Omar Temple 111
Daughters of the Nile
Message from Queen Sandra
Omar Temple No. 111, Daughters of the Nile
was well represented, twenty-six members and
one husband at the 96th Supreme Session held in the City of
Roses, Portland, Oregon.
The festivities for the week were exciting,
exhilarating, surprises and everlasting friendships. The Omar
Dancers and Patrol performances were top notched and
everyone was either swaying to the music or toe tapping. The
Stated Sessions were very informative and on Monday
afternoon, we had a pleasant surprise when
Shirley Y. Smith, Canadian Trustee announced that
Omar Temple No. 111 was first based on a membership of 300
by Pr. Sheila Eldridge
and over for the “2011 Total Contribution Award” to the
Canadian Foundation for the Convalescent Endowment and
Convalescent Relief Fund. The certificate was presented to the
Queen, Sandy Rank of Omar Temple by Supreme Queen
Laura Richardson. Kudos to all of the Ladies of the Household
of Omar! The Daughters of the Nile of North America have
donated over $1,681,000 towards the Shriners Children and
the eleven Canadian Temples have donated $203,877 to the
Shriners Hospitals for Children®-Canada…..yahoo!
In closing, this week has been fantastic and I would
like to thank all of the 2012 Supreme travelers for everything
that you did for me as we “Stepped Out in Style”.
