We raised over $800 dollars which will be used for the Shriners Hospital for Children - Twin Cities. We have not had regularly scheduled meetings during the summer, but have been steadily working on our craft projects for our Fall Style Show and Luncheon boutique on October 13th. We will resume regular meetings in September; meetings are the 2nd and 4th Wednesday in the Aladdin Room at 10:00 am. Thanks to all of the people who have dropped off can tabs for us at the Shrine Office or given them to us at different meetings: Wes Agar; Jim & Marty Davis; Millard Public Schools; Jane Upton; Debbie Drier; and if I missed someone, I apologize because we do want you to know how much we appreciate everyone’s support of this project. 4 – Please Support Our Sponsors –
Tangier “hot sands” Chanters By: Bernie Hauber August 2012 Director’s Staff By: Joe Stom Stated Meeting Expirations Expired Earlier But Not Reported John Frederick Williams.Nov 30, 2009 Willis A. Brown..................Nov 11, 2011 Clowns By: Scott”Strypes” Robertson Hello all, I am sorry I did not have an article in July’s Hot Sands, we had a lot of gigs to do and a limited amount of help. We did a lot of paying and benefit gigs, some days were two and three gigs. Speaking of gigs we have Valentino’s as an ongoing gig and we have a lot of clowns on our roster, so let’s all get our makeup on and help out. The money being raised is going to the repairs of the fire truck. Speaking of which, Squiggles has been doing a fine job, a complete tune-up has been done, leaks have been fixed, the bench seat has been rebuilt and properly installed. We had to get new speakers as the old ones just aren’t what they use to be. The next item on the repair list will be getting the springs repaired, so it will be ready for CSSA. We have been meeting on Wednesday for skit practice. We all have some funny skits, and hopefully we will have some 3-peats on past awards. Some are trying out new costumes this year. We will have two competing for rookie clown: “Fabuless”and “P.I” - good luck fellas. Also, the unit will be making a substantial donation to the “Red Sneaker Fund”. Keep August 18th clear we will be having our summer picnic. Please contact your officers or watch your e-mail. I want to thank everyone who turned out for parades so far this season. Again I have rambled on, so I will be signing off. “So let’s get out and make some kids smile”. It is still summer and the Chanters singing schedule is still limited due to vacations. However, this month we have plans to sing for some local churches. The proposed schedule is as follows: August 5 - St. Luke United Methodist Church (where the Chanter’s director, Dr. Theis is a choir director); 11810 Burke Street in Omaha. The service that begins at 10:30 am. August 12 - Bethany Presbyterian Church (where Chanter Greg Carlson is pastor); 1900 S 7th St in Council Bluffs. The summer worship service is at 9:30 am. August 19 - Lutheran Church of the Master; 2617 S. 114th St. in Omaha. The service begins at 9:15 am. The Chanters have also begun preparations for our annual fundraiser (the Rib Feed). Tickets should be on sale by the end of August. The Chanters will probably not practice in August except briefly before the church services. Any Noble with 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. God respects me when I work; but God loves me when I sing. - Rabindranath Tagore (Nobel Prize Winner). Arab Patrol By: John Knickman The Arab Patrol made fleece tied blankets as a community project and President Phil Hardiman presented them to Children’s Hospital. They were well received and the staff commented that the patients were happy to have something to take home after their treatment. The patrol also attended the Boone and Crockett fish fry as a unit. The meal was terrific as usual and a good time was had by all. We also all had a great time at the Storm Chases baseball game in July. Charlie and Ellen Binge have offered to let us use their backyard for a gathering after the Millard Parade on August 25th. This means that the crack Arab Patrol marching men will once again hit the pavement. Our Ladies will join us for the after party, and here is the good news, you don’t have to bring food as it will be provided. Our next Arab Patrol meeting will be Monday, August 13th. This Hot Sands article comes to you from a warm sunny lakeshore in Central Missouri. We are right in the middle of a week’s stay at our cabin at the Lake of the Ozarks. It’s been an extra busy year for us this year so this is a welcome break. It has also been a very busy year for the Directors Staff. As in the past our veteran members have really made things run smoothly. But as you all know, the Directors Staff is having a huge growth spurt and we have new members really pitching in to make things happen. With the guidance of the veterans, the enthusiasm of the new members, and the hard work of all the members, we have really had a great year thus far. Not only do we get things done, we have a great time doing it. We really have a great bunch that enjoys being around each other. I know it’s an understatement but I will say it anyway, It’s good to be Directors Staff. Parade season is in full swing and as I mentioned earlier, it is going better than ever. We have some new guys that are really getting involved and having fun. I want to thank John Grant, Roger Mlady, Terry Cavin and Dave Hoffman for taking care of the Hearse and getting it stocked and to the parades. I also need to thank Joe Freeman for riding shotgun to teach the new drivers the intricacies of driving the hearse and Katy for making her world famous Bloody Marys. I should also give a special thanks to Bob Burbee and I. B. Joe for maintaining the hearse and keeping it going. Parade season isn’t the only summer activity the Directors Staff takes part in. We also run bingo for the Shrine picnic. Ron Kern headed this up again this year and John Chester helped call numbers. And again, we have a new member chipping in to make things happen. Roger Mlady picked the tent up in the shed and got it to the park. John Grant brought the Jobs Daughters again this year to call numbers and they were a big hit. Thanks everyone for another successful year with bingo. And thank you to everyone in the Directors Staff for the work you have all done to make this whole year a huge success and a whole lot of fun. If you or anyone you know would like to be a part of Directors Staff, contact me or any member of the Staff. We would love to have you. – Please Support Our Sponsors – 5
