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 />

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 />

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 />
furniture store!<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 />
graduate students in the Museum studies program attend our March<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 />

WATERLOO SHRINE Club<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 />
phone collected.<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 />

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 />
