has determined that the highlight of any week, is one where he is asked to transport a patient to and from Spirit
of St. Louis Airport or as needed around town.
The Moolah Public Relations Committee is honored to have John Cordell as our 2016 Shriner of the Month for January.

The beginning of a New Year brings change for
many of us. The Patrol is no different. Our new
leadership team is in place under capable guidance
of Captain Patrick Hensley, President Tom Dempski
and his team of officers. The President has asked
me to continue as CAMELS’ TALES editor. Hope
this meets with approval from the majority of you.
The Arab Presentation date will be Friday, February 12th in the Ballroom with the Nomads.
President Tom and team are off to a great start. A
major goal/point of emphasis for the year will be
to increase or ranks, membership. I want to share
a statement from our President that will serve us
all well if a potential candidate asks, “What does
the Patrol do?”
“The Arab Patrol has a proud tradition. Known as
“The Marching 48”, our unit marches in parades, at
Shrine functions and we also compete nationally
against other Shrine marching units. This year, our
theme is “Back To 48” as we seek to encourage new
candidates to learn more about our rich tradition and
join us in our ranks.”
Tom continues:
“Please watch for more information about upcoming
social events to meet our members. You may also
contact Tom Dempski @ 636-795-8825 or tom.
[email protected] for the most up-to-date list
of events. I will be sending out notices, meeting
minutes, last minute event updates in weekly or
bi weekly emails, texts using Moolah’s Constant
Contacts. Watch future issues for information
about a new webpage and announcement of a
membership chairman.”
It’s clear it’s going to be a GREAT year!! Let’s get
behind the energy and enthusiasm of our President.
Go Patrol Go!! I’m just sayin’. Yeah baby!!

Hello, from your Moolah Band:
We have had a fantastic fall concert season and
a great Christmas/Holiday concert time. Playing
for Brunch with Santa, and the party for the
Kids from the hospital, was the best way to conclude a great year for MoolahBand.
The musicianship of our members continues to
improve, and with new music. For the start of
the new year, 2016 promises to be another great
year. The Audiences love the music and show it
with their applause and the comments we receive
after each performance. A suggestion from a resident prompts me to reintroduce a “Military Salute”
at our concerts.
This is where the call goes out to the Nobles and
their family members who play or have played in
the band. With the participation of a few Nobles,
the Band can reclaim the glory years of the past.
We need to make a good showing to exhibit what
Shrinedom is, and how we are contributing to the
Shriners Hospital. Come out and join us, thereby
guaranteeing that our performances are the best
possible. It would give us a more professional
appearance when we celebrate our Centennial
Anniversary in 2019.
Come see us on Wednesday nights at 7:30 and
rekindle the fun you had when you were in the
school band. We are looking for new members,
especially Nobles who are interested in spreading
the word of what Shriners do for the kids by supporting the Shriners Hospitals for Children. You
may be a Noble who is looking for a home where
you can make use of your musical talents! If that
is the case, please give me a call or e-mail and I
will answer any questions you may have.
Also, remember we are also a community band,
so if your wife, child or grandchild plays an
instrument, he or she is welcome to play in the
Band. We meet Wednesday evenings at 7:30 to
practice. Our concerts are Tuesday and Wednesday nights at 7:00.

Kudos to those responsible for organizing the December 12th and 13th Christmas parties for our
kids. They were the greatest kids parties I have
ever had the pleasure of attending since I was
one. The kids went wild; the gifts they received
were of quality and were amazingly plentiful. This
kid thanks you for giving such a wonderful affair
Last December was that type month we hope
can be repeated in all months to come. We were
so busy our voices became synchronized to the
point of excellence. You’ll have to hear us at
one of our future performances to which you are
cordially invited.
This New Year of 2016 finds Santa busying himself preparing for the next Christmas. If he needs
help we can lend him our First Vice President Noble Mark Briguglio and our Second Vice President
Noble Ray Bradley.
All is well in Shrine Land with Nobles going about
their philanthropic work with expectations that
they hope the future holds for our kids in this New
Year. The Chanters future is hinged on the group
of worthy new officers leading us in the direction
of bettering ourselves to a point beyond any
previous year. They’re listed above and we have
hope that this fine bunch of Nobles has more
success than any officers who have ever led the
Chanters in passed years.
This is the time Illustrious Sir David W. Dieckhaus
and his First Lady Christine retire from office.
The Chanters very much appreciate their service
and wish them every future happiness.
We Chanters will like to thank all fellow Nobles for
making our time as pleasurable as it could ever
have been with such a wonderful organization as
our Moolah.
Thank you all, God Bless. We Chanters wish you
that this year be your happiest.

Congrats to all of our new officers and we all
are looking to have another great year for our
Unit. Thanks to our new big Cheese Terry Aaron
(Chopper) for the outstanding Adult Christmas
party. The food as always was really good
and the atmosphere great. The Family party
that Mike Stevens (Mibo) was in charge of was
another huge sucess with many of our members
pitching in before and after to make all of our
families feel welcomed and very well fed.
Our first Trivia Nite will be this Friday. Assuming
this comes out in early January. Hopefully we
have a lot of tables sold which will make all this
effort from everybody worthwhile. I want to say
thanks early for all the door prizes, silent auction
items and especially all of you who has worked
on this project to make it successful. We greatly
appreciate those of you who already donated
your time and for your help during this event.
Coming up fast is the Circus. I know its still a
couple of months away but there are only about
9 Mondays left to get organized and practice the
skits. I do know the guy who runs the skits and
he told me that he really needs all kinds of help
and input this year. So come out to practice and
be involved or just watch and critique what is
going on. Most of the time its the guys who sit
back and watch who have the best ideas. Or at
least they make comments that have us laughing
at ourselves and thats a welcomed thing.
Did you notice who released the ball at Times
Square in New York City this New Years? Of
course it was our own Tom Dolan (Merlin).
Although he did look nervous, pushing a button
couldn't be all that hard. Anyway he got it going
and if you noticed he even gave us a secret sign.
Live in such a way that you would not be
ashamed to sell your parrot to the town gossip!!!!
We would love to have you participate with us.
We always leave ‘em smiling!

The start of a new year brings excitement and
new energies, idea’s, projects, and pranks to
complete. Illustrious Sir Lenny and First Lady
Sandy could think of no better way to start “their”
year than a trip to Poplar Bluff on Saturday January 16th with a bus load of friends for our Installation of Officers. The fun and festivities are open
to invited guest, and according to President-Elect
Scott Rommel the attire for the evening will be
“Hillbilly Fashion”.
Thanks to Illustrious Sir David and First Lady
Christine Dieckhaus along with President Shawn
and Lady Kristie for the wonderful leadership provided in 2015. Tip of the fez to Tony Depriest and
Special Thanks to Bill Jones of Bluff City Beer
and Tom & John Newman of Newman Amusement (even though Tom didn’t do anything) for
our best pool tournament yet. The kids sincerely
need our support and Thank You.
How about the fantastic Television Commercials
and the publicity our hospitals are getting? Max
Montgomery and his staff have set new standards
on spreading the message of the Miracles that
are performed by God through the efforts of our
staff. Boys and girls, God has been very gracious
in the many gifts he has given us, and the least
we can do is help our fellow man who has been
presented with issues in their life. ALL of us, myself included, need to put our egos and individual
differences aside and do what is right. The many
vows, obligations, and oaths we have pledged to
be the “minimum” standards we should base our
goals and actions towards. We need to CONTINUE to pull together, not talk about what we
accomplished in the past, and strive to make this
world a better place. The doors to 21 hospitals
are going to open tomorrow morning and we
have pledged to pay the bills. I know---don’t worry
it will all come in.
God Bless us all, say your prayers, and wear
your fez with pride.

2015 has been a whirl wind and we are jumping
right into 2016 with a bang. We have several
new ladies that we welcomed into Nailah Court
this past year and look forward to the initiation of
many more to come in 2016!
Our Emies have been busy with their ongoing

Carmel this past quarter! Keep an eye out for us this
spring as we’ll be attending local parades!
We are currently getting ready for the Moolah
Circus this is just around the corner! We look
forward to working novelties again. Of course you
can pick up your Circus Ticket from any Moolah
Shriner, but our Nailah ladies will be selling
tickets as well.
Remember, if you see any of our ladies out
and about and would like further information in
joining Ladies Oriental Shrine of North America,
just let us know. We are always looking for new
members to join and always have a petition in
hand! You can also visit our new website; www.

Our January meetings are on Tuesday, January
5 and Tuesday, January 19. Dinner is at 6PM
with Lodge opening at 7PM. On January 5th, we
will be conferring the Entered Apprentice degree
for WB Scott Link’s son Tyler. We conferred the
EA on his other son Clayton (Along with Cast
member Steve Groteke’s son Sam) November

Our meeting on Tuesday, January 19, 2016
will be our official visit and RWB Phil Cole, our
DDGM, will present Brother Robert Grimm with
his 50 year pin.
Congratulations to Noble Lodge Past Master
Lenny Martin on his elevation to Illustrious
Potentate of Moolah Temple. Lenny becomes
our third Past Master to achieve this distinction,
following WB Ron Krueger and RWB Gale
Bennington. It seems like only yesterday when
Lenny was in the dual role of Moolah’s Outer
Guard and Worshipful Master of Noble Lodge!
Thanks to all who helped at the chip program on
Sunday, December 13th in support of the Shriners Hospital Patients Holiday Party. If you’d like
to help out at the next Chip event, please contact
Ken Fontana at [email protected] or call him
at 636-485-2984. Thanks to those who helped
Noble Lodge provide some holiday to cheer to
some families from the Pattonville School District
at the annual Brunch with, especially Wehrenberg
Theaters for some movie tickets and Moolah for
Circus Tickets. The Lodge provided a gift certificate for a holiday meal and toys for the children.
We could also use your help parking cars at the
Family Arena during the Shrine Circus, March
17-20th. It takes over 20 people to handle each
performance, so please consider taking a shift or
two. It’s easy work, directing cars and collecting
parking fees. Contact Tom Cupples at [email protected] (636-685-5555) if you help out
or sign up at http://www.noble684.com.
If you know someone who might be interested in
becoming a Mason, you can be the 1st line signer
of your candidate’s petition. Only 1 signer of a
Masonic petition needs to be from Noble Lodge,
the other signer can be from any Lodge. Keep
this in mind if you have a candidate.
It all starts with you submitting the petition for
your candidate. The petition (and $75 initiation
fee) will be received at our next meeting, and
your candidate will be notified. In most cases he
will be invited to attend the next meeting, meet
with the investigating committee, and then his EA
degree will be scheduled. Regular meetings are
on the first and third Tuesdays of each month.
If you have any questions, contact the Master or
Secretary from the information listed above.
Temple Club
President: Gloria Means
Vice President: Nancy Bradford
Secretary: Kathy Myers
Treasurer: Janet Loesch
Another meeting to enjoy at our Temple Club was
our November meeting with a hint of Winter and
glorious Thanksgiving. A huge thanks to Anna
Declue and Carolyn Going for the hint of days to
come with the autumn colored leaves, napkins
and tiny glasses.
After calling our meeting to order and a sincere
welcome, President Toni led us in Pledging
Allegiance to our Flag, both she and Chris, our
Honorary President, made their introductions.
We are always happy to hear all the news that
Chris brings to us; she never disappoints us.
Their recent trip to Branson, sounded like “I wish
I would have gone”. All of the Christmas plans
sound like “I must attend” and don’t miss one.
Before and during our meeting, we were busy
working on the Christmas cards for the Veteran’s
Home in Chesterfield. Jean Bush provides all of
the necessary supplies and she deserves a great
big THANK YOU for all she does all year to get
this project going for us.
Our business meeting proceeded and then after all
that work, we enjoyed the luscious Thanksgiving
luncheon Jo and her crew prepared for us.
Our annual election then took place and the
results are:
Gloria Means, President
Nancy Bradford, Vice President
Kathy Myers, Secretary
Janet Loesch, Treasurer
Jeanne Smith explained the works of Ambit
Cares and thanked us for all the canned goods
we brought which will go to the Food Pantry in
Valley Park.

We want to extend an invitation to all ladies, 18
and older, to join our wonderful group of ladies
for a sisterhood of philanthropy, good friends, and
good times. We would love to have young women
join us aged 18 to 26 to form a special place in
our Temple designed specifically for them. We
welcome their ideas, energy, and willingness to
help support our temple. As always, all our funds
go to support the Shriners Hospital for children.
Our Supreme Queen, Sharon St. John made her
official visit to SYDYK Temple on November 23
and 24. We had a wonderful banquet and our
ceremonial was beautiful! We visited the hospital
on Tuesday the 24th and we were amazed at the
beauty of the building and the wonderful staff.
The new technology and the research lab were
so high tech! We ended the day with a luncheon
at Mary Ann’s Tea Room in St. Louis City (what a
unique place to dine) and a trip to see the sights
of St. Louis. She is such a lovely lady!
Our Christmas party was a lot of fun! Princess
Joyce Ann Jaillite-Loebner played the part of Mrs.
Santa in a fun activity! Great Job Joyce Ann!
As you know, we are becoming more active in
the Shrine and are supporting their activities. We
would ask all our members to answer the call
when we send out a request for help working
at the Shrine office, or working at the Circus, or
any task that the Shrine asks of us, if it is within
our ability. It is important that we help the Shrine
grow, and in return, our temple grow, and let people know that the Daughters of the Nile are alive
and well and fulfilling our purpose of supporting
Shriners Hospitals for Children and our wonderful
Moolah Shriners.
If you have any questions or would like more
information, please contact Queen Colette or PQ
Mary LaTragna at the numbers above.

The Astros Foundation and the College Classic announce naming rights agreement
with Shriners Hospitals for Children
Houston, TX (December 15, 2015) The Astros Foundation and Shriners Hospitals for Children
have announced a multi-year naming rights agreement for the annual Houston College Classic held
at Minute Maid Park, renaming the tournament the Shriners Hospitals for Children College Classic.
The Astros Foundation will continue to operate the tournament.
The Astros Foundation has also reached an agreement with MLB Network to air all nine games
of the 2016 Shriners Hospitals for Children College Classic. The Astros Foundation will donate $1
from the sale of each ticket directly to Shriners Hospitals as well as provide other fundraising and
awareness opportunities.
The Shriners Hospitals for Children College Classic returns to Minute Maid Park, home of the Houston Astros, Feb. 26-28, 2016. This event is regarded as
one of the top collegiate baseball tournaments in the nation, as it continues to draw fans, top-ranked programs and scouts from every Major League organization each year.
“On behalf of the Astros Foundation, we are grateful to Shriners Hospitals for Children for their generous support of the College Classic,” said Twila Carter,
executive director of the Astros Foundation. “Shriners Hospitals has had a long history with supporting collegiate athletics as a platform to raise awareness
for their mission, making this a perfect fit for both organizations.”
“This event provides a wonderful platform for us to share our story of caring for more than one million children at our 22 Shriners Hospitals locations in the
United States, Canada and Mexico,” said Jerry Gantt, chairman of the board of directors for Shriners Hospitals for Children. “Our agreement with the Astros
Foundation will help us advance our mission of helping children lead active, healthy lives and accept no limitations to the goals they can accomplish.”
The invite only tournament once again boasts a strong lineup, featuring five teams that finished in the top 25 of D1baseball.com’s final rankings in 2015. The
2016 Shriners Hospitals for Children College Classic will include TCU (#4), Arkansas (#9), UL Lafayette (#16), Houston (#22), Rice (#25) and Texas Tech.
Last year’s College Classic featured two of the top three teams ranked in the preseason top 25. Historically, the College Classic has hosted the No. 1 team
in preseason polls six times in tournament history and has hosted two eventual College World Series Champions. Several current Major League players
have played in the Classic, including David Price, Michael Bourn, Gerrit Cole, Mike Leake and Anthony Rendon, to name a few.
For more information about the tournament, please visit Astros.com/CollegeClassic.

Shriners Hospital License Plates
(for Shriners & non-Shriners alike)
Shriners and non-Shriners, here’s an easy way
to help kids in the St. Louis Shriners Hospital
for Children. Just order personalized Shriners
license plates (for your car, motorcycle or
truck up to 12,000 lbs.) and proudly display
them on your vehicle. These official Missouri
state plates feature a Shriner carrying a child,
the word “Shriners” and our “Shriners Help
Kids” message, all in bright colors on a white
background.
Your donation will help with orthopedic
research and treatment at the St. Louis
Shriners Hospital for Children!
You can order in five easy steps: 1. Make a minimum contribution of $25 (one year) or $50 (two years). If you want to make a
larger contribution, just add it to your $25 or $50. Send your check to your nearest Shrine Center. Make your check payable
to MO Shriners License Plate. 2. The Shrine Center will send you two documents 1) An application for personalized plates 2)
An “Emblem Use Authorization Statement.” This is proof that you contributed to the Shriners License Plate Program. It will be
required when you submit your plate application. 3. Complete the “Application for Missouri Personalized and Special License
Plates” The Shriners plates allow 6 spaces for your personalized message. If you want a disabled plate, only 4 characters
are allowed for personalization. All Shriners license plates are considered personalized plates and require payment of a $15
one-year personalized fee, or $30 two-year fee to the Missouri Department of Revenue. 4. Take your “Application for Missouri
Personalized and Special License Plates,” “Emblem Use Authorization Statement” and $15 personalized plate fee to your
local license office. 5. The Dept. of Revenue will order your plates. You will be notified by mail when your plates are available
