AUGUST 9, 10 & 11<br />
Ceremonial Session of the Central States <strong>Shrine</strong> Association<br />
See You in Cedar Rapids!<br />
Stated Meeting One Week Earlier<br />
Than Usual: <strong>August</strong> 2nd!
<strong>Tangier</strong> “hot sands”<br />
Greetings Nobles and Ladies,<br />
It’s <strong>August</strong> and it is a hot summer! July<br />
was not too busy but we did have some<br />
things go on. We replaced the carpet in the<br />
main room and it looks wonderful. The<br />
Divan cooked and served before a joint<br />
stated meeting with the Ladies. It<br />
was a fun and inspirational evening,<br />
thanks to all that attended. I am told<br />
the Ralston parade was a success and<br />
no one passed out from the heat.<br />
Most of the Divan, several Past Potentates and our<br />
Ladies traveled to Charlotte NC for the Imperial session.<br />
Imperial has launched a major public relations program.<br />
Be sure to look for the <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Hospitals for Children<br />
commercials. Overall it was a very productive and<br />
informative session.<br />
CSSA is this month is Cedar Rapids Iowa. We have sold<br />
out all of our hotel rooms and I know some people were<br />
unable to obtain one. I apologize for the inconvenience.<br />
This is why I cannot stress enough how important it is to<br />
make reservations for our events ASAP.<br />
Don’t forget the <strong>August</strong> stated meeting is on the first<br />
Thursday, <strong>August</strong> 2nd because of CSSA.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong>’s annual spaghetti feed is rapidly approaching.<br />
It will be on Sunday September 23rd. I’m sure Illustrious<br />
Sir Frank Kroupa will be contacting many of you for<br />
your much needed talent and of course your donations.<br />
My Halloween committee wanted me to have you save<br />
the date for the party which is Saturday October 27th,<br />
more details next month.<br />
Let’s all try to focus on membership for the last half<br />
of the year. We had a great start but we have stalled a<br />
little bit over the summer. We are still doing cold sands<br />
every Wednesday before the stated meeting. If you have<br />
questions or need help with a candidate, don’t hesitate to<br />
ask for help.<br />
Finally I just want to say how proud I am of our parades<br />
this year. We have had a great turn out for most of them<br />
on the schedule. Thank you for all of your hard work!<br />

The Red<br />
Cross View<br />
By: Walt Mailand<br />
The next blood drive at <strong>Tangier</strong> will be on Monday<br />
<strong>August</strong> 13. The drive will start at Noon and end at 6:00<br />
pm. You know by this time that we did not reach our quota<br />
in May. In the June Hot Sands I said that I would bring you<br />
up to date on the new gallon club members and those who<br />
had achieved new levels. That will have to wait until next month<br />
when I have current information from the Red Cross.<br />
I decided that I would try to get some information from the<br />
Red Cross to compare our results of the first four drives with<br />
those of the last four drives to see how they would compare. It<br />
was rather disappointing to learn that we had collected 107 pints<br />
in 1996 and only 66 pints fifteen years later. What were we doing<br />
then that is different from our approach to a drive today. So far<br />
I have been unable to come to any conclusion as to changes that<br />
should be made.<br />
You may be interested to know that in 61 previous drives<br />
we collected 1,538 pints of blood for use in the community. This<br />
averages out to be better than 25 pints for each drive. Our average<br />
for the last four drives is 16.5 pints. In 1997 we collected 47 pints<br />
which is the highest since we started. The lowest is 12 pints in<br />
February of 2012.<br />
In fairness to the Red Cross and those who work at our drives<br />
we should get back to our average of 25 pints. Let us all work<br />
together to see if we can accomplish this in <strong>August</strong>. In the future<br />
if you set up an appointment let’s try to be on time so that we can<br />
keep the staff busy for the six hours they are at <strong>Tangier</strong>.<br />
Call me for an appointment on (402) 391-3268.<br />
Remember,“The Gift Of Life Flows Through You”<br />
• GIVE BLOOD •<br />
Don’t forget, have fun with a purpose!<br />
Fraternally Yours,<br />

Clowns<br />
By: Scott”Strypes” Robertson<br />
Hello all, I am sorry I did not have an<br />
article in July’s Hot Sands, we had a lot of<br />
gigs to do and a limited amount of help. We<br />
did a lot of paying and benefit gigs, some<br />
days were two and three gigs.<br />
Speaking of gigs we have Valentino’s as<br />
an ongoing gig and we have a lot of clowns<br />
on our roster, so let’s all get our makeup<br />
on and help out. The money being raised<br />
is going to the repairs of the fire truck.<br />
Speaking of which, Squiggles has been<br />
doing a fine job, a complete tune-up has<br />
been done, leaks have been fixed, the bench<br />
seat has been rebuilt and properly installed.<br />
We had to get new speakers as the old<br />
ones just aren’t what they use to be. The<br />
next item on the repair list will be getting<br />
the springs repaired, so it will be ready for<br />
CSSA.<br />
We have been meeting on Wednesday<br />
for skit practice. We all have some funny<br />
skits, and hopefully we will have some<br />
3-peats on past awards. Some are trying out<br />
new costumes this year. We will have two<br />
competing for rookie clown: “Fabuless”and<br />
“P.I” - good luck fellas. Also, the unit will<br />
be making a substantial donation to the<br />
“Red Sneaker Fund”.<br />
Keep <strong>August</strong> 18th clear we will be<br />
having our summer picnic. Please contact<br />
your officers or watch your e-mail.<br />
I want to thank everyone who turned out<br />
for parades so far this season.<br />
Again I have rambled on, so I will be<br />
signing off. “So let’s get out and make<br />
some kids smile”.<br />
It is still summer and the<br />
Chanters singing schedule is still limited<br />
due to vacations. However, this month we<br />
have plans to sing for some local churches.<br />
The proposed schedule is as follows:<br />
<strong>August</strong> 5 - St. Luke United Methodist<br />
Church (where the Chanter’s director, Dr.<br />
Theis is a choir director); 11810 Burke<br />
Street in Omaha. The service that begins at<br />
10:30 am.<br />
<strong>August</strong> 12 - Bethany Presbyterian Church<br />
(where Chanter Greg Carlson is pastor);<br />
1900 S 7th St in Council Bluffs. The<br />
summer worship service is at 9:30 am.<br />
<strong>August</strong> 19 - Lutheran Church of the<br />
Master; 2617 S. 114th St. in Omaha. The<br />
service begins at 9:15 am.<br />
The Chanters have also begun<br />
preparations for our annual fundraiser (the<br />
Rib Feed). Tickets should be on sale by the<br />
end of <strong>August</strong>.<br />
The Chanters will probably not practice<br />
in <strong>August</strong> except briefly before the church<br />
services.<br />
Any Noble with a little interest in singing<br />
and a willingness to join us should contact<br />
any Chanter or just leave a message at the<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> Center. That’s my update for <strong>August</strong>.<br />
God respects me when I work; but God<br />
loves me when I sing. - Rabindranath<br />

Arab Patrol<br />
By: John Knickman<br />
The Arab Patrol made fleece tied blankets<br />
as a community project and President Phil<br />
Hardiman presented them to Children’s<br />
Hospital. They were well received and the<br />
staff commented that the patients were happy<br />
to have something to take home after their<br />
treatment. The patrol also attended the Boone<br />
and Crockett fish fry as a unit. The meal was<br />
terrific as usual and a good time was had by<br />
all. We also all had a great time at the Storm<br />
Chases baseball game in July.<br />
Charlie and Ellen Binge have offered to let<br />
us use their backyard for a gathering after the<br />
Millard Parade on <strong>August</strong> 25th. This means<br />
that the crack Arab Patrol marching men<br />
will once again hit the pavement. Our Ladies<br />
will join us for the after party, and here is the<br />
good news, you don’t have to bring food as it<br />
will be provided.<br />
Our next Arab Patrol meeting will be<br />
Monday, <strong>August</strong> 13th.<br />
This Hot Sands article comes to you from<br />
a warm sunny lakeshore in Central Missouri.<br />
We are right in the middle of a week’s stay at<br />
our cabin at the Lake of the Ozarks. It’s been<br />
an extra busy year for us this year so this<br />
is a welcome break. It has also been a very<br />
busy year for the Directors Staff. As in the<br />
past our veteran members have really made<br />
things run smoothly. But as you all know,<br />
the Directors Staff is having a huge growth<br />
spurt and we have new members really<br />
pitching in to make things happen. With the<br />
guidance of the veterans, the enthusiasm of<br />
the new members, and the hard work of all<br />
the members, we have really had a great year<br />
thus far. Not only do we get things done, we<br />
have a great time doing it. We really have a<br />
great bunch that enjoys being around each<br />
other. I know it’s an understatement but I<br />
will say it anyway, It’s good to be Directors<br />
Staff.<br />
Parade season is in full swing and as I<br />
mentioned earlier, it is going better than<br />
ever. We have some new guys that are really<br />
getting involved and having fun. I want<br />
to thank John Grant, Roger Mlady, Terry<br />
Cavin and Dave Hoffman for taking care of<br />
the Hearse and getting it stocked and to the<br />
parades. I also need to thank Joe Freeman<br />
for riding shotgun to teach the new drivers<br />
the intricacies of driving the hearse and<br />
Katy for making her world famous Bloody<br />
Marys. I should also give a special thanks<br />
to Bob Burbee and I. B. Joe for maintaining<br />
the hearse and keeping it going.<br />
Parade season isn’t the only summer<br />
activity the Directors Staff takes part in. We<br />
also run bingo for the <strong>Shrine</strong> picnic. Ron<br />
Kern headed this up again this year and John<br />
Chester helped call numbers. And again, we<br />
have a new member chipping in to make<br />
things happen. Roger Mlady picked the tent<br />
up in the shed and got it to the park. John<br />
Grant brought the Jobs Daughters again this<br />
year to call numbers and they were a big<br />
hit. Thanks everyone for another successful<br />
year with bingo. And thank you to everyone<br />
in the Directors Staff for the work you have<br />
all done to make this whole year a huge<br />
success and a whole lot of fun.<br />
If you or anyone you know would like to<br />
be a part of Directors Staff, contact me or<br />
any member of the Staff. We would love to<br />
have you.<br />

Golden Girls<br />
By: Maxine Lorraine Powers<br />
Already, here we are in the second half of<br />
the year 2012. Time, like money these days,<br />
seems to evaporate. Think you’ll agree.<br />
During <strong>August</strong> the summer begins to wind<br />
down. The school bells (excuse me - buzzers)<br />
ring for the youngsters to return to school<br />
and the grownups to return to the basics, so<br />
to speak.<br />
And the weather! We don’t need to dread<br />
those <strong>August</strong> “dog days” as we’ve suffered<br />
through a good supply of them during July.<br />
Blessed be the air conditioner.<br />
Golden Girls will meet on Tuesday, <strong>August</strong><br />
14 - same time and place. The food is always<br />
very good and a very friendly atmosphere<br />
prevails.<br />
Any Lady affiliated with Daughters of the<br />
Nile or a <strong>Tangier</strong> <strong>Shrine</strong>r, with no husband,<br />
is eligible for membership in Golden Girls.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong> <strong>Shrine</strong>rs, if you know of any Lady<br />
meeting these eligibility requirements tell<br />
them about our club. Urge them to call<br />
Arlene Andersen, 402-384-8409 for further<br />
information.<br />
Golden Girl JoAnn Spann will be<br />
celebrating her birthday <strong>August</strong> 5th. Happy<br />
birthday JoAnn; wishing you many more.<br />
If you were unable to be present at our<br />
July meeting - too bad! You missed an<br />
exceptionally fine book review. Our luncheon<br />
guest, Barb Schlitz, reviewed the book “Mrs.<br />
Kennedy and Me” by Clint Hill. The author<br />

Greeters<br />
By: John James<br />
Hello Greeter Guys and Gals.<br />
The July 4th parade in Ralston was a hot<br />
one, it was well attended by the <strong>Tangier</strong><br />
Nobles and Ladies, and no one melted from<br />
the heat.<br />
We have two local area parades in <strong>August</strong>:<br />
Carson Iowa, <strong>August</strong> 4th and Millard, <strong>August</strong><br />
25th. Please try to attend if possible. The<br />
parades are fun and the fellowship is even<br />
better. A big thank you to Assistant Director<br />
Chuck Kubich for his truck to pull our<br />
greeters float.<br />
CSSA is on <strong>August</strong> 11th in Cedar Rapids,<br />
Iowa - wishing everyone a safe and fun trip.<br />
The <strong>Tangier</strong> Stated Meeting is the second<br />
Thursday, <strong>August</strong> 9th. We need Greeters at<br />
the door, dressed in red shirts and brown<br />
fatigues - do not forget your Fez.<br />
The Greeters picnic is set for <strong>August</strong> 19th,<br />
same place as last year, Bellevue Masonic<br />
Lodge. If you have not received an invitation<br />
please contact Asst. Dir. Chuck Kubich. The<br />
mailing for the picnic is RSVP, we need to<br />
know how many are attending. Please let us<br />
know with a Yea or Nay.<br />
Keep the Greeters and the <strong>Tangier</strong> strong,<br />
find new members.<br />
Racers<br />
By: Jack Hill<br />
Six Racers drove to Red Oak, IA in the rain<br />
but hoping for dry streets upon arrival. Not<br />
the case. We checked the parade route and<br />
it was full of puddles. Our little cars have<br />
floorboards that scoop in front. No way could<br />
we drive through puddles. We made the trip<br />
but could not be part of that annual parade.<br />
Next up for us will be CSSA and the Carson<br />
and Millard parades. We just need drier<br />
streets.<br />
The Racers now have new sweatshirts to<br />
wear during parades. The first time for these<br />
shirts will be Carson, Iowa on <strong>August</strong> 4.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong> is getting ready for its annual<br />
Spaghetti feed and the Racers, as in the past,<br />
presented a check to <strong>Tangier</strong> to pay for the<br />
necessary meat that is the base for the sauce.<br />
See you there.<br />
Last month, we asked for the non driving<br />
racers to return their cars to the club for<br />
reassignment. No luck, yet. We will keep<br />
trying to get the unused cars in the hands of<br />
club members who want to drive in parades.<br />

<strong>Tangier</strong> Pirates<br />
By: Sonny Ashford<br />
Hello Kops, Kuties, Nobles, and Ladies all.<br />
Just let me get this out of the way right off the<br />
bat. I’d really like to apologize for the lack of<br />
an article in last month I was suffering from<br />
computer issues. That being said <strong>August</strong> is<br />
here and CSSA is right around the corner.<br />
Actually there is no corner just a four hour<br />
drive across the wind milled plains of Iowa. I<br />
can’t wait to see you all there. I’m sure at least<br />
THREE of us will have a great time. Our skit<br />
is probably the greatest thing I’ve seen, and<br />
if we practice at least THREE more times we<br />
might actually earn that trophy. For the Kops<br />
that can’t make it we would love to have you<br />
participate in the JDRF walk on Saturday,<br />
<strong>August</strong> 11 at the Lewis & Clark Landing in<br />
downtown Omaha. We would ask the Kops<br />
to be at the event from approximately 9:30<br />
- 11:00 am. If you can do it they would love<br />
to have us.<br />
We have had some great parades this<br />
summer and even the heat couldn’t keep the<br />
Kops away from the soaking good times. The<br />
SWAT (soak-um wet attack team) has been<br />
out in full force pleasing the crowds with a<br />
nice refreshing spray down. It’s been great<br />
to see so many Kops able to make it to the<br />
parades this year.<br />
Now because I missed last month’s article<br />
I would like to mention all the July birthdays<br />
and anniversaries. So a big Happy July<br />
Birthday to Darwin Baker, Gene “Shave”<br />
Holman, Ed Luick, Matt Sproul, David<br />
Tinsley, Kuties Kim Burnham & Pam Stier.<br />
I would also like to wish a very happy July<br />
Anniversary to Arlo and Sandy Burk. Now<br />
those celebrating <strong>August</strong> birthdays are<br />
Kuties Brenda Holman and Pam Mitchell,<br />
Past Chiefs Jeff Burnham and Dave Shaw,<br />
Officer Ross “En Fuego” Cerveny, and our<br />
chief Dave “Tiny Bubbles” Norton. I’d also<br />
like to wish a happy anniversary to Justin and<br />
Stephanie Porta.<br />
Road Runners<br />
By: Stanley Garner<br />
June van trips to Hospitals<br />
included one trip to St. Louis,<br />
and twelve trips to Minneapolis, ferrying a<br />
total of thirteen patients. In addition, there<br />
were nineteen patients traveling by private<br />
conveyance, and two by air.<br />
June drivers were J. Gathmann and J. Frost<br />
to St. Louis, and R. Howell, S. Turner, C.<br />
Sohm, A. Sohm, C. Fuglsang, L. Fuglsang,<br />
R. Lyon, N. O’Donnell, B. Thummel,<br />
H. Fouts, G. Eckert, J. Jones, J. Riddle,<br />
James Davis, S. Hanquist, R. Stoffers, D.<br />
Pennington, M. Boehler, R. DeWell, L.<br />
Poffenbarger and M. Burke to Minneapolis.<br />
Good driving!<br />
All aboard! WOW! July was a hot one this<br />
year. Hope everyone stayed cool and took it<br />
easy last month. Thank you to all who joined<br />
the train for a cool ride through the Ralston 4th<br />
of July parade. The city was out in full force. It<br />
was great to see such a turn out on a hot day. As<br />
always the pre-parade “vittles” were delicious!<br />
We still have a few more parades, Carson,<br />
IA on <strong>August</strong> 4th. They always have yummy<br />
fixings at the oasis afterwards, so come on out<br />
and enjoy a “down home good time” in Carson.<br />
Then CSSA <strong>August</strong> 9th, 10th, & 11th in Cedar<br />
Rapids. Look forward to seeing everyone<br />
there. The Millard parade is <strong>August</strong> 25th.<br />
In closing here are some words for thought:<br />
if the youth of today really listened to their<br />
elders of yesterday, would history repeat<br />
itself? Hmm.<br />
Be kind to your fellow man, it may be the<br />
only chance you get.<br />
Past Masters<br />
By: Mel Morton<br />
Wow where did the summer go? It has gone<br />
by fast. On July 8th the Past Masters Club<br />
had their annual BBQ out at Cooper Village.<br />
We had a good turnout with about 30 in<br />
attendance. I would like to thank Charlie and<br />
Jeffrey for cooking and to Carl for making the<br />
arrangements and getting the steaks and sides.<br />
Our program was presented by our High Priest<br />
& Prophet Gary Unger who talked about the<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong>rs Hospitals for Children. If you haven’t<br />
visited a <strong>Shrine</strong> Hospital you need to do so. It is<br />
amazing what they can do for the kids. Thanks<br />
Gary for your program and reminding us why<br />
we have fun with a purpose. Also in attendance<br />
from the divan was Past Potentate and Treasurer<br />
Jim Parks, Sr. We always appreciate Divan<br />
members taking time out of their schedule to<br />
attend our meetings.<br />
Our next meeting will be October 13th at the<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong>. The program is pending at this point but<br />
several ideas have been mentioned. Watch the<br />
Hot Sands for more information.<br />
The Past Masters Club is a social club open<br />
to all past masters and current masters that<br />
are <strong>Shrine</strong> members. We meet quarterly and<br />
our dues are $5.00 a year. If you would like to<br />
join, contact Mel Morton at 402-896-8121 or<br />
mmorton@tconl.com.<br />
Remember to support your lodges, other<br />
clubs and units. Together we all have fun while<br />
helping the children.<br />

July…aaah July, what does a Pirate do<br />
in July? Well there is certainly July 4th to<br />
celebrate our nation’s independence and<br />
fireworks that could be seen all over Omaha<br />
and Council Bluffs while one relaxes. And<br />
there is looking forward to attending the<br />
upcoming Pirates meeting on the 4th Monday<br />
of July at 6:30 pm at the <strong>Tangier</strong> Center but<br />
other than that, well Pirates do what Pirates<br />
do best. You know what pirates do best, don’t<br />
you? If not, then come on down to the docks<br />
at the <strong>Tangier</strong> Center on July 23rd and meet<br />
the Mates and learn what Pirates do best and<br />
maybe join the crew and embark on some<br />
fun.<br />
Remember CSSA is not far away, and<br />
any help would be greatly appreciated from<br />
the crew to support our Illustrious Sir Greg<br />
and his Lady Donna in their year and as the<br />
founding member and Admiral of the Pirates.<br />

<strong>Tangier</strong> “hot sands”<br />
Legion of Honor<br />
By: Mark Dreier, Cmdr.<br />
BRAVO ZULU to Illustrious<br />
Sir Gregg and all the Divan for the<br />
outstanding July cookout and joint meeting<br />
with the Ladies. Lady Debbie really liked it.<br />
BRAVO ZULU to our Color Guard and<br />
Drummer Rick for coming out in the heat,<br />
and participating in the 4th of July Parade<br />
in Ralston. It was HOT! It was so hot,<br />
firecrackers were lighting themselves. That’s<br />
how hot it was.<br />
PLAN FOR THE MAN: <strong>August</strong> 4th is our<br />
next parade in Carson, IA. Brother Tom Craig<br />
will chauffer the LOH there in the van which<br />
will be leaving the <strong>Shrine</strong> Center at 0800. If<br />
you need a ride be there on time please.<br />
CSSA, <strong>August</strong> 8th, Cedar Rapids, IA.<br />
Great town, friendly people, sure to be a great<br />
long weekend get-away. Schedule of events<br />
is on the CSSA web site. Wednesday night,<br />
<strong>August</strong> 8th, <strong>Tangier</strong> LOH dinner is at the Ox<br />
Yoke Inn, 4420 220th Trail, Amana, Iowa.<br />
That’s about a 30 minute drive from the hotel<br />
and a great place to eat. Thursday is a busy<br />
day for us. All of our events and activities are<br />
on this day. Friday is open and Saturday the<br />
big parade. It’s not too late to register; hope<br />
to see you there.<br />
September’s meeting is currently set for<br />
the 4th. Brother Dan Daniels and Lady Faye<br />
have expressed interest in hosting our annual<br />
LOH picnic at their home in Bellevue. Still<br />
working on the logistics, more information<br />
will be put out at CSSA.<br />
September 21st, we will hold a POW / MIA<br />
ceremony at the <strong>Shrine</strong> Center. If you have<br />
never been to one, try to make it. You won’t<br />
forget it. October’s meeting we are planning<br />
a Flag Retirement ceremony at the <strong>Shrine</strong><br />
Center. Still trying to get a burn permit from<br />
the city. Wish me luck.<br />
July’s Military Trivia Answer: What the<br />
Wiener Schnitzel does BRAVO ZULU<br />
mean? It is an International Naval Signal<br />
Code adopted when NATO was created<br />
in 1949. During WWII each Allied Navy<br />
had their own codes and signals. Now the<br />
NATO country Navies use this when in joint<br />
operations. “BZ” or Bravo Zulu, simply<br />
means “JOB WELL DONE”<br />
Next Month’s Military Trivia Question:<br />
Which <strong>Tangier</strong> Legion of Honor member<br />
served on two continents fighting the Nazis<br />
and has received the the Bronze Star and a<br />
couple of Purple Hearts?<br />
By: Noble Don<br />
MO-RI<br />
It is hard to imagine that the Club has<br />
been dark for almost two months. However;<br />
as this article is being put together we are<br />
looking anxiously ahead to Thursday,<br />
<strong>August</strong> 16, 2012 when again President<br />
Richard will wrap his gavel and we will<br />
be underway again for the second half of<br />
what has already proved to be a great year.<br />
If you have wondered what MO-RI is all<br />
about, this would be the evening to stop by<br />
and see for yourself. Thursday, <strong>August</strong> 16,<br />
2012 at the American Legion Club in Blair<br />
NE, MO-RI will be holding our annual<br />
Steak Fry with all of the trimmings. Social<br />
hour begins any time after 6:00 pm and the<br />
steaks are off the grill and on your plates<br />
at 7:00 pm. This is truly one of our top<br />
meetings of the <strong>Shrine</strong> Year and we are<br />
encouraging members to invite friends<br />
and potential Masons. It is a great evening<br />
of fellowship and fun.<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> Bowl<br />
By: Diesel Dave<br />
Well hello everybody! Is it really <strong>August</strong>?<br />
It’s a busy month for the Unit. We have our<br />
bus hauling volunteers at the Cox Classic<br />
Golf Tournament Aug 2nd – 5th, so we will<br />
miss the Carson Parade. Hopefully Charley,<br />
one of our newest members, can still find<br />
refreshments there even though the bus<br />
isn’t… There is always the world famous<br />
Hwy 92 watering hole, Charley, if all else<br />
fails!<br />
Then it’s time for CSSA. Wow, is that early<br />
this year! I hear they moved it up because<br />
there is a football game close by in September.<br />
I didn’t realize that Iowa football was that big<br />
of a deal!<br />
The Millard parade is Aug 25th and we’ll<br />
be back in for that one. Right after the parade<br />
is our annual Unit picnic. Thanks to Karleen<br />
(ok, and Arnie) for allowing us hold it at their<br />
place again this year. Now if we can just keep<br />
Kenny from getting into any trouble we’ll be<br />
good. Hope to see you all there. Remember<br />
to bring a chair and a game if you would like.<br />
<strong>August</strong> is also time for us to get prepared<br />
for our Annual Big Red Dinners. If you would<br />
like tickets please contact Dean Abels. See<br />
you all again next month.<br />

Bandsmen for the fine attendance<br />
and great performances at our<br />
Stated Meetings. If you show<br />

up. Our fellow bandsmen V. Kaye Ramsey,<br />
Don Kaye, Carl Highman, and Dave Krecek<br />
continue to recuperate, and we hope to have<br />
them back full time with the band soon.<br />

Band Practices have been cancelled until<br />
September, we will continue to play at<br />
parades, Stated Meetings, impromptu<br />
events and practices in small groups. In<br />
addition, various members of the Band will<br />
continue to entertain at various Homes for<br />
Seniors. The Band is always looking for<br />
band instrumentalists. This summer is your<br />
opportunity to sit down and play with an<br />
informal, small band group. We will supply<br />
the music and stands, and maybe even find<br />
you an instrument, if needed. If you’re<br />
interested, please contact Jim at (402) 496-<br />
2691 or jradone@cox.net.<br />

Bandsmen playing as the Central States<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> Association Band on <strong>August</strong> 9th,<br />
10th, and 11th in Cedar Rapids, IA. The<br />
Famous <strong>Tangier</strong> Marching Band will also<br />
keep the Color Guard in step during the<br />

Dear Units and Clubs,<br />
I want to ask each of you if you<br />
would be willing to assist in a<br />
project that would allow for the<br />
retaining wall at our entrance to<br />
be rebuilt. This project is one of the<br />
items on the Potentate’s wish list<br />
that was brought to our attention<br />
in a meeting. The cost of this project<br />
is between $7,000 and $8,000.<br />
The Mobile Nobles will be donating<br />
$1,000 toward this and would<br />
greatly appreciate any amount of<br />
support from the units and clubs. If<br />
this is something your unit or club<br />
would like to support, please send<br />
checks made out to Mobile Nobles,<br />
in care of me, Bill Redmond at<br />

grounds as in years past with a 10:30 am start. From Highway 92, go north on S. Commercial St. to North Ave. & turn<br />
left into the grounds. Oasis afterwards will be at the Community Center as usual, hosted by Coral Lodge No. 430.<br />
Special thanks go out to our Masonic brethren there for the hospitality.<br />
Then we are off to Cedar Rapids, Iowa for CSSA 2012. The parade is Saturday, <strong>August</strong> 11th at 9:00 am. The parade<br />
will be entirely on the Kirkwood Community College campus. As usual, the Provost will line everyone up at the<br />
hotel and we will caravan as a group to the lineup area. Commander of Units Mark Batchelder and I will know more<br />
after the Parade Marshal meeting on Thursday and information will be posted in the hospitality room as soon as it’s<br />
available. More information can be found on the official website - www.elkahir.org/cssa2012.shtml.<br />
Saturday, <strong>August</strong> 24th is the Millard Days parade with lineup at 10:00 am with an 11:00 am start time. We are in our<br />
usual location on S. 131st St. by Western Bowl. Oasis afterwards will be back at <strong>Tangier</strong>.<br />
September has us on the road to Schulyer on Monday the 3rd (Labor Day), Plattsmouth on Saturday the 8th, and we<br />
wrap up the parade season on Saturday the 15th in Nebraska City.<br />
For the latest, up-to-date parade information (dates, times, line-up areas and Oasis locations), there are several<br />
options besides the Hot Sands - which for publishing/production reasons is outdated by time you read it. Check our<br />
website www.tangiershrine.com or www.tangieronline.org and click on the Parades tab on the left side of the screen.<br />
For those less computer savvy, the latest parade schedule will be printed out and hanging on the bulletin boards in the<br />
hallway outside and inside the Lounge. I would ask, however, that these copies stay at <strong>Tangier</strong> and are put back when<br />
you are done. Feel free to jot down the information on your calendar or ask the nice Ladies in the office to make you<br />
a copy. ‘Til the next parade…<br />
