El Riad Oriental Band
The El Riad Shrine Circus was a great success this
year with the Oriental Band selling more than 5,000 of the
22,000 hot dogs sold this year. This year’s Top Dog competition was won by Lee Lewis, with second place going
to Monte Derouseau, third place going to Chris Morrison,
and fourth place going to Joe Alick. Looks like the old
timers are going to have to watch out as the new guys are
taking the field.
The Oriental Band made a strong showing at the El
Riad Spring Ceremonial as we impressed the crowd with
our ability to march, sing, and not fall down though granted not all at the same time.
Practice has begun in earnest for the ASOB Midwest
Shrine competition to be held at the 2015 MSA session in
Marquette WI, from August 3–6. While it is unclear at this
time if we will have competition at this year’s MSA session
the Oriental Band will still be going in force to show our
colors and hopefully encourage the formation or revitalization of other Oriental Bands in the MSA. Due to the length
of the trip we will be leaving on Tuesday, August 2 and
returning on Sunday August 8. There are planned stops
and activities along the way to break up the monotony of the
long bus ride. If you are interested in finding out more about
the planned festivities, you should come on down to a regular
Thursday meeting and practice.
As of this writing the Otis Open Golf Tournament will be
held on Thursday May 26, at the Bridges Golf Course in
Beresford, SD. The proceeds of the tournament will go to benefit the Ladder of Smiles which is the ASOB program for supporting the Shrine Hospitals.
Parade Season is upon us so mark your calendars and
make arrangements with your boss at home (and your boss at
work) to attend the following parades: The Potentates Parade
in Hills, MN on June 10; the Czech Days parade in Tabor, SD
on June 17; The Booster Days parade in Valley Springs, SD
on July 9; and the D-Days parade in Vermillion, SD on
October 8. The Oriental Band will also be hosting weddings at
the Shrine on June 24 and on August 13.
“When people try to rain on your parade...pee on theirs.”

El Riad Outhouse Unit #1 and Back Forty Boys
The Hillbilly Reunion Reunion (installation of new members to the Clan) was held at Don Jensen’s farm. We anticipate between 15 to 20 new “brothers” assuming they passed
the rigorous testing placed before them. And the feast provided by our fellow Hillbillies from Mitchell is something to
look forward to as well.
The Back Forty Boys were asked to perform and be a
part of the Make-A-Wish event on Saturday, May 14.
Although not a Shrine sponsored event, we received the
okay from Pote Tom to be there and thoroughly enjoyed
being a part of the activities.
Later into the month of May (Saturday, May 21) we had
Hospital Days at the Twin Cities Shrine Hospital. All Nobles /
family members were encouraged to be there to see what
Shrinedom is all about. The Back Forty Boys (B40B) were
there (thankfully we were all up and at the Shrine at 5:00
a.m. to catch the bus. Participation from our newly installed
Nobles (Spring Ceremonial – May 7th) was strongly encouraged.
Looking into the future, the Outhouse Unit has parades
to attend and there has even been talk of Outhouse Races.
The summer agenda for the B40B:
• Corn Palace / Mitchell, SD – June 23
• Union County Fair / Alcester – July 30
• Sioux Empire Fair / Sioux Falls – August 13 & 14
• Turner County Fair / Parker – August 18
Please consider membership into the Outhouse Unit or
any other unit for that matter.

El Riad Roadrunners
We are continuing year 2016 of the Roadrunner trips with
great success due to our incredible Nobles of El Riad. We
have had some bad weather for some of our trips but thanks
to our drivers, the trips have been safe and successful. Our
patients and families are very grateful for our service given by
our Nobles and their gratefulness is expressed and that is
received with appreciation. We had six trips in March. One
overnight trip was driven by Jon Haverly and Freddie
Contreras. One day trips were driven by John Pudwill and
Dana Schmidt, Jon Hoecherl and John Pudwill. One trip the
parents drove in themselves as we had no drivers. Trips to
Omaha drivers were Howard Greer and Ken Steele, Ron
Goergen and Dustin Johnson. For April we had three trips.
Overnight trip drivers were Dustin Johnson and Ethan Jones.
Omaha trip drivers were Doug Kristensen and Bruce
Jorgensen, Bruce Jorgensen and Doug Kristensen. Two trips
one day after the other. Thank you so much. Thank you to all
our drivers. We have six trips scheduled for May and the drivors are signed up for five of them. By the time you read this
we will have had our spring meeting and breakfast on May 11.

El Riad Blast & Cast
Ceremonial was May 7 and the Blast and Cast unit has
raised money for the new x-ray machine for the twin cities hospital by raffling off a custom made AR-15 donated by Roger
Mcquisten of SodakTac. We were able to sell almost 800 tickets and all the money was donated at the ceremonial.
Thank you to all members selling tickets especially Josh
Jurgens, Jeff Landborg and Rolland Stolsmark for setting up
the raffle and following through to completion.
Our blast and cast sponsored concealed and carry gun
class will be taking a break for the summer and classes will
resume in the fall. Coming up for the unit will be our annual
fishing trip with dates to be determined.
Also thank you to all our members who worked at the circus selling hot dogs, ushering, and helping out other units.

El Riad Ritualistic Unit
34 Nobels were created as El Riad Shriners at the
Spring Ceremonial conducted on Saturday May 7, 2016.
We had four new actors on stage in new parts for this
performance. A couple of tech glitches occurred, and a few
lines were twisted and a couple of words dropped. Only
those among the cast really knew the glitches happened. It
is a matter of performance pride. Nevertheless, our performance was a solid “B.” Our newly created Shriners seemed
impressed with the show.
We missed our long-time time unit member, PP Del
Kroon, in his role as Muezzin, as he is recovering from a serious illness. He and his Lady, Marlys, are in our thoughts and
prayers.
New Director Richard Hagler, set a new sartorial standard for Ritualistic Directors, wearing a formal black tuxedo,
with patent leather shoes!
The unit has procured new backdrop curtains for the
areas behind the illusion and the Alchemist’s tent. The
mechanical challenge is to figure out a deployment and
retraction mechanism.
Our illusion, is a source of wonderment to all who see it.
If you have not seen it recently, please attend the Fall
Ceremonial. That ceremonial, according to Ill. Sir Tom
Anderson, will be open to wives, family and significant others. This is the first time that has occurred since 1999.
The Inspired Charge, played by Joe Brown gave the
best performance of that part I have ever seen. That is a reiteration of my last several reports. Joe picked it up another
notch and outdid himself. Emerging from the tomb to music
entitled Song of the Desert by Ernst Reijseger & Mola Syla,
an exotic contemporary cello piece. Noble Brown weaves a
familiar tale about equality among people of all faiths.
We are extremely fortunate to have three professional
stage, lighting and sound unit members: Garret Hansen,
Bruce Crawford, and Scott Denney.
Very few Shrine Temples have live music as we do, with
the El Riad Chanters and the El Riad Band. Our ceremonial
would not be the same without these units.
Yours in Faith

El Riad Ski Unit
El Riad Ski Unit had another great trip to Deadwood and
Terry Peak in March. We had a great mix of people, spouses, and friends all making for a interesting and enjoyable
weekend!
The weather was warm so we had spring ski conditions
with 60 degree days and plenty of sunshine. We had fun on
and off the slopes. On the slopes, snow conditions were
great, off the slopes we had the oasis room at the Hickok
Best Western in Deadwood with cool beverages and plenty
of food. Everyone who attended was able to relax, ski, sitesee, and play a few games of chance. The big winners were
the Brothers Maxwell, with Paul and Scott shooting craps
and Freddie Contreras on the one arm bandit. We make this
trip every year and will make sure to let others know about
trip next year all are welcome.
El Riad Ski Unit is a social unit and we meet from
October through March. We also will be planning a summer
get together. If you would like to know more or be a member
of El Riad Ski Unit contact Tony Bachman at 201-5998.
Spread the joy!

We are sorry to say that
Nobles sometimes pass
away without our

the recognition of their
passing. Please assist in

El Riad Fife & Drum
I am a little tardy in happily reporting our latest little Fifer
in Kyler Joseph Lipp. Kyler clocked in at 7.6 lbs and 20.5" in
length on March 29. Noble Jordan and beautiful new mother
Teresa could not be more proud. So happy for these guys!!!
However, I am timely in reporting a huge congratulations to the Fife & Drum contingent that dispensed and
dispersed pop on the upper west and east sides during
the circus. Selling pop is a physically demanding activity and I feel our conditioning really pays off during circus time. Some of us are older with a protruding middle area, yet we power through each session. Thank
goodness for the enthusiasm we generate at the
Legion and a big THANK YOU for all the members that
helped at the circus!!
I am happy to report our Spring Ceremonial contribution totaled $8,000. This is an impressive figure by
any measure for an El Riad group and I can tell you
each Fife & Drum member is proud to be a part of this
amount. We work hard to give back to our beloved philanthropy.
Also, I am happy to report our upcoming parade and
social season is on full trajectory. We kick off the year
with our most important appearance, that being the
Memorial Day service at the VA Hospital. I cannot share
enough how meaningful it is to honor our veterans. This is
an all hands on deck event and we always have a solid
turnout.
We then press on to the Buffalo Days Parade in Luverne
followed by a family pizza party. Nothing like a short parade
route, then some pizza, beverages, and time with our families. With all the human regeneration our group has been
doing lately, we sure have plenty of kids around and that is
great to see. The following weekend is the Pote's Parade followed by a group rush party at John and Sherry Archer's.
Nobody can close a new member deal like John and when
he's on his home turf, he is especially impressive.
Our big trip this year will be to our Okoboji ballyhoo hosted by Dave and Barb Daily. This is such
fun and boating around to the different bars and
playing makes us feel like rock stars. We segue
from that to Mike and Lorna Fitzgerald's for their
annual garden party on July 23. We crescendo
our summer season with our annual pool party at
Darwin and Bev Gunderson's on August 13. This
is a legendary event and I argue one of the top five
social scenes in the greater Sioux Falls area.
As you can see, the Fife & Drum are set for
great fun and very proud to represent the Nobles of
El Riad in all we do!
Respectfully submitted,
Bruce Norton
El Riad Sprint Cars
Hard to believe the circus is already behind us. Once
again the Sprint Cars ran the cotton candy and snow cone
booth on the upper east side. The Sprint Car members and
their ladies stepped up and manned that
booth for nine shows, “thank you” to all that
helped. It really does take a team effort to
cover all the aspects of the circus and
Reid Jensen and Larry Miller did a wonderful job as chairman and co-chair of
the circus.
The following week we
brought the cars out of hibernation for the Loyalty Day
Parade in Brandon. Prior to
the parade we met at Todd
and Stacie Long’s house for
Tony’s chicken and fixens,
note to the unit, we do not
need 120 pieces of chicken.
We ran through the parade and
simply amazed the crowd with our car
handling abilities. We then headed back to the trailers but not before stopping back at the Longs to pick up a
14
bag of chicken to bring home. Side note, this parade was
also the test for the new motors we will be putting in the
cars. Mark Richard ran with one of the new motors and
everything seemed to go as planned, so now we
can start installing them into the other cars.
This will keep us busy, but at least it will
give us more time to give Corey Terwee
some sh… (by the way did you see how
sexy he was in those white coveralls? A
regular David Hasselhoff).
Like everyone else, I’m sure, the Sprint
Cars will be busy in the upcoming months
making appearances at the local parades.
You will find us at Luverne, MN and Hills, MN the
first two weeks of June for sure and I am unable to
go out any farther than that because the rest
of our schedule has not been set. Until
next time.
Four wheels on the street to help
kids get back on their feet.

Shrine Circus
The El Riad Circus season started with great success in
Chamberlain on April 18 and 19. The crowds lined up around
the building to fill it almost to capacity for each of the four
shows. The Rose Bud Shrine Club, with assistance from family, friends and members from the Mitchell Shrine Club, once
again hosted an event to make all the members of El Riad
proud.

Kent Morstad Party
Wednesday April 6, 2016
We had the great privilege to serve in the celebration of our
past potentate and community leader, Mr. Kent Morstad. No
one knew which birthday we were celebrating only that it is an annual event.
The support of our chefs was fantastic!
We demonstrated professionalism and
proficiency in serving our guests. The
service included pork and beef sandwiches, tortilla chips with cheese and
salsa sauce, jumbo shrimp with cocktail sauce, a large variety of fruit and of
course deviled eggs.
Culinary Fellowship
To better know our fellow Culinary Chefs, we are answering
some questions to reveal something of ourselves to promote
fellowship in a fun, fact filled way.

Cactus Supporter?
The $100 Million Dollar Club is a way for Shriners and non-Shriners alike to provide a gift
of hope for a child in need. It’s an excellent opportunity to personally participate in the “World’s
Greatest Philanthropy” – Shriners Hospitals for Children.
The Shriners operate 22 hospitals in North America dedicated to treating children with orthopaedic problems and burn injuries. There are 18 orthopaedic hospitals, three burn hospitals
and one Shriners Hospital that provides orthopaedic, burn care and spinal cord injury care. All
care and services provided by Shriners Hospitals are totally without cost to the patient or family.
Since the founding of Shriners Hospitals in 1922, about $5.5 billion has been spent to provide quality and compassionate medical care to more than 675,000 children with orthopaedic
problems, severe burn injuries or spinal cord injuries. Most of these services are paid for by
the Shriners Hospitals for Children endowment fund.
Without this fund, Shriners Hospitals would not be able to ensure optimum and compassionate patient care. In order to meet the needs of thousands of children in need of the expert
care Shriners Hospitals provide, the endowment fund must continue to grow during these
times of increasing cost of medical care.
Since approximately 95 percent of the annual Shriners Hospitals for Children operating
budget will be spent in direct support of the 22 hospitals, your gift to its endowment fund is a
gift to one of the world’s “purest” philanthropies.

Chamber Milestone
Ribbon Cutting
On April 21 at the 2016 circus, the Sioux Falls Area
Chamber of Commerce honored the El Riad 75th
Anniversary of our Shrine Circus with a milestone ribbon
cutting. The following is how the proclamation read:
“El Riad Shrine is a fraternity based on fun, fellowship
and the Masonic principles of brotherly love, relief and truth.
They have been an active participant and strong
supporter of the Sioux Falls business community for the
past 128 years.
Part of the fun and fellowship that the Shrine brings to
Sioux Falls is most eveident in their largest community out
reach event – namely the Shrine Circus. For the past 75
years, El Riad Shrine has brought the thrill and excitement of
the “greatest show on earth” to the Sioux Falls area.
In recognition of their dedication to creating memories
and continuning the tradition, we are here today to recognize their diamond anniversary milestone.”

Members of El Riad, the Sioux Falls Chamber of Commerce,
and Sioux Falls Mayor, Mike Huether, were part of the shrine
circus milestone ribbon cutting.

CHAMBERLAIN — People with developmental disabilities in the Chamberlain area will have the opportunity to
dance to a day specifically for them.
Approximately 70 people are registered to attend a
special prom event scheduled for May 28 at the AmericInn
in Chamberlain.
"In the past, a lot of them didn't have the opportunity to
go to a prom, so a lot of them I've talked to are excited to
go," event organizer Jessica Meagher said. "It just gives
them something special to do."
There will be a dinner provided, a dance, a photo
booth and a grand march, all things Meagher wanted to
incorporate to create an authentic experience for attendees. The ballroom at the hotel will be decorated in a
"Hollywood Nights" theme.
The idea, Meagher said, is a spinoff of a similar event
put on by the Shriners Hospitals for Children — Twin Cities
in Minneapolis. Meagher's daughter, Morgan, was formerly
a patient at the hospital, where a prom event was held for
the patients. In past years, Meagher and her boyfriend,
Dennis Reed, sponsored a fishing tournament in
Chamberlain, with the funds raised being donated to help
put on the prom in Minneapolis. But, this year, Meagher put
the money toward creating the same opportunity for people
in South Dakota.
"The community has been really supportive in our
fundraising, and people have stepped up to help,"
Meagher said.
People of any age with a developmental disability are
invited and encouraged to attend, and nobody will be
turned away, Meagher said. In fact, she said there are children as young as 10 years old planning to attend, as well
as adults well into their 70s, and plenty in between.
With such a wide age gap comes one problem,
Meagher said, and that is finding music everyone will
enjoy. So, while attendees are searching for dresses, tuxes
and corsages leading up to the prom, they are also choosing and submitting their favorite tunes to be played
throughout the night. That, in turn, gives everybody at least
a sampling of what they want to hear, Meagher said.
"There's certainly a wide variety," Meagher said. "It's
something really unique."
Highlighting that she hasn't heard of any similar events
in the region, Meagher said the event is a special opportunity for people with special needs, or who need special
accommodations, to experience a prom, whether that be
for the first time or not. If all goes well in May, she hopes to
make it an annual event.
Anyone interested in attending the event should call
Meagher at (605) 234-4007.
