Potentate’s Message
Greetings Nobles & Ladies We hope
your summer is going well.
Your Divan has been busy the month of
July. We traveled to Tampa for Imperial
Session. Tangier is proud to announce
that Illustrious Sir Jeff Jackson and Lady
Heidi made a generous donation of
One Million Dollars to our Shriners
Hospitals, at the Imperial Session.
God Bless Jeff & Heidi, we are
very proud!
August is going to be busy with the Carson parade on
August 6th, Nile Kids Carnival on August 14th and Shrine
Night at the Races on August 19th. Footnote on the Race
at I-80 Speedway--tickets are free for Nobles, Ladies,
family or anyone interested, so Let’s go Racing!
CSSA is in Little Rock on August 24th - 27th. We are
looking forward to a great time.
Remember Spaghetti Feed is Sept 11th, and we will
need all the help we can get. If you brought in a new
Noble, give them a call and bring them along to get them
involved.
Finally, this year we have done a great deal of remodeling.
Projects like the security gate for the bartenders; ceiling
fans in the bar, new finish on the entrance and steps, new
floor in the back kitchen and numerous other projects. Our
goal was that we would make Tangier a premier center.
With the leadership of the Past Potentates who have
supported this, I would have to say, “We Did It”! A lot
of Nobles helped with these projects. I want to especially
thank Illustrious Sir Frank Kroupa, Al Sesemann, Dave
Muller and all the Nobles that saved us a lot of money
with their time and labor. Their love of Tangier is truly
evident.
The last project is outside. You may have noticed the
fence is gone, along with the gate. We are going to replace
it with landscaping which will be easier to maintain, and
make it look more appealing.
Lastly, I propose, and it is time; we are getting bids to
replace the east parking lot with 7 inches of concrete, and
change the slope so it drains properly. What we have now
is falling apart and is beyond patching. I want to thank
Bill German for going out for the bids on this. We’re
putting together a budget not to exceed $125,000, and
we will need your support to release these funds from the
Fricke-Jackson Fund. This is important and I ask for your
support.

Tangier Band
AU G U S T 2 0 1 6
Boone &Crockett
By: Charlie Binge, Secretary
By: John Herbolsheimer
Greetings to all!
As the summer marches on,
the Tangier Band continues to keep pace
by playing in parades and performing at
various locations around town. Thank you
again to the Legion of Honor who have let
us join their float for the parades, which
has enabled us to entertain the crowd at
almost every parade this year. In addition
to parades, we recently had the opportunity
to play at Bickford Senior Living, where
we spent the evening with Don Kaye and
other residents. We have missed having
Don at our practices and performances
and we were glad to have such a talented
musician lend his skill to our small concert.
We also spent an afternoon entertaining
the residents at Rolling Hills Ranch for an
Independence Day Concert that was well
attended and fun to put on!
Since the parade season and other
concerts are keeping our schedules full, the
band will not hold its regular practice for
the month of August. We will continue to
play at Stated Meetings and welcome any
event where a small band might be needed.
If special music is required, let us know
and we will do our best to deliver.
The Band is always looking for band
instrumentalists, and we can always use a
few more brass, woodwind, and percussion
players. Even if you think you’ve been
out of practice for too long, sit in with us
and you’ll be surprised at how quickly
it all comes back to you! If you need an
instrument, we might be able to find one
for you. If you are interested, please contact
John Herbolsheimer at herboljohn@
hotmail.com or Nathan Rolofson at
[email protected].
Please continue to support the
fundraising activities of your local clubs,
units, and lodges.
It’s August. August means
fishing, continued parades, CSSA, and
children going back to school.
The members of the Boone & Crockett
Club are out fishing and reporting good
catches. Speaking of good catches, I hope
you didn’t miss the B&C Walleye Fish Fry
on Sunday, July 31st. Reports are the food
was outstanding and attendance was up. One
hundred percent of the money we raise from
the Fish Fry, Annual Wild Game Dinner, and
Gun Raffle goes toward purchasing new vans
to transport our children to the hospitals.
At our June business/dinner meeting
we announced all Gun Raffle tickets were
sold and monies turned in. All 12 of the
winner’s names were drawn and their
names announced. Congratulations to all the
winners. Also in June, the Boone & Crockett
Club gave the Tangier Divan a check to cover
the cost of our new Chrysler Town & Country
van.
CSSA is coming up soon, August 24-28, in
Little Rock, AR, and the units are polishing
cars and shining shoes to prepare for
competition. Good luck to all who participate.
We are still looking for a couple of
fishermen to join us in our annual journey
to Sheboygan, WI for a salmon fishing trip
September 11-14. Please give me a call at
402-895-5750, if you are interested in joining
us.
The B&C Club meets in the Shrine Center
basement the first Thursday of the month
at 6:30 pm for a short meeting and dinner
afterward. Please feel free to come and join
the brothers and see what we are all about.
Our next meeting is August 4th.
THINK MEMBERSHIP - Visit your Blue
Lodge and bring a brother into the Shrine.
Chanters
By: Bernie Hauber
On June 26, the Chanters
performed a fund raising concert in Sioux
Falls SD with El Riad Shrine Chanters (Sioux
Falls SD), Abu Becker (Sioux City IA), Kem
(Grand Forks ND), and Yelduz (Aberdeen
ND). In July, we learned that the Shriners
Hosptial for Children – Twin Cities received
a check in the amount of $1418 from the
concert donations.
It is still summer, but the Tangier Shrine
Chanters’ singing schedule has picked up.
This month, we have plans to sing for some
local churches. We began practicing again
with warm-up beginning at 6:50 pm, and
are preparing for our performances at area
churches in August. Our church performances
on Sundays in August are as follows: August
21 (11:00 am) – Carson United Methodist
Church 300 Washington St., Carson, IA and
August 28 (10:30 am) - All Saints Episcopal
Church, 9302 Blondo St., Omaha, NE. We are
also scheduled to sing at Arrows to Aerospace
celebration at Washington Park, Bellevue on
Saturday, August 20. The exact times are still
to be determined as of this writing. However,
please feel free to contact any Chanter and
we will be glad to give you the details.
The Chanters have also begun preparations
for our annual fundraiser (the Rib Feed) on
October 21. Tickets should be on sale by the
end of August.
Any noble with even a little interest in
singing and a willingness to join us should
contact any Chanter or just leave a message
at the Shrine Center. That’s my update for
August.
The Chanters Unit does not participate in
parades and there is no organized competition
in the CSSA. However, we wish nothing
but the best for other Tangier Units who are
competing at the upcoming CSSA in Little
Rock, Arkansas. GO TANGIER!

Corvette Club
By Maynard Crispin
By: Paul Bohannon
The Corvette Club had 21 Corvettes
at the Ralston Parade and what a parade
it was. We heard they estimated 60,000
people. It was a great day compared to
last year. Thanks again Keith Kortright
for picking out all the great places to
gather before the parades. We’re having
a great time.
Thank Tom and Meg Bonnichsen for
hosting our summer picnic. It was a great
time. Thanks to Travis for arranging the
club display at the H&H All Chevy Show.
We’re going to have a large group of
Corvettes going to the CSSA competition
in Little Rock in August. It sounds like
they have found us a great hotel close
to a trolley line to take us around town.
Looking forward to the trip. Hope to see
a lot of you there. If you can’t make it
I hope you participate in the Millard
Parade. I understand that Miloma Lodge
#328 is on the lineup route and they are
talking about having a breakfast available
again this year. Well worth the money.
Come hungry.
Thanks to Keith Kortright who knows
how to use the Broaster at the Shrine. He
has cooked up a great meal for our last
meeting at a nominal price. More food
than anyone should eat.
Welcome Chip/Patti Woodmen as the
newest member of the Corvette Club.
Maybe you can go with us to CSSA.
The Corvette Club is always looking for
new members. You don’t have to own a
corvette to join. We have a lot of fun, and
sometimes we need volunteers to drive
a car in a parade, or at a car show, or
competition. Contact us today and start
your adventure down Highway 2016
with us.
Road Runners
By: Stanley Garner
Tangier Road Runners made
seven trips to the Shriners Hospital for
Children – Twin Cities in June, transporting
seven patients. Twenty patients traveled to
the Twin Cities by private conveyance, and
one traveled to the St. Louis Hospital on
their own. Five patients were flown to the
Chicago Hospital, and one was flown to the
Philadelphia Hospital.
June drivers included M. Boehler, G.
Eckert, G. Bennett, M. Hatcher, D. Deming,
J. Nielsen, M. Drier, R. DeWell, J. Hoagland,
R. Lyon, J. Gathmann and R. Krause.
Thanks all for your “patient” driving.

The time of year is in full swing for
parades and our Tangier Shrine image to
shine. The crowds are smiling and waving
back at us. It is a thrill to see how happy
the Shriners make all the children and even
the adults. What a great way to advertise our
Shrine and our cause. Please check the Hot
Sands for the Parade Schedule. There are
still a number of parades and we would love
to see you there. The Director Staff would
like to invite any ladies or fellow Shriners to
please come and ride on our trailer with us.
The more the merrier.
Check your Hot Sands calendar to see
what is coming up for the next couple
months. Let’s all try to support the other
clubs and their activities. This is what keeps
our Shrine shining. Don’t forget your Blue
Lodge they also need your support.
July 30 the Director Staff had a picnic at
Linoma Beach after the Gretna Parade. A
great time was had by all. We even had a
bikini and speedo contest. Just kidding!
On August 12 we will be sponsoring a
Bingo Night at Tangier from 6:00 to 10:00
pm. $8 a ticket to play for the night and a
chance to win numerous prizes. Come out
for a fun-filled night. We appreciate your
support. Tickets can be bought at the door.
B - be there for a night of fun
I - I will see you there
N - night full of fun
G - got’a get there early to get a good seat
O - Oh my gosh I got a bingo
Now that we have hit the half-way point
in the year, I would like to take this time
to thank all of you and your ladies for all
the help and support you have given Nancy
and me this year. We were very green as far
as what was expected of us but everyone
pitched in to help and guide us. Again,
Thank You.
If you are interested in becoming a
member of the Director Staff, contact any
member or visit us on the fourth Monday of
every month in the lower level of the Shrine
at 7:00 pm. Our ladies meet at the same
time. We would welcome you to join us.
Remember:
“Be
kind
whenever
possible.
It
is
always
possible.”
It’s a Great Day to be a Shriner!
Golden Girls
By: Maxine Lorraine Powers
This is the month we can all enjoy eating
the homegrown vegetables and melons
available at Farmers Markets in the area.
Homegrown tomatoes are one of the special
treats for most people. Some of our basic
vegetables have grown on this planet since
the beginning of time. The Egyptian symbol
of eternity is the onion.
I’m repeating a paragraph of my August
2011 “Hot Sands” article because I think it’s
worth repeating. Time is a dictator. We do live
by the clock. Time brings to my mind some
of the famous clocks throughout the world.
The Anker Clock in Vienna, Austria; Obelisk
of Montecitorio – Rome, Italy; Jubilee Clock,
Zimmer Tower – Lier, Belgium; Clock
Tower, Ministry of the Interior – Madrid,
Spain; Sundial, Forbidden City – Beijing,
China; World Time Clock – Berlin, Germany;
Dolmabahce Clock Tower – Istanbul, Turkey;
Astronomical Clock, Strasbourg Cathedral –
Strasbourg, France; Spasskaya Tower Clock,
The Kremlin – Moscow, Russia, and the very
famous clock tower, Palace of Westminster
– London, England. All of these clocks are
great pieces of artwork.
Golden Girls will not have their monthly
noon luncheon meeting in August. Happy
Birthday JoAnn Spann. Enjoy your special
day, August 5th.
Until next month. September will bring
cooler weather.
MO-RI
By: Noble Don
After a busy first seven months of doing
several breakfasts, a busy parade schedule,
and sponsoring an Oasis after the Blair Parade,
it’s time to get back to what we do best – Meet
& Eat! June and July are traditionally dark
moths for the Club allowing for family time
and travel. August means we turn the lights
back on and get on with toasting the Nobility.
President Joe has lined up a couple of new
locations for our September and October
dinners that should be pleasing to all.
August is Steak Fry month and we can be
found in the main room at Tangier Center. Jim
Hirl and his crew will be in charge of putting
together steak and the trimmings. This event
goes off on Thursday evening August 18.
The annual Club Picture will also be taken at
6:50 pm and dinner served at 7:00. If you are
wondering about Mo-Ri and what we do, this
would be the perfect evening to come out and
check us out.

Howdy Cuzins! How ya’ll doin? Thank
you again to everyone that has helped with all
the activities goin on this Summer! It’s sure
been a whole lotta fun. Great job everyone! I
want to thank all the Divan Cuzins and Gals
for leading the Tangier Team too. We are
lucky to have such a supportive Divan full
of Hillbillies.
Congratulations to all the new Cuzins
and Gals. I hope you will jump in and feel
right at home as our newest Hillbillies.
The Clan looks forward to getting to know
you all real soon. You will be getting your
official Hillbilly News very soon. Also,
please be sure that Ms Cheryl Wonder has
your computer mail address, so we can send
you information and updates about Hillbilly
happenings. Welcome Cuzins and Gals!
So what’s goin on? Here are some Hillbilly
Happenings. SAVE THE DATES!
August 6th – Carson Parade. Calling all
Cuzins and Gals! We are marching as a club
in the Carson Parade! Put on your best duds
and hats and come on out. Afterward honor
the cob at the Carson Oasis where they have
the best sweet corn in the world! We are
even getting a banner and everything! Please
RSVP to Cheryl in the office if you can march
with us. We really want to see some of you
new Cuzins too!
October 15th – Fall Party at Ralph’s
Hideout. The Viddle Fixer is cookin up a big
batch of Hillbilly Stew and biscuits! Degree
work will depend on the level of interest.
Of course there will be a fire… Call Cheryl
or one of the Hillbilly officers if you have a
candidate. NOTE – I think I had the wrong
date in last month’s article. I apologize for
the cornfuzion!
December 29th – Hillbilly Christmas
Party and gift exchange.
Have you got an idea you would like to
see us try? Please let me or one of the other
officers know what you’re thinkin. We are
always looking for new ideas to try.
Like always, keep an eye on the Hot Sands
and your computer for Hillbilly news and
updates. Please make sure we have your
contact information to include your email. If
you have any questions about the Hillbillies,
please call Cuzin Cheryl in the Shrine office
or me.
I hope everyone is having a great parade
season and summer. Isn’t it great to be a
Shriner? Honor the Cob!
What a great turnout we had for our
parades in Blair, Papillion, Red Oak, and
Ralston. There was also a great turnout at
the Ralston’s Independence Day parade and
they estimated over 60K people attended the
parade. It’s was great to have Jerry Bishop,
Tom Upton, and Allan Marsh back. This
month will be in Gretna and Carson Iowa. I
hope you can make it.
“WANTED: NOBLES THAT WANT TO
HAVE FUN!” Bob Krause and the board are
calling on nobles that would like to be part of
this club. We sure could use a couple of new
guys to help us drive the Divan. In order to
entice you to give us a try, our Captain has
added dessert to the drink and meal offer!
But wait, he has informed us that he will even
buy an appetizer. If you would like to join
us, we meet the first Monday of each Month.
It’s at Brother Sebastian’s, located at 1350 S.
119th St. the meeting starts at 6:00 pm. Hope
to see you there.
A pizza delivery boy arrived at Bob
Krause’s house to drop off an order. Bob
asked what is your usual tip. “The other guys
said if I get a quarter out of you, I will be
doing great” he said. Bob snorted, “well, just
to show them how wrong they are, here’s
$5.00.” “Thanks, I’ll put this in my school
fund.” “What are you studying?” Bob asked.
“Applied Psychology” he answered.
Till next month.
Arab Patrol
By: Steve Bugajny,
Secretary
Greetings and happy summer to you all!
Well the parade season is in full force and
having just finished the 4th of July parade, we
sure look like we are all enjoying the Shriner
brotherhood. I thought our Shrine members
were having a super time and representing the
Shriners proudly.
As the Arab patrol marched in formation, it
was nice to see the crowds looking on at them
and waving respectfully and enthusiastically.
A special thank you to the Kliments for
once again hosting the Oasis at their lovely
home. Good food and libations were enjoyed
and hearty conversation and planning for the
next parade was evident. Thanks to all who
brought food and drink to share.
Our next big participatory role will most
likely be the Millard Days Parade in August.
There is plenty of time to join Arab Patrol
and march with members at the parade. Please
feel free to contact President Steve Spear with
inquiries. Check your Hot Sands issue for
contact information. We would love to have
you in our group.
Keystone Kops
By: Captain
Travis “Jinxie” Drews
The Keystone Kops of Tangier thank
everyone who came out to our Christmas
in July fundraiser! We hope you all enjoyed
yourselves! I have seen many ugly Christmas
sweaters, but the ones on display at the party
redefined the word ugly. Another big thank
you to all the Kops and Kuties who worked
at the fundraiser and made it the success that
it was!
Thanks to all who have helped prepare the
Paddy Wagon for parades thus far. The new
Paddy Wagon still has some things that need
to be done, but for all practical purposes
it can be used for parades. The vehicle
committee is working hard to make sure
things are getting done right the first time.
CSSA is almost upon us and Past Chief
Shave and I are working on an award
winning skit for competition. Keep an eye
out for skit practice times and dates. Things
will get messy, but the fellowship we will
have will be priceless! We will be prepared
for Little Rock. Hopefully Little Rock
will be prepared for the Keystone Kops of
Tangier Shrine!
Don’t forget the Kops and Kuties are
serving the meal before the August stated
meeting at the Shrine on August 11th. The
Daughters of the Nile Kids Carnival is
August 14th.
Happy Birthday to Past Chief Jeff
Burnham, Officer Gino Dawson, Noble
Assistant Raban and Past Chief David
Norton, Past Chief Dave Shaw. Happy
Birthday to Kutie Brenda Holman.
This month’s edition of “Do you
remember your first pie” is a doozy! Past
Chief Shave didn’t get smacked with a pie
– it was a big cake! It was 1988 at CSSA
in Wichita during the skit competition. His
assailant was a Kop by the name of Duck
McLean. Shave was blinded and surprised
and to keep the skit moving, Duck kept
telling Shave to “keep going, keep going.”
Keep thinking membership! If you top
line sign someone, make sure that they get
involved with a club or unit and be a mentor
to them! Always keep a Shriners Hospital
patient referral card with you in your wallet
or purse. Support your Blue Lodge, York,
and Scottish Rites.

Congratulations to Sat-ra
Temple No. 59’s new Supreme Appointive
Officers for 2016-17: Les Faulkenberry PQ,
Beverly Donham PQ, Angie Huebner PQ,
Barb Gray, PQ and Deb Benitez PQ.
Our new Supreme Queen is the beautiful
Cathy Carol Rose, PQ who will be visiting
our Temple on Sunday, September 18 at
2:00 pm.
I was able to honor Patti Pettit, PQ at the
very moving Memorial Service at Supreme
Session. Sat-ra Temple extends our heartfelt
sympathies for her family and friends.
I need to give my extreme gratitude and
appreciation to our Patrol Unit members that
worked so hard to preform and also escort me
in with the 130+ other reigning Queens. In
attendance were Tina Bowerman PQ, Linda
Jasa PQ, Mary Elizabeth Waite PQ, Princess
Badora Karen Clopton and Princess Yvonne
Highman. I was also attended by Princess
Royal Samantha Gunn and PQ Paula Gunn
throughout the week. Two other ladies
working very hard during the performances
were Supreme Director of Patrols Past Queen
Bev Donham and her assistant Dee Schuetz.
Thank you to Supreme Princess Zora Becky
Unger, PQ and Supreme Temple American
Flag Escort Deb Benitez, PQ. Beautifully
done Ladies.
Our next session: August 4. Dinner at 5:30
pm served by Pageantry Dancers Unit, and
Session starts at 6:15 pm. Make reservations
with Renate Horn, 402-333-8084. There
is a Newsletter coming out for all Sat-ra
Temple No. 59 members as of the end of July.
Please call me if you have not gotten one,
402-690-4431.
The 4th Annual Kid’s Carnival is on August
14th, 1-4 pm. A lot of fun games, food, and
drinks will be available for minimal prices.
The CHIP program will start at noon so that
we might be able to get more young children
through the lines. We have many Tangier
units and clubs that will be helping to make
our community more aware of all we do for
the “Kids”. Call Angie Huebner at 402-3314461 to let her know if you can help out too.
We are working to increasing the community
awareness of all that we do.
I want to thank everyone that gave me their
heartfelt condolences, cards, and flowers
when my father, Marvin Seastrom, passed
away on May 28, 2016. It means so much
to my husband Steve and I to know that our
Shrine and Nile friends are always here to
support us during hard times.
Keep bringing in new members. Remember
membership begins with “ME”.

Greetings from Motor “A”, and a busy
parade season it has been. At the Blair Parade,
one of our members was not there and we are
not sure if he bought a Barn or a Quilt since
he left us a message he was on a Barn Quilt
Mission? Our appearance at the Papillion
Parade was met with very hot weather, and the
brakes on the Lil 57’s were getting a workout.
We did not have a July meeting because
we were attending the 4th of July parade
in Ralston. Dick and Rosemary have most
graciously invited Motor “A” to their home for
the August meeting.
It was brought to our attention that Roger
hasn’t had a “Kodak” moment during any of
our parades, but that might be because the
media has given up on Motor “A” if Roger is
not in attendance at the parades. I apologize
to Al for bumping into his car while parading
in Blair, the intense heat was causing me
to struggle as I was performing a strategic
maneuver at my high rate of speed causing
my timing to be off (sounds good don’t you
think?)
You all were probably wondering where
Motor “A” was at the Red Oak Parade? It
seems everyone had commitments and I went
to Sioux City to see if Dick made his first of
three class reunions. Dick is the only person
we know that attends three different class
reunions a year.
That’s all the parade news from Motor
“A for now, our cars have been performing
well so far this parade season and we are
all glad about that. I want to extend a happy
anniversary to Al and Kelly from last month
and happy birthdays for this month are Scott
Clark, Lindsey Gobbett, and Gene Bowman.
Anniversary wishes go out to Roger & Karen
also.

Mobile Nobles

“OLD 357” will make appearances at two
parades in August. On Saturday August 6th
we will travel to Carson, IA. Lineup is at
9:30 am. All members will be notified of the
schedule by our Secretary (Mr. always on top
of all things) Patrick Smith. Patrick’s service
to our unit is very valuable in keeping all
members up to date. Big thanks to Patrick for
his dedication.
The week of August 22nd the train will
travel to CSSA in Little Rock, AR. All will be
informed of the departure date and time and
the return scheduled date and time. Anyone
who wishes to ride the train needs to contact
Larry Drews for availability and to schedule.
As mentioned in the July Hot Sands,
the train has experienced trouble with the
generator that runs our electrical service
to the club car and the air conditioners. By
the time you read this article we will have
resolved this problem.
A giant thanks to all Mobile Nobles and
their Ladies for serving the dinner at the Stated
Meeting in June. We had a great showing and
everything went off like clockwork.
Tickets for our raffle for a Lifetime
Membership to Tangier or a cash equivalent
of $2,250 cash are still available. Ticket price
is $25 and the drawing will be held at the
Halloween Bash on Oct. 8th. Contact your
favorite Mobile Noble to purchase.
As always remember to support all Tangier
Units and Clubs and our advertisers in the
Hot Sands. We must remember to thank all
who support us.
That’s all for now as I am going over to
the train to watch the new TV installed in the
Club Car. See you all down the tracks.

Provost
AU G U S T 2 0 1 6
Arbor Shrine
By: Brian Heath
I write this with two days
having passed since the Provost closed
down their annual fireworks stand. I once
again think about how lucky I am to be
this year’s Chief of the Provost. A lot of
hard work was put into the stand by many
people. Even more so during one of the
worst rain storms we’ve ever had at the
stand. I’m not saying it was hurricane-like
but there was enough rain that Kevin Potter
was photographed paddling a kayak next
to the stand! The upside is that the Provost
now have a certified naval arm and have
christened the kayak Provost Emergency
Response Vehicle III. On a serious note,
I would like to take an opportunity to
thank the Provost Ladies for all of their
hard work running the registers and with
helping set up and take down the tent.
We quite literally could not have done it
without them. I also want to thank all of the
guys and gals that stocked, guarded, helped
customers, squeegeed water, emptied trash,
got provisions, made food, inventoried,
or did one of many other jobs. Even with
the inclement weather, the tent was a big
success and the money earned will be put to
good use at the Shrine in the coming year.
On that note, I also wanted to thank the
Provost members for offering and voting to
pay $4,000 for the new security doors being
added to the lounge and the main hallway.
We plan to present a check for the repairs at
the July Temple Meeting.
On an even happier note, I am extremely
proud of the Provost members for having
voted to donate $5,000 to the Shriners
Hospital for Children – Twin Cities to
help them purchase an EOS Machine, a
3D X-ray imaging system that uses about
1/10th of the radiation that a regular X-Ray
machine does, making it safer for both the
patients and the staff. We will be presenting
this check to the Potentate at the July stated
meeting with light hearts.
That’s all I have for this month. I look
forward to seeing all of you at the upcoming
parades and at Shrine events. Remember, if
you know someone that you think might
be a good fit in the Provost, send them our
way and we will get them squared away.
See you all out there!
By: Don Larson
Arbor Shrine has been busy with parades
and would like to thank Noble Recorder Bob
Schapp and Lady Amy for joining Arbor Shrine
at the Syracuse parade.
Arbor Shrine plans to overhaul the engine
from the Firetruck this Winter and if anyone
knows someone that is good at repair of older
motors please forward information to someone
at Arbor Shrine.
At the Arbor Shrine June meeting it was
voted to send $500 to the Tangier Women’s
Auxiliary to be forwarded to the Auxiliary at
the Shriners Hospital for Children – Twin Cities
for items to be purchased for the older (teen)
patients because they are always short of items
for them. If any of the other Tangier Units or
Clubs would like to match, the Auxiliary would
appreciate the support.
The Tangier Shrine 2017 Circus ads are now
being sold so if anyone has regular ads now is
the time to get them renewed or any new ads.
Renewal ads and paperwork for new ads can be
found at the Circus Office.
Arbor Shrine would like to thank Past
Potentate Illustrious Sir Jeff Jackson and Lady
Hedi for the wonderful gift of one million
dollars to Shriners International so the work of
helping the Shrines Patients can continue, we
are proud to know people like Jeff and Hedi.
As always, Arbor Shrine is always looking
for new members, if interested contact a noble
from Arbor Shrine.
Hospital Float
By: Mike Donham
The
parade
season
continues with Carson, August 6; CSSA
in Little Rock, Arkansas, August 27 and
Millard also August 27. Plan to attend and
support Tangier by parading.
It is with sadness to report the passing of
Lady Nadine Ellis in June. We convey our
deepest sympathy to Noble Don Ellis and
his family in their loss.
Please welcome Noble Rich Mai and
Lady Lori to the Hospital Float Unit.
Happy Birthday wishes to two of our
honorary members: Noble Dick Whiteman
and PP Don Madsen. Lady Laura Mendoza

It is a month of congratulations and
best wishes because not only does PP
Don Madsen celebrate a birthday but he
and Lady Barb also celebrate an August
anniversary.
