Potentate’s Report<br />

Spring certainly has taken it’s time<br />

arriving this year however; through<br />

rain or snow the Divan has been<br />

extremely busy since January 11th. We<br />

have attended eleven Installations, a<br />

couple of Official/Ladies Nights and<br />

several excellent Shrine and Masonic<br />

gatherings, celebrations and an excellent<br />

Shrine/Masonic Showcase.<br />

On Sunday, March 17th we had the<br />

great pleasure of witnessing the Omar<br />

Temple No. 111, Daughters of the Nile Installation of<br />

Officers and the crowning of Queen Evelyn Hawkins. The<br />

ritual and ceremonies were absolutely top-notch and it was<br />

an honour to be included in this special event. Good luck<br />

to all and to Past Queen Sandra Rank – it was indeed a<br />

pleasure sharing leadership time with you at <strong>Mocha</strong>.<br />

In early April, at our Grand Lodge (Ontario Leaders<br />

Seminar) the Potentates of the three Ontario Shrine Temples<br />

and our Grand Master M.W. Bro. D. Garry Dowling signed<br />

a 4-part agreement. This agreement will now permit the ‘Be<br />

A Shriner Now’ logo or website link to be included in all<br />

Craft Lodge summons, along with the contact information<br />

for the governing Shrine Temples. This novel membership<br />

idea was put together by <strong>Mocha</strong>’s hard working Membership<br />

Committee including Noble Shayne Eldridge under the<br />

direction of Noble Harry Hewbank leading the way. I thank<br />

each and every one of the Committee for their hard work,<br />

dedication and for showing <strong>Mocha</strong> as leading the way in<br />

membership development province-wide.<br />

Saturday, April 13th witnessed two major Masonic and<br />

Shrine-Mason events. In the afternoon, Past Potentate<br />

George Sims orchestrated an inaugural and most successful<br />

Shrine/Masonic Showcase in Chatham – highlighted by<br />

the entertainment of Shrine Patient Ambassador Jeremy<br />

Gabriel from Quebec. The event was well presented and<br />

attended and congratulations go out to Ill. Sir Sims on your<br />

never ending search to attract more <strong>Shriners</strong>. In the evening,<br />

the London Masonic Districts hosted their Grand Master’s<br />

Reception. Over 350 Masons and Ladies were treated to a<br />

most entertaining night and it proved to be a most fitting<br />

tribute to our Grand Master and Lady Wendy.<br />

By the time you receive this issue, the <strong>Mocha</strong> Ball will have<br />

taken place and I thank all of you that attended and all those<br />

that helped to make it possible. The <strong>May</strong> 8th Stated meeting<br />

will also be history and I thank Imp. Sir Jerry Gantt for his<br />

attendance.<br />

Our next Clubs/Units Seminar is scheduled for June 1st<br />

at <strong>Mocha</strong> – followed the next weekend by the Spring<br />

Ceremonial in London June 7–8th. This would be a great<br />

opportunity to bring a new Noble into the world’s greatest<br />

Philanthropy. Thanks to Boris, George, Stew and First<br />

Lady Deb for their hard work in putting this event on.<br />

Look for the Shrine flyer in the London Community<br />

News on the Thursday before the Ceremonial.<br />

In July, the Divan and several other members of <strong>Mocha</strong>,<br />

including our Town Crier Ill. Sir George Sims and<br />

the <strong>Mocha</strong> Jeepsters are off to Imperial Sessions in<br />

Indianapolis. It appears that one of the big issues facing<br />

the delegates will be the state of conditions between<br />

<strong>Shriners</strong> International and the Grand Masters of Arkansas<br />

and South Carolina and the fallout that may occur as a<br />

result. As evidenced above, we at <strong>Mocha</strong> enjoy a close and<br />

constructive relationship with our Grand Master and it is<br />

a real honour for me to share the front cover with <strong>Mocha</strong>’s<br />

own M.W. Bro. D. Garry Dowling, Grand Master of the<br />

Grand Lodge of Canada, in the Province of Ontario!<br />

Recorder’s Corner<br />

by Bill Butcher<br />

Nobles, Greetings from the<br />

Recorder’s Office<br />

Here it is into April already. Can you<br />

believe it? We still do not have the<br />

best of weather as of yet, with rain,<br />

rain, rain this makes me think that<br />

I am still living in Britain.<br />

I would like to take this opportunity<br />

to thank Noble Dwight Coughlan<br />

and his team for all their hard work and the excellent<br />

job of our most recent <strong>Mocha</strong> News. Congratulations<br />

to a job well done!<br />

As you know the <strong>Mocha</strong> Ball is just around the corner<br />

and this makes me think that the good weather is also<br />

right around the corner. We are looking forward to<br />

attending the gala again as it is being held right here at<br />

the Centre in our newly renovated banquet hall. I am<br />

sure the event will be enjoyed by all those who attend.<br />

In about a month’s time, the Spring Ceremonial<br />

will be upon us with the first section being held at<br />

Dufferin Hall and the second section being held at the<br />

<strong>Mocha</strong> Shrine Centre. All meals are being prepared<br />

by Delectable Eats and held at <strong>Mocha</strong> other than the<br />

Ladies’ Luncheon to be held at Dufferin Hall. If you<br />

do not have your tickets as of yet, they are available in<br />

the main office at <strong>Mocha</strong> until <strong>May</strong> 31st. If you are<br />

attending the Spring Ceremonial, remember to bring<br />

your current dues card. If you have not yet paid this<br />

year’s dues, I recommend you send payment as soon as<br />

possible. Please remember, you can always pay your dues<br />

online. Just visit our website at www.mochashriners.org.<br />

From June 30 to July 4, <strong>2013</strong>, the 140th Imperial<br />

Session will take place in Indianapolis, Indiana. I hope<br />

to see many of you down there. If any <strong>Mocha</strong> Units<br />

wishing to attend have not already registered, please do<br />

so as soon as possible.<br />

Since summer is just around the corner, Lady Sally and I<br />

would like to take this opportunity to wish you and your<br />

families a happy and safe summer. As always my office<br />

door is open any time I am there, so drop in and sit for a<br />

couple of minutes and have a small chat.<br />

Y.I.T.F.<br />

MOCHANEWS |<br />

from the<br />

EDITOR’S DESK<br />

I welcome you to the second edition of the New<br />

<strong>Mocha</strong> News. Thank you to all who wrote to me<br />

in regards to the new look.<br />

As we continue to reach out to the membership<br />

I was wondering if the <strong>Mocha</strong> News is the right<br />

platform. In today’s ever changing environment<br />

I wonder if we should be looking at new ways to<br />

communicate. If you feel that the <strong>Mocha</strong> News<br />

is the right vehicle, send me a note saying so, if<br />

you would like to see change, send me a note with<br />

your ideas. If half of our membership would like<br />

to receive the <strong>Mocha</strong> News electronically we can<br />

save money there. If they would like to see the<br />

<strong>Mocha</strong> News only 3 times a year we could save<br />

money there. Send me your thoughts and let’s<br />

continue to evolve.<br />

I put the following challenge out to our Nobles of<br />

the North, I would like to hear from you. If you<br />

have any stories, pictures, or would like to talk<br />

about an event that your holding please contact<br />

me. We need to know what you’re up to.<br />

Lastly Nobles, it is parade season. Please ride,<br />

walk, and participate safely.<br />

Enjoy your summer.<br />

Chaplain’s Chat<br />

Rev. Canon Michael Farr<br />

Dear Noble.<br />

I hope you have noticed that I wear two Fezs at <strong>Mocha</strong>,<br />

Chaplain and Donor Relations. I write to you for this<br />

<strong>May</strong> issue of the <strong>Mocha</strong> News wearing my “Donor<br />

Relations” fez. In Particular I wish to write about<br />

planned giving. All too often we give left-overs, which<br />

is the money we find in our pockets when we meet<br />

a Shriner at the Mall selling the ‘seasonal product’.<br />

Planned giving is the Stewardship of God’s gifts to<br />

us – it is when we sit down and intentionally plan to<br />

give money. In this case I am talking about <strong>Shriners</strong><br />

Hospitals for Children – Canada. Because we are<br />

<strong>Shriners</strong>, we have an interest in our own philanthropy,<br />

which has one of the best records for a high percentage<br />

of your dollars getting to our Hospitals!<br />

Part of planned giving could be a legacy in your will,<br />

which I trust you have. If you die without a will you are<br />

said to be “intestate”. That almost sounds like a disease<br />

that you would not wish to catch. If you do not have<br />

a will the public trustee takes over and looks after our<br />

St. Marys Golf &<br />

Country Club<br />

1:00 pm Shotgun Start<br />

4-man Scramble<br />

Entry Fee: $100. per golfer<br />

Fee includes 18 holes<br />

of golf, cart and supper<br />

Prizes<br />

estate giving money to all the relatives who come out<br />

of the woodwork. (if this is not true I am sure to hear<br />

from Noble Fred MacKewn our <strong>Mocha</strong> solicitor.) So<br />

plan now where your money will go. Plan with your<br />

family so that they know where you are leaving money.<br />

A few years ago, a Shriner left a large legacy to <strong>Mocha</strong>.<br />

His children contested the will and <strong>Mocha</strong> ended up<br />

with nothing.<br />

Another part of planned giving may be life insurance.<br />

The Shrine can be named the beneficiary of a policy that<br />

is paid up. For younger <strong>Shriners</strong> it is possible to buy life<br />

insurance and name the Shrine the beneficiary and then<br />

the premiums are a tax deductible charitable donation.<br />

I had better quit before I start writing of things I<br />

have no knowledge. See your own lawyer and financial<br />

planner for advice on how to do these things. All<br />

material gifts are gifts from God and we are only<br />

stewards of them while we are alive. Plan for the<br />

distribution of these Gifts after you are finished<br />

with them.<br />

To God be the Glory<br />

<strong>Mocha</strong> SPRING<br />

CEREMONIAL <strong>2013</strong><br />

HONOUREES<br />

Andy Anderson<br />

It has been a time-honoured tradition at the <strong>Mocha</strong> Ceremonials to name the<br />

“Class of Candidates” after an outstanding Shriner or group of <strong>Shriners</strong> in the<br />

local area.<br />

I am proud this year, to name the Spring Ceremonial Class after three London<br />

<strong>Shriners</strong>, each of whom has had a large influence on my Masonic and Shrine<br />

journeys. They are Noble Ron Sewell, Noble Andy Anderson and Noble Joe Scott<br />

and not surprisingly are all members of my Mother Lodge – St. John’s Lodge No. 20.<br />

Together, these Nobles have a century and a half of Masonic and Shrine service<br />

in the London area and each of them, in his own special way, has provided strong<br />

leadership, knowledge, encouragement and support to me and many, many others<br />

– for as long as I can remember!<br />

MOCHANEWS |<br />

RoyAL SCOTS O’<strong>Mocha</strong><br />

The Royal Scots enjoyed another<br />

busy year in 2012. Our season<br />

started in January when we were<br />

invited to play for the Scottish<br />

Appreciation Night so ably hosted<br />

by Kilwinning Lodge, always an<br />

entertaining evening. We also<br />

enjoyed the Shrine Club’s Robbie<br />

Burns Dinner. It’s a good thing we<br />

are all haggis aficionados!<br />

We spent our winter practices<br />

getting ready for the Kiwanis<br />

competitions under the leadership<br />

of our music director Ken Webster.<br />

In April, Don Gale, Winston<br />

Kooistra, and John Lynes travelled<br />

to Michigan City, Indiana to attend<br />

a Piping and Drumming Seminar<br />

sponsored by The Orak Shrine<br />

Club. (We won’t report on the<br />

actual trip… it’s an inside story!!<br />

Suffice it to say some time was<br />

spent at the side of an interstate).<br />

In June we once again played for<br />

Kilwinning’s Sunrise Service and<br />

Breakfast. We always look forward<br />

to one of the best breakfast buffets<br />

around. We were also pleased to<br />

play at the Spring Ceremonial held<br />

in Strathroy.<br />

During the summer we played at<br />

the Bothwell Car Show, and in the<br />

Wheatley Fish Festival Parade. We<br />

also marched in the Annual Labour<br />

Day Parade in Sarnia.<br />

A mid -September weekend found<br />

the band competing at the GLSA<br />

held in Mason, Ohio. We were<br />

really pleased that every member<br />

who competed won a medal,<br />

AND… drum roll please…<br />

we won the trophy in<br />

the band competition!<br />

All this success fuelled<br />

our enthusiasm when<br />

we played at both the<br />

Thorndale Fall Fair and<br />

Wallacetown Fair.<br />

We had a bit of a break<br />

in October while we<br />

readied ourselves for<br />

our usual busy Santa<br />

Claus Parade schedule.<br />

Scottish Appreciation Night<br />

It started in November when we<br />

participated in the Christmas<br />

festivities in Dutton and enjoyed<br />

a Christmas drink back at John<br />

McIntyre’s house. Next we were<br />

hosted in our annual pre-parade<br />

get together at Jim Carmichael’s<br />

which warms us up for the West<br />

Lorne Parade. November ended<br />

with us playing an evening parade<br />

in Parkhill, where we are hosted<br />

a to a post parade supper at the<br />

Legion. (Did we mention how<br />

good their sandwiches are?) Our<br />

last parade for the season was<br />

in Bothwell… always dangerous<br />

as our wives go shopping at the<br />

December also saw us enjoying<br />

our annual Christmas party at the<br />

Shrine Club. We had cocktails<br />

while we visited with one another,<br />

followed by a delicious turkey<br />

dinner. After dinner we always<br />

enjoy some good old fashioned<br />

music provided by Charlie<br />

Thomson, Don Gale, John<br />

McIntyre, and Jim Carmichael.<br />

The culmination of the evening<br />

was the horse race game which<br />

has become so popular that we<br />

now have simultaneous events to<br />

ensure full participation!<br />

January saw some changes to<br />

the Band executive. Our Band<br />

Director for the last few years has<br />

been Charlie Thomson, who has<br />

decided to step aside. His role<br />

will be ably carried out by Don<br />

Gale. Stew Watt has finished his<br />

time as secretary and his shoes<br />

Tenor Drummer Tex Colter, Piper Don<br />

Gale and Side Drummer Winston<br />

Kooistra celebrate success at GLSA<br />

Did we say we were proud?!!!<br />

2012-<strong>2013</strong><br />

will be filled by Winston Kooistra.<br />

Our outgoing treasurer, Andy<br />

Longridge has turned the books<br />

over to Dave Kincaid. We wish to<br />

thank Charlie, Andy and Stew for<br />

their contributions and wish our<br />

new executive members all the<br />

best in their positions.<br />

Remember, if you are stirred by<br />

the skirl of the pipes or the beat of<br />

the drums please join us at one of<br />

our practices (second and fourth<br />

Tuesdays of the month). To find<br />

out more about our band, feel free<br />

to call Don Gale (519.644.0131) or<br />

Winston Kooistra (519.951.8621).<br />

HILLbILLy SHRINERS<br />

Hillbilly Clan 59 recognizes an outstanding Shriner:<br />

Cuzzin’ George Hillman<br />

Cuzzin’ George has been actively<br />

involved in Clan 59 for over 25 years.<br />

He is a Past Raban and has served<br />

as Chairman of many of the Clan’s<br />

Committees. George is accompanied<br />

by his wife, Mama Bonnie, to<br />

practically all afternoon and evening<br />

parades, and supports him traveling<br />

to numerous conventions and other<br />

Hillbilly festivities.<br />

CONCERT Band<br />

Musicians always remember their<br />

first music teacher. In my case it<br />

was my father who taught me to<br />

play the saxophone at the age of<br />

eight. As I progressed through<br />

high school I was inspired by<br />

other teachers who noticed that,<br />

although late for rehearsals, I was<br />

never late for a performance.<br />

Now I am inspired by my latest<br />

teacher, Don McKellar, our<br />

Concert Band’s conductor.<br />

Don is a retired music professor<br />

form Western University and has<br />

contributed greatly to the music<br />

scene in London and the province.<br />

On occasion, George cleans up well for<br />

formal events. But, one of a Hillbilly’s<br />

greatest fears is to be caught in new<br />

formal wear.<br />

Director of <strong>Mocha</strong>’s Concert Band receives international recognition<br />

We are now proud to announce<br />

that Don will be honored this<br />

June with a ceremony in Toronto<br />

for his contributions to music<br />

and the influence on hundreds of<br />

musicians across Canada.<br />

Don will be inducted into Lambda<br />

Iota (Ontario) chapter of Phi<br />

Beta Mu, the International<br />

Bandmasters Fraternity. This<br />

prestigious fraternity has been in<br />

existence since its inception in<br />

Texas in 1938.<br />

Congratulations Don on receiving<br />

this well-deserved honour and for<br />

improving our concert band while<br />

being my most recent teacher.<br />

Terry Toll, Saxophonist<br />

Cuzzin’ George is the Clan’s Parade<br />

Chairman and is often seen giving<br />

directions on how the Hillbilly Parade<br />

Vehicles are to be decorated. (What<br />

side is each of those flags supposes<br />

to go on?)<br />

Hillbilly Clan 59, extends to George<br />

and Bonnie, a tremendous ”Thank<br />

You” for your support in the past,<br />

in the present, and for many years<br />

in the future.<br />

The Brantford Shrine Club had the pleasure of University of Toronto<br />

general meeting to discuss Tip of the Hat: Community, Identity and<br />

Culture in Brant County. They brought with them pictures of an old<br />

style Fez that was donated to the local museum. Noble Ray Bamsey<br />

loaned to the project a similar Fez from the early 50’s that had<br />

been worn by one of our past presidents, Noble Clark Gothard. We<br />

showed them pictures of past potentates from Brantford Shrine<br />

Club and provided them a collective recap of our knowledge on<br />

the Shriner’s Fez. They were impressed with the $100 Million Dollar<br />

pin and noticed that every member seemed to have one. The<br />

researchers congratulated the Shrine organization for the good<br />

work and thanked us for providing them with information on the<br />

Shriner’s Fez. They took several pictures of members wearing<br />

their Fez and were amazed with all the different Shrine units<br />

represented on the Fez.<br />

Earth Day Recycling Event<br />

The Waterloo Shrine Club hosted<br />

their first ever, Earth Day Green<br />

Recycling Event on Saturday,<br />

April 6th. This was a free<br />

electronic waste collection event<br />

for the community. Returnable<br />

wine, liquor and beer bottles,<br />

and aluminum cans were also<br />

accepted. The recycling company<br />

Greentec supplied the collection<br />

bin and paid the club for all the<br />

electronic waste that was received.<br />

Noble Ross Maclean spearheaded<br />

this endeavour, assisted by other<br />

members of the club and several<br />

students from Waterloo Collegiate<br />

Institute and Huron Heights<br />

Secondary School.<br />

Noble Maclean stated, “We had<br />

a very good response from the<br />

community and the club will<br />

definitely do this again next year.<br />

This not only keeps hazardous<br />

electronic waste out of our<br />

landfills, it is a good example of<br />

a fund raising event that helps<br />

the community, gets students<br />

involved, and raises public<br />

awareness of the Shrine.”<br />

The Waterloo Shrine Club also has<br />

an ongoing Cell Phone Recycling<br />

program. In coordination with<br />

Greentec, the club has collection<br />

boxes at various businesses and<br />

institutions around the KW area<br />

and are paid for each used cell<br />

Masonic Shrine Showcase<br />

April 13, <strong>2013</strong> / Synopsis and Follow-Up<br />

MOCHANEWS | <strong>May</strong> <strong>2013</strong><br />

The Masons and Nobles of Chatham District took<br />

the initiative recently in an attempt to<br />

• EDUCATE the general public and young men<br />

about the Masonic fraternity.<br />

• STIMULATE interest in what we do.<br />

• REJUVENATE our activities in the public eye.<br />

• CELEBRATE programmes, Jeremy Gabriel,<br />

Ahcom sponsored children.<br />

• CULTIVATE and develop to a greater extent the<br />

image of ALL Masonic bodies.<br />

• MOTIVATE young men to continue our<br />

tremendous legacy.<br />

• ACCOMMODATE and make use of the time of<br />

young family men.<br />

• ILLUSTRATE we can work together for a purpose.<br />

• GENERATE a greater feeling of brotherhood.<br />

• WE ANTICIPATE masons of all levels<br />

participating.<br />

• WE APPRECIATE your personal attention and<br />

attendance.<br />

We put together a MASONIC SHRINE<br />

SHOWCASE. We rented the Chatham St. Clair<br />

Capitol Theatre on Saturday, April 13. This was a<br />

first class facility for both presenters and audience.<br />

We intended to have a programme starting at 1:00<br />

in the afternoon until 4:00 involving many aspects<br />

of masonry and the Shrine. Admission was free with<br />

donations accepted. It is not a fund raiser but a public<br />

relations effort.<br />

Shrine Units were invited to help by making this a<br />

blueprint for future SHOWCASES by providing:<br />

SHRINE UNITS and CLUBS<br />

1. Parts of your unit for display in parking spaces.<br />

2. Description of history and activities of your unit.<br />

3. Your meeting times.<br />

4. How to contact your unit for information.<br />

MASONIC LODGES<br />

1. A performance/explanation of approximately<br />

20 minutes.<br />

2. 20 minute segments have been allotted from<br />

1:30 to 4:00<br />

3. Breaks have been scheduled for circulation and<br />

audience movement.<br />

4. Bands are most welcome for stand still<br />

performances.<br />

We had to schedule this date for the availability of the<br />

facility and the Shrine Patient Ambassador Jeremy<br />

Gabriel. We hope this activity will become a stepping<br />

stone not a road block.<br />

Worth the time. Worth the travel.<br />

Worth the effort.<br />

We acknowledge the support of the District Deputy<br />

Grand Master, the Potentate of MOCHA <strong>Shriners</strong>,<br />

the President of AHCOM Shrine Club, the Members<br />

of AHCOM Shrine Club, the financial support of<br />

Moramos Shrine Club, The individuals of Units and<br />

Clubs that supported the idea of doing something<br />

positive for Membership and Public Relations.<br />

We established a VISION committee<br />

(Very Interested <strong>Shriners</strong> Identifying Our Needs)<br />

This committee met and decided to go forward<br />

quickly while the iron was hot and enthusiasm<br />

could be generated rather than shelved to be done<br />

later. Communication through electronic media and<br />

personal visitations to district lodges explaining our<br />

purpose and to act posthaste was commenced. Teams<br />

attended lodge meetings to present and explain<br />

purpose for the benefit of all Masonic bodies. We<br />

requested active support from the grass root level.<br />

We contacted, through various media, the Clubs<br />

and Units of MOCHA in the area requesting their<br />

support to take part in displaying their specific<br />

contribution to the Shrine.<br />

We were happy with those who responded positively,<br />

and felt that the rest missed a great opportunity<br />

to participate. We were able to contact a Unit of<br />

Elf Khurafeh <strong>Shriners</strong> of Saginaw, Michigan and<br />

borrow two of their Tall Unit figures which were well<br />

received.<br />

We invited the Membership Committee of <strong>Mocha</strong>,<br />

the Public Relations committee, the Daughters of<br />

the Nile, DeMolay, St. John’s Lodge #9 Prince Hall<br />

Masons to take part in the Day’s activities.<br />

We advertised through all the media available,<br />

newspapers, paid radio and newspaper ads, invited<br />

to radio talk shows, poster media, personal cards of<br />

explanation and invitation to the day’s activities.<br />

We have had a meeting re the accomplishments and<br />

the shortfalls of the day and will be addressing the<br />

concerns that have arisen.<br />

who have not paid their dues and to assist in keeping the<br />

contact info for each Noble up to date.<br />

On behalf of our Chairman, Noble Harry Hewbank,<br />

greetings from the Membership Committee. The Spring<br />

Ceremonial is soon upon us – what have you done to<br />

bring in a candidate? I know some of you are working<br />

hard and trying – thanks!<br />

Membership is our<br />

Number One Priority!<br />

A big thank you to the AHCOM<br />

Shrine Club who put together<br />

a fantastic Masonic Shrine<br />

Showcase in Chatham on April<br />

13th. I really hope that we get<br />

some new brethren and Nobles<br />

coming out of this initiative.<br />

We are all in this together.<br />

Each Club and Unit should be<br />

undertaking some activities to<br />

bring in new Nobles. We have 21 Clubs in <strong>Mocha</strong> and<br />

if each Club was able to bring in two candidates for<br />

both the Spring and Fall Ceremonial, this would mean<br />

84 new Nobles in <strong>Mocha</strong>! The Units and Shrine Clubs<br />

in a particular area should take Noble Chris Bradley<br />

(Waterloo Shrine Club) up on the Blue Buddy Challenge!<br />

If you don’t know about this, contact Noble Chris at<br />

christopher_s_bradley@yahoo.com.<br />

When you are at Lodge, remember it is as simple as<br />

asking the question to your fellow brethren ‘Have you<br />

considered joining the Shrine?’. Don’t wait for them to<br />

ask you – ask them!<br />

You should soon each see the Be A Shriner Now logo<br />

in your Lodge summons. We have the support of our<br />

Grand Master, Most Worshipful Brother Garry Dowling<br />

who along with the Potentates of <strong>Mocha</strong>, Tunis and<br />

Rameses signed a letter being sent to all District Deputy<br />

Grand Masters. This letter asks them to communicate to<br />

all the Lodge Secretaries in their District information<br />

about Be A Shriner Now that can be put into their Lodge<br />

summons.<br />

The Membership Committee is looking forward to<br />

working with our new Public Relations Chairman,<br />

Noble Jeff Smith in getting the Be A Shriner Now logo<br />

and information out into the public and increasing the<br />

visibility of our Shrine in our community.<br />

Noble John Parker (Stratford-on-Avon Shrine Club)<br />

Our Potentate asked each Shrine Club to appoint a<br />

Membership Representative to work as part of our<br />

Membership Committee. Thank you to each Noble!<br />

If your Club is not listed here, let me know!<br />

AYLMER – Noble Harry Hewbank<br />

BRUCE – Noble Terry Mills<br />

CAMBRIDGE – Noble Glen Davis<br />

I will be working on the Mentor Program to increase<br />

the number of mentors we have available for possible<br />

new candidates. You can be a mentor by joining through<br />

<strong>Shriners</strong> Village.<br />

June 6th is International <strong>Shriners</strong> Day. Put this on your<br />

calendar!! Make sure you wear your Shrine shirt, hat,<br />

jacket whatever that day – be proud of being a Shriner!<br />

Let everyone know!<br />

Each of you play an important role in increasing our<br />

membership – personally and as part of your Club/Unit.<br />

If you have any ideas/suggestions, let me or your Club<br />

Membership Representative know. If your Club or Unit is<br />

doing a membership initiative, please send me the details.<br />

The new 207 000 square foot hospital will feature 8<br />

floors, 2 below ground and 6 above. Our patients and<br />

families will benefit from 22 single patient rooms,<br />

meeting all the highest standards for infection control.<br />

We have planned for several areas dedicated to families.<br />

There will be 4 operating rooms, which is double from<br />

our current facility. The new hospital will also include<br />

state of the art technology for teaching as well as<br />

expanded space dedicated to basic and clinical research.<br />

These new facilities will allow our specialists to<br />

diagnose and treat even more children with complex<br />

orthopaedic conditions coming to us from communities<br />

across Canada. We will be able to expand our research<br />

laboratories and enhance our clinical care activities in<br />

order to develop further tailored treatments. The new<br />

hospital environment will be focused on families with<br />

the additional family rooms on each level, increased<br />

space allotted to rehabilitation and ambulatory care<br />

services, day treatment and day surgery centers.<br />

Lavalin (TSX: SNC) is pleased to announce that it has<br />

officially signed a contract with <strong>Shriners</strong> Hospitals for<br />

Children for the construction of its new Montreal hospital,<br />

including the procurement, installation and commissioning<br />

of medical equipment. The new hospital will replace the<br />

existing <strong>Shriners</strong> Hospital in Montreal.<br />

Officially known as <strong>Shriners</strong> Hospitals for Children® –<br />

Canada, the hospital will have eight stories, and be linked<br />

to the new Montreal Children’s Hospital located at the<br />

McGill University Health Centre’s Glen site, allowing<br />

the two facilities to share services. It will have 22 singlepatient<br />

rooms, four operating rooms, a basic research and<br />

new clinical investigation unit, ambulatory care services<br />

and rehabilitation services, including physiotherapy and<br />

occupational therapy. The new building will be more than<br />

twice the size of the existing facility, with a surface area of<br />

approximately 20,500 square metres.<br />

“We are very pleased to have been awarded a third key<br />

project in Quebec’s health care sector,” said Charles Chebl,<br />

Executive Vice-President, SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. “This<br />

state-of-the-art health care facility will be a true model of<br />

excellence in pediatric orthopedics.”<br />

SNC-Lavalin provided structural engineering, civil<br />

engineering and pre-construction services for the project<br />

following an early services agreement between SNC-<br />

Lavalin and <strong>Shriners</strong> in <strong>May</strong> of 2011. Construction will<br />

begin in April <strong>2013</strong>, and the project is expected to be<br />

completed in the fall of 2015.<br />

SNC-Lavalin is one of the leading engineering and<br />

construction groups in the world and a major player in<br />

the ownership of infrastructure, and in the provision of<br />

operations and maintenance services. Founded in 1911,<br />

SNC-Lavalin has offices across Canada and in over 40<br />

other countries around the world, and is currently working<br />

in some 100 countries. www.snclavalin.com<br />

Kierstyn, mommy and coordinator Richard Schmidt.<br />

The world is a fabulous place for Kierstyn in the<br />

care of <strong>Shriners</strong>. The amount of care Kierstyn and<br />

myself have received is endless.<br />

Who knew a scare of bone disorder can become such<br />

an humbling experience for me. The feeling that there<br />

is a solution to Kierstyn’s extremely rare bone disorder.<br />

Our first approach by Shriner Grant Fotheringham to<br />

Shriner Richard in Kitchener. Thank you, I feel isn’t<br />

enough. Our Shrine Circus experiences have been so<br />

much fun! Kierstyn involvement with the circus, her<br />

eyes twinkle with love and laughter and secure to any<br />

man in “a red hat with sparkles, its beautiful!” as she<br />

says at three years old!<br />

From our care of travel by office assistance at <strong>Mocha</strong> in<br />

London (Jody Axford), to our stay in Montreal. Support<br />

from (Audra Smith) for our travels from the hotel to<br />

Shriner Hospital in Montreal. To the “best” Surgeon<br />

(Dr. Hamdy assistant Mario Rinaldi) orthopedic brace<br />

makers... and the social workers in Montreal.<br />

I am over the top comfortable knowing Kierstyn is in<br />

professional and educated care. We have a long road<br />

ahead but it is an easy one with <strong>Shriners</strong> by our side.<br />

A Message from<br />

Alan Madsen Imperial Potentate<br />

<strong>May</strong> <strong>2013</strong><br />

Dear Fellow Nobles,<br />

Greetings from the leadership of<br />

<strong>Shriners</strong> International and <strong>Shriners</strong><br />

Hospitals for Children. We thank<br />

you for all your efforts to promote<br />

your temples, Shrine clubs, units, and<br />

<strong>Shriners</strong> Hospitals for Children®.<br />

The 139th Imperial Session is right around the corner<br />

- June 30th through July 4th. We hope the voting<br />

representatives will be prepared to make decisions on<br />

the various legislation changes being introduced for the<br />

Iowa and Colorado Corporations.<br />

Appropriately, the session will begin with a church<br />

service on Sunday at 1 p.m. followed by the public<br />

opening ceremony at 3 p.m.<br />

There will be a night parade on Monday, July 1st<br />

stepping off at 7 p.m. The Shrine Clowns and Shrine<br />

Clown Ladies will lead the parade in hopes of setting<br />

a world record of 851 clowns in a parade! In order to<br />

comply with current bylaws the clowns and clown ladies<br />

will be ahead of the Color Guard, and this will be the<br />

called a Civic parade!<br />

First Lady Jan<br />

has planned an<br />

extraordinary luncheon<br />

for the ladies featuring<br />

a Broadway entertainer.<br />

The representatives<br />

evening will be filled<br />

with lots of FUN and<br />

a variety of music. You<br />

just might be a part of<br />

the entertainment. Tickets for the luncheon and the<br />

representative’s entertainment are available on www.<br />

imperial<strong>2013</strong>.com<br />

We thank the various ladies groups – the Daughters of<br />

the Nile, Ladies Oriental Shrine and the Shrine Guilds<br />

of America – for the millions of dollars they raise for<br />

us. They also volunteer thousands of hours for <strong>Shriners</strong><br />

Hospitals for Children.<br />

In an effort to promote more family fun and family<br />

activities legislation is being proposed from SBANA for<br />

a Shrine bylaws revision to allow ladies to participate<br />

with performing units/clubs (Bands) with the approval<br />

of the Temple Potentate. The sponsors of this proposed<br />
