Potentate’s Message
Lacey, Johnston Count y Nobles and Ladies and the Animated Animals. The very next weekend, the Animated Animals
traveled to Burlington, NC and represented Sudan in Amran’s Fall Ceremonial parade held in conjunction with the
civic Christmas parade.
Miss Addison Davis is our 2014 Shrine Bowl Queen
and her recent coronation at her school was a heartwarming experience which created a lot of excitement with her
classmates, school staff and of course local Shriners. Plan to
attend the Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas on December 20th
when she is escorted on the field at Gibbs Stadium-Wofford
College in Spartanburg, SC. If you would like to participate
as a volunteer please call our business office for the contact
information.
Nobles & Ladies:
Lady Susan and I would
like to thank you for a memorable, fun and exciting 2014!
It would not have been possible without the dedication
and support of the large
contingent of Nobles, Ladies, fraternal Brothers and
Sisters and friends who were
there all along the way.
It began with the Winter
Ceremonial with a surprise
visit by Miss Nicole
Dunn who was my
inspiration and an Angel that I had met 9
years earlier that started me on this journey
and presented me my
Potentate’s gavel as I
began my final turn
on this pathway.
The first Sudan
Shiners Smoke on the
River BBQ cook-off
rose from the embers
in September, on the beautiful Neuse River. The event was a
great success and will doubtless continue for years to come.
Congratulations again to the Sudan Cooligans, Sudan Van
Patrol and Wilson Count y Shrine Cub who placed amongst
tough competition. This dream became realit y thanks to
Arthur Broome (Chef Crew) and Steve Marshburn (Van Patrol).
This annual pilgrimage to the Masonic Homecoming
Festival in Oxford began with a dinner attended by the NC
Shrine Divans and our NC Grand Lodge officers to meet
their counterparts and continue the strong fraternal relationship we all enjoy in our state. Sudan converged on the area
and was there in strength with the greatest number of shrine
units performing for the communit y.
The Fall Ceremonial; what a part y to close out 2014 by
going Loco in JoCo. The Johnston Count y Shrine Clubs Nobles and Ladies went all out with the hospitalit y and planned
events at HQ and The Farm. Thank you to our Sudan clubs
and units that cooked many great delicacies in 30 degree
temperatures at the Friday casual night. It was definitely a
hit complemented by music and karaoke provided by one
of the local DJ celebrities. Saturday hospitalit y events and
Too Much Sylvia were Too Much (fun)! Fayetteville Shrine
Club presented a beautiful van to add to our transportation
fleet. It will be another gathering that will never be forgotten! Thanks to our ceremonial chairman Larry Barnes, Lady
January 2015
A special thank you to:
• Our office and temple staff for their dedication, friendly
and professional service.
• Sudan Divan & Trustees for their leadership, expertise
and unselfish contribution of time and support to our
temple and philanthropy. I’ll never forget the cell phone
calls and raised watches while speaking at the podiums.
• The 2014 Ceremonial Chairmen, Committee members,
Clubs, Units, Members, Masons and Ladies that put on
unforgettable ceremonials that will forever be in all
of our thoughts and conversations.
• Closer to Home - Arab Shrine Club, Sudan Drum &
Bugle Corps, Shriners Choo Choo, Ladies of the Arab
Shrine Club, Brunswick Count y Shrine Club, Sudan
Thunderbolts, Pender Count y Shrine Club, Duplin
Count y Shrine Club, Sudan Van Patrol, Brothers and
Sisters of the Order of the Eastern Star of NC, the Fireballs and all who assisted in many ways throughout this
and past years.
• All Sudan Shriners Nobles and Ladies. All clubs and
units that participated in the hospitalit y at the casual
night celebrations.
• Illustrious Sir Roland Britt, First Lady Jamie, Amran
2
Red Fez
Divan and their Ladies for the many hours of fun and
fellowship.
• Noble John Collins – Potentate’s Chief Aid for the many
miles, smiles and stories and his Lady Diane.
• To my wife, Lady Susan, whose involvement, support and
love was 24 hours a day. Her inspiration is contagious!
The Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas will have been played
by the time this is published and the winner again as in years
past will be the children. Don’t forget to honor these young
men who were selected to play in this prestigious game, by
inviting them and their family to your clubs.
We have not done well in our new membership and restoration of old members. At the time of this message we have
203 NPD’s, 135 deaths with only 72 new Nobles created for
the year. Every one of us has to work on new nobles. We
fell this year to below 5000 in members for the first time in
many years. We have just about any t ype of trade or profession in our membership but we have not yet conquered and
found the answer to attract Qualit y Masons to become Qualit y Shriners.
As we move into 2015 and new officers take office, please
give us an update on your Public Relations Representative.
This program is working extremely well but we need to maintain continuit y to keep our nobilit y up to date with information. Thanks to all of our PR nobles we have now for your
hard work.
My first year as your Recorder has been rewarding. I
would like to thank everyone who has assisted me, given me
guidance and made this a very enjoyable experience. Please
make every effort to attend your Blue Lodge and God Bless
you all as we work to make “Love to the Rescue” a realit y.
We wish the best to our Potentate-Elect Jerry Tillett and
Lady Tanya in 2015. To Outer Guard, Lou Smith and Lady
Pat, we wish you an exciting journey, thank you for your support and enjoy the ride. It has been an honor and a privilege
for me and Susan to serve Sudan Shriners as your Potentate
and First Lady.
Thanks for the memories!
“Shriners and Their Ladies Making Dreams Realities”
Recorder’s Message
Best wishes to all for a
prosperous and Happy New
Year. The 2014 shrine year
moved along at a rapid pace
and we are now about to
start our 99th year as Sudan
Shriners. We have had a
good year because we have
helped many new patients
and been able to raise those
much needed funds, not
only for Shriners Hospitals
for Children, but also funds
needed to transport the children to SHC’s. We were fortunate enough this year to buy another hospital van for our
Roadrunners and thanks go to the Fayetteville Shrine Club,
which presented a van at the November Ceremonial. Go to
our website and check out the color scheme on that vehicle.
Johnston Count y Shrine Club put on a fantastic Fall
Ceremonial. Congratulations and kudos to Noble Larry
Barnes and all the ladies and nobles. The entire weekend
was extremely well planned. The hard work in preparation
did not go unnoticed.
Units and clubs activities have filled the calendar
throughout the year. Your work in the months of October,
November and December saw the bulk of the charitable fundraisers. The 85 parades conducted from December 1 – 15
saw a total of 185 units participating. Some of the larger
parades had 7 and 8 Sudan units. This continues to be one
of best public relations efforts in broadcasting our SHC’s.

Yours in Faith,
George L. Raecher, Recorder

A President’s Message
& Membership
in the Middle West, the Shriners will include most of
the prominent citizens. The Shriners are committed
to communit y service and have been instrumental in
countless public projects throughout their domain. “Being a Shriner is a privilege, not a Masonic right. Too often Nobles forget that they are supposed to be pillars in
their communities. Nobles of the Shrine should donate
not just money but time and energy o the improvement
of their communit y and the world. Giving time, talent
and funds helps the communit y and the world, more
so it improves the Noble. Our Fraternit y has a rich
history of great Nobles; do not besmirch the fraternit y
with unethical or immoral activities. Leave no doubt as
to your standing in the communit y by avoiding activit y
that may be deemed unsavory. Spend your time with
upstanding members of our communit y not those of
questionable backgrounds. We are the living examples
of Shrinedom. As such we must conduct our lives to
be the example that Masons and non-Masons want to
emulate. Thank you Noble Alan for these words.
The following was published by the Wilson Count y
Shrine Club President, Noble Alan Winstead. It contains some very important words and thoughts to ponder
as we all work on our membership initiative our membership goals for this year are below what we projected.
At the time of this article we still have 200 NPD’s with
an additional 135 falling to the Black Camel. As you
may recall, we want new members but we need Qualit y
Masons to become Qualit y Shriners. Let’s not sacrifice
less than a Qualit y Mason just to attain a number goal.
I would think every Sudan Shrine Club could find at
least one Qualit y Mason for the January 2015 Winter
Ceremonial. As your Recorder I emphatically believe in
the following.
“A 1938 Life magazine article described the Shriners
as “among secret lodges the No. 1 in prestige, wealth
and show”, and stated that “in the t ypical cit y especially

Shrine Club Celebrates 20th
The South Brunswick Islands Shrine Club celebrated its 20th anniversary this year. They were chartered on October 12, 1994. The original petition to
charter lists 36 names. By the 10th anniversary the
membership grew to 157 members.
Initially, meetings were held in borrowed space
such as the Lion’s Paw Club House or the Elk’s Lodge.
Noble Frank Somersett offered his garage for the
meeting place and it became the “home” of the club.
In 1999, a lot was purchased from Noble William
(Billy) and Jean Russ at 4911 Old Shallotte Rd, which
today is the home of the club. The Russ family later
returned the purchase price of the land and has recently been recognized for their generosit y. Ground
was broken in 2000 and the first meeting in the building was held in 2001. That meeting was hastily scheduled because some shrine dignitaries wanted to see
the new club. The only problem was no electricit y
in the building so the club was decorated with drop
cords.
The SBISC is very proud of the fact that two nobles have served as the Potentate of Sudan Shriners.
PP Albert Parker in 1988 and PP Steve Norris in 2012.
The SBISC has three important bodies. First, the
Shrinette ladies who support the club with day-to-day
activities. The Sudan Daredevils were chartered in
2004 and the Hillbillies #2 in January 2009. Both
units are very active in parades and fundraising activities.
Today 29 children in the Brunswick Count y area
are being treated at our SHC.
Members of the William & Jean Russ Family receiving a Certificate of Appreciation for the generosit y
of the Russ family to the SBISC. Making the presentation is Noble Larry Andrews, a charter member of
the club.

Queen Named for the 2014
Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas
Noble Winford “Wink” Dillard a member of Egypt
Shriners in Lakeland, Florida was selected as “Shriner
of the Month” – October 2014 by Shriners International. His photo and a short story on his selection can be
found in Shriners Village. There is a little twist to go
along with this story. Noble “Wink” as he is known,
was created here in Sudan in 1998. He moved to Lakeland in 2005 and became a member of Egypt Shriners in
Tampa. He was actually submitted for this prestigious
award for his dedication and hard work for the hospital
and the fraternit y, just like he did when he lived here.
Noble Wink has maintained his Sudan membership.
He was a member of Wayne Shrine Club, the Sudan
Mini Rigs and is the Past Master of Goldsboro Lodge
#634 in Goldsboro in 2002. Congratulations “Wink”
from all of us Sudan Nobles!
Shrine Bowl Queen Addison with father and
mother; Scott and Roxie.
Miss Addison from Reigelwood, has been
named as the 2014 Shrine Bowl Queen. Addison is eight years old and attends Acme – Delco
Elementary School in Delco, (Columbus Count y).
She became a patient in January 2008 and was
diagnosed with spinal bifida. She has had 20 appointments at our Shriners Hospitals for Children
- Greenville for treatment. She will participate in
the festivities at the Shrine Bowl on December 20,
2014 in South Carolina. This is a great honor for
this beautiful young lady.

SoulShine Band
Pizazz Band
Wilmington’s SoulShine traces its origins back
to Hoggard High School where the members, all
Port Cit y natives, were classmates. Davie Waggett
(vocals and percussion), Donald Smith (drums)
and Rick McDuffie (guitar) were all members of the
award-winning Grade VI Symphonic Band at Hoggard. Donald and Davie were simultaneously traveling a parallel rock and roll track with Rick Howell
(bass) in bands like Night Drive, Croatan and Lush,
while Rick McDuffie was covering the high-societ y
gigs with Pendulum and The Ethics. Davie did a
stint on drums with Nantucket and Rick Howell
played for a time with a later version of The Grass
Roots. College, career and child-rearing kept the
boys from pursuing full time music careers, but
they found time to keep playing and honing their
music skills through the years. Along the way they
have shared the stage, individually, with The Charlie Daniels Band, Exile, Goose Creek Symphony
and The Kentucky Headhunters, among others.
These good friends reunited in 2013, along with
keyboardist (and fellow Hoggard alum) Tony Greer,
to form SoulShine.
SoulShine is made up of five guys who are true
“soul brothers”- they love each other, their audiences, and they’re excited about what they do! Whether
you love soul, beach, Motown, classic rock or “all of
the above”, SoulShine can deliver it, with a punch!
With over 115 years combined experience entertaining crowds across the nation, the Pizazz Band is
one of the finest bands in the cover music industry
with an emphasis on excellence! The Pizazz Band sizzles with the energy that pounds your heart and gets
your body and feet moving with Soul, Funk, Beach,
Country and Rock. You will lose yourself in the
romantic soulful voice of Lead Man Kent Zimmerman and melt to your knees with Mark Davidson’s
gravelly, smokey vocals and fluid guitar. The master
of the keys, Steve Edmunds (aka) Mr. Wonderful is
always putting some soul in it. Chip “Barefootin”
Johnson keeps the beat going alive in your head with
the pounding and finesse of the drums. With over
30+ years of experience, Kenny Hancock is considered to be one of the best bassists on the east coast
and will groove your soul into a trance. The Pizazz
Band is Honored to perform for Sudan Shriners, a
Fantastic Organization!

Meet Our 2014-15 National Patient Ambassadors
Joe Dertinger of Waconia, Minn., and Katie
Ladlie of Troy, Mo., have been selected as
the health care system’s national patient
ambassadors for 2014- 2015. The announcement
was made after the premiere of their video,
“Born to Inspire” during the July 2014 Imperial
Session of Shriners International in Minneapolis.
Every year, Shriners Hospitals for Children® chooses
two national patient ambassadors to represent the
thousands of children who receive care at the health
care system every year. The Ambassadors share
their stories to inspire others and raise awareness of
Shriners Hospitals for Children.
Joe: A Champion Skier
Joe was born with an unusual condition that involved
all four of his extremities. He had a short tibia and no
fibula on his right leg, and only three toes on his right
foot. His left ankle has an unusual “ball and socket”
type of joint. He was also born with only two fingers
and a thumb on each hand, and the fingers on the
right hand were webbed together.
At our Twin Cities hospital, Joe was initially seen
by an orthopaedic surgeon and a hand specialist,
who recommended surgeries to separate the fingers
on his right hand and amputation of the right foot
so that a prosthesis would fit better. Over time,
Joe received physical and occupational therapy at
Shriners Hospitals for Children, combined with
lots of encouragement. That, and having a twin
sister to keep up with, helped Joe continue to
make progress.
Joe, now 18, has been involved in adaptive skiing
for many years. In the last two seasons at the
national competition in Park City, Utah, Joe has won
the Men’s Junior National overall Alpine Skiing title.
He is currently training for the Giant Slalom World
Cup and the 2018 winter Paralympic games, which
will be held in South Korea.
While Joe is passionate about his sport, he also
wants to give back and help others with similar
conditions and has enrolled in Century College’s
Prosthetics Technology program; he is set to start in
the fall of 2014.
Katie: An inspiration to Others
Relatively quickly after her birth, Katie was
diagnosed as having a vascular malformation, a very
rare condition. She has been a patient at our St.
Louis hospital since she was 2 years old.
Katie struggled with severe knee pain and other
difficulties for years. By the time she was 12 years
old, her knee had deteriorated to the point that her
physicians gave her two options, knee fusion or
amputation above the knee. Young Katie bravely
determined to have the amputation as this would
free her from the pain and from the anchor that held
her back, which is how she viewed her leg.
Shortly after the surgery, Katie was introduced
to adaptive sports, which was a turning point. She
became very active and is no longer sitting on the
sidelines in pain. And then she discovered public
speaking, and became a patient ambassador for our
St. Louis hospital.
Katie, now 16, hopes to be able to give back and
inspire others through her new role as a national
patient ambassador.
We know that both Katie and Joe will do exactly
that in the coming months.

Erin’s Story
Smoke On The River 2014
Erin Davis Tennant was born on October 10, 2007
with spina bifida (tethered cord). She underwent her
first surgical procedure at five weeks old to remove the
fatt y tissue, attached to her cord, preventing normal
growth. This surgery was performed at Duke Children’s
Hospital and was a success. Erin had no other problems,
until she turned three years old when her left foot started turning inward. Doctors at Duke tried to straighten
Erin’s foot, but the surgery did not work, and her foot
kept turning inward even further.
After much prayer, Erin’s Dad was working on a job,
which had him cross paths with a local Sudan Shriner,
Cleveland Woolard. Cleve was told about Erin’s issue,
and made a single phone call. With that one call she
had an appointment the next week at Shriners Hospitals
for Children - Greenville, with Dr. Peter Stasikelis. Dr.
Pete told us up front, surgeons can only do so much,
and often cannot undo what the greatest physician has
made. The surgery went better than expected. Today,
Erin needs a brace, but has a straight foot, all thanks to
the Sudan Shriners and the wonderful people at SHC
in Greenville, SC.
In between surgeries, Erin was often confined to a
wheelchair, or on crutches. This didn’t slow her down
though. Erin’s church sponsors UpWard Soccer, an organization, which ironically is located, near Greenville,
SC. At first we were not sure about letting Erin play
soccer, with crutches, but the Upward leader thought it
would be fine. Erin turned out to be the team’s leading
scorer. Upward Sports is faith based and when coaches
asked the children at one practice, what they were thankful for, Erin’s response was, “I’m thankful for my leg”.
We are all very thankful for God and Sudan Shriners, Dr. Pete, and the nurses and staff at Shriners Hospitals for Children - Greenville, South Carolina.
On the night of September 26 and 27th there
were some really good odors down near the river.
Sudan’s 1st annual “Smoke on the River” was a
total success. Eleven Teams from around Sudan
competed for the honors of having the Best of the
Best in Barbeque. Three impartial judges labored
over the entries, tasted a lot of barbeque and made
their rulings. First Place went to the Sudan Cooligans from New Bern, 2nd Place to the Van Patrol
from Onslow Count y Shrine Club and 3rd Place
to the Wilson Count y Shrine Club. The all night
event saw some really serious work and great fellowship shared by the nobles and their ladies as
they worked hard on their product. The event was
very well attended and a lot of plates were sold. I
would venture to say that “Smoke on the River”
might just happen again next year! Thanks go out
to Noble Arthur Broome, Chef’s Crew Director
and his group for managing and organizing this
fundraiser.

SHRINE FUNDRAISING
POLICIES & PROCEDURES
SHRINE FUNDRAISING
INTRODUCTION
approved by the Temple Potentate after receiving the advice of
the Temple attorney.
All fundraising promotional materials (including Temple
publications) must include a statement indicating the major
entity benefited by the funds [Statement of Purpose].
Because Shriners have been the driving force behind Shriners
Hospitals for Children, it has become natural to associate the Fez
with this charity. However, the Shrine of North America and
Shriners Hospitals are separate and distinct legal corporations.
Shriners Hospitals for Children is incorporated in the state of
Colorado, and it operates 22 hospitals. Its purpose is to provide
medical care to children with disabilities without regard to race,
creed, sect or nationality. The treatment for the children is
provided at no cost. This is the Charitable corporation.
The Shrine of North America is incorporated in the state
of Iowa, and it presently has 195 unincorporated fraternal
associations in Canada, Mexico, the United States and Republic
of Panama. We know them as Shrine Temples. This is the
Fraternal corporation.
A study done by Shriners International Headquarters found
that Shrine Temples conduct more than 2,000 fundraising
activities annually. Many of these fundraisers are strictly for the
Temples – and this is perfectly acceptable. Other fundraising
activities are for the benefit of Shriners Hospitals for Children –
and this is also perfectly acceptable.
However, the individual purchasing a ticket, product, etc., or
the donor, should be advised, in advance, how the proceeds will
be used. This pamphlet is intended to provide guidance to the
Temples, units, clubs and Nobles in their fundraising activities so
there can be no criticism directed at them that the solicitation
did not conform to the requirements of the law or was deceptive
or misleading.
STATEMENTS OF PURPOSE
All fundraising promotional materials must contain a
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE. Below are examples for each type
of fundraising activity.
FOR CHARITABLE FUNDRAISERS:
“Net proceeds from this (activity, event, etc.) are for the benefit
of Shriners Hospitals for Children.”
FOR FRATERNAL FUNDRAISERS:
“Net proceeds from this (activity, event, etc.) are for the benefit
of XYZ Temple/Unit/Shrine Club.”
DISCLOSURE (for Fraternal fundraisers) “Payments are not
deductible as charitable contributions.”
NOTE: All fraternal fundraising materials must include both the
statement of purpose and disclosure.
CHARITABLE FUNDRAISERS
It should be emphasized at this point that a Noble (in his
capacity as a Shriner), a Shrine Temple/club/unit, an organization
of Nobles, or affiliated/appendant corporations SHALL NOT
engage in any charitable fundraising effort other than for the
benefit of Shriners Hospitals for Children.
When a decision is made to conduct a charitable fundraiser,
the responsible Noble (club/unit president, committee chairman,
etc...) must submit a written request to the Temple Potentate
having jurisdiction thereof. If he approves, the Potentate must
then obtain the written consent of the Imperial Potentate and
Chairman of the Board of Trustees. This request shall be sent
to the Executive Vice President – Imperial Council, Shriners
International Headquarters, P.O. Box 31356, Tampa, Florida
33631-3356. Final approval for a charitable fundraising activity
is effective upon the Temple’s receipt of a Charity Activity Form.
If a request is denied by the Imperial Potentate and Chairman of
the Board of Trustees, the Temple Potentate will receive a full
explanation in writing.
One hundred percent of the net proceeds from charitable
fundraisers must be given to Shriners Hospitals for Children.
Expenses for operating the event must be actual, and no
labor charges can be made for volunteer work by Shriners and/
or their families.
Under certain conditions, existing General Orders allow the
use of a portion of funds raised for the hospitals to be used for
patient transportation.
All solicitation materials, tickets, programs and documents
must include factual information (Statement of Purpose)
regarding use of the proceeds.
Information about our hospitals (obtainable from the Imperial Public Relations Department), such as patient success stories,
facts and figures, photos or other appropriate material, may be
used in programs for charitable fundraisers.
TYPES OF FUNDRAISERS
There are two types of Shrine fundraisers – Charitable and
Fraternal.
CHARITABLE FUNDRAISERS – Where 100 percent
of the net proceeds benefit Shriners Hospitals for Children.
FRATERNAL FUNDRAISERS – Where the net
proceeds benefit the Temple, which in turn may distribute them
as it sees fit. For example, profits may be disbursed to the Temple
general fund, a building fund, to clubs and/or units, to Shriners
Hospitals for Children, to local community or Masonic related
projects (DeMolay, Masonic Home, etc.) or any combination
thereof.
PROCEDURES THAT APPLY TO ALL
SHRINE FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES
All fundraising must comply with the law of the land; that is,
the law of the jurisdiction where the activity takes place. This
includes national, state or province, and local laws.
The use of the name Shriners Hospitals is governed by
§503.10 of the bylaws of Shriners Hospitals.
All fundraising is governed by General Orders as may be
issued on that subject by the Imperial Potentate.
Insurance. Your attention is particularly called to that
portion of the existing General Order #1 pertaining to insurance.
Strict compliance is required. All contracts must be reviewed and
January 2015

Red Fez
The Temple shall report the results of each charitable fundraising activity within 60 days of the activity to Shriners Hospitals for Children on the Charity Activity Form provided to the
Temple. A Temple that fails to remit the net proceeds within 60
days of the activity shall be assessed interest retroactive to the
date of the activity.
The Temple shall maintain detailed financial records of all
fundraising activities involving Nobles, clubs, units, organizations of Nobles or affiliated / appendant corporations for a period
of seven years. Details of all revenues and disbursements shall be
maintained in such financial records.
State Solicitation Laws: Some states have solicitation laws
that may require Shrine compliance. Temples must have their attorney review such laws. By way of example, the State of Florida
requires that the following statement be included in all printed
solicitation materials, receipts, written confirmation, or reminders of contributions soliciting charitable contributions for Shriners Hospitals. The statement must be conspicuously displayed
in all capital letters.
SHRINERS HOSPITALS FOR CHILDREN ARE DULY REGISTERED WITH THE STATE OF FLORIDA AS REQUIRED
BY ITS SOLICITATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS ACT. THEIR
REGISTRATION NUMBER IS CH 433. A COPY OF THE
OFFICIAL REGISTRATION AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE DIVISION OF CONSUMER SERVICES BY CALLING TOLL-FREE 1-800-4357352 WITHIN THE STATE. REGISTRATION DOES NOT
IMPLY ENDORSEMENT, APPROVAL OR RECOMMENDATION BY THE STATE.
Disclosure on the front cover or the first page. The Statement of
Purpose and Disclosure should also be included as a part of each
fundraising activity advertised in Temple publications.
The Temple shall maintain detailed financial records of all
fundraising activities involving Nobles, clubs, units, and organizations, of Nobles or affiliated/appendant corporations for a period of seven years. Details of all revenues and disbursements shall
be maintained in such financial records.

THE “RED FEZ” MAGAZINE
The Sudan Shriners “Red Fez” magazine is a quarterly publication intended to
keep the Nobility, their families and interested friends informed of upcoming events,
announcements, and news from Sudan Shriners, clubs, and units.
With a renewed commitment to keep all members informed, the Potentate, Sudan
Divan, and Sudan office personnel strive to provide timely information distributed through
Website updates at www.sudanshriners.com in addition to this publication.
We welcome article and photo submissions from all Sudan members, clubs, and units
with assurance that with space permitting and publishable photographs attached, you can expect to see your material published
on either the Website or in the “Red Fez”. Submissions will be subject to rewrites or modification to insure journalistic
accuracy, timeliness, and proper style.
With a rich rewarding history to relish and help compose, Sudan Shriners will continue to provide you, the individual
member, club or unit, outlets to share with others, your experiences in your Shrine journey.
The results of your labors are evident in the number of children who have so much more than they might have had
otherwise, through your support of the Shriners Hospitals for Children. Be proud that you wear the Red Fez of a Sudan
Shriner!
Submit material for the “Red Fez” to Sudan Shriners, 403 E. Front St., New Bern, NC 28560. Submit material for
Sudan’s website to: [email protected]. Office: 252-637-5197 Fax: 252-637-9935 Toll Free: 800-697-5197.
