<strong>Tangier</strong> “hot sands”<br />
Greetings Nobles and Ladies!<br />
I would like to start by thanking all of<br />
you who were able to attend <strong>Tangier</strong>’s<br />
installation. Donna and I had a<br />
wonderful night! A special THANK<br />
YOU to all of you who helped make<br />
the evening a success.<br />
We hosted Imperial Sir Mike<br />
Severe at the January stated<br />
meeting. The evening was a lot of<br />
fun; a special thank you to John Naverette and his<br />
kitchen crew for a wonderful meal.<br />
Thank you to all of the Nobles and Ladies who<br />
were able to attend our Pote’s trip to Jamaica. It was<br />
an incredible trip, we could not have asked for more. I<br />
know everyone had a great time.<br />
It’s <strong>February</strong> and of course that means it’s time<br />
for Circus! Our biggest event of the year. It will be<br />
<strong>February</strong> <strong>23</strong>-<strong>26</strong>. Set up will be Wednesday the 22nd.<br />
We can use everyone’s help. So Nobles bring your<br />
Ladies and come on down to the Circus. Don’t forget<br />
to sell those tickets and put out your yard signs.<br />
Other important events, we have a friendship<br />
dinner on <strong>February</strong> 10th so bring that new candidate<br />
out for an evening of food fun and fellowship. Nobles<br />
don’t forget <strong>February</strong> 14th is Valentine’s Day, you<br />
better get some flowers for your Lady or you’ll be in<br />
the dog house.<br />
Mark your calendar for the Potentate’s Ball<br />
Saturday March 31. I have a band that will be one<br />
to remember. Redfish island records artist Kelly<br />
McGuire. He is an island “Buffetish” kind of guy.<br />
You can find details in this issue.<br />
We have had a great start to the year, thank you<br />
all for your hard work and support. Let’s keep the<br />
momentum going. Remember <strong>Tangier</strong> <strong>Shrine</strong>rs is<br />
“Fun with a Purpose”.<br />
Fraternally Yours,<br />
Gregory P. Hadcock<br />

The Red<br />
Cross View<br />
Recently I received information regarding the dates and<br />
quotas for our Blood Drives for 2012. Our <strong>February</strong> Drive<br />
will be on the first Monday in <strong>February</strong> and our goal will<br />
be 20 pints. I would hope that we would have no problem<br />
exceeding this nominal goal. If we consider that the Bloodmobile<br />
will be open for six hours our goal can be considered as less than one<br />
pint for each 15 minute period. <strong>Tangier</strong> has had goals to reach that<br />
are much more difficult then this.<br />
Check your calendars and let me know what time would be<br />
convenient for you. Those who read this article on a regular basis<br />
know that it has been longer than one year since we met our assigned<br />
goal. With your help we will start this year in the right way. Ask your<br />
friends and family if they would join us for this Drive.<br />
I told you that I would bring you up to date on the members who<br />
have reached new levels in the Gallon Club. Here are the latest<br />
figures and I hope you will agree with them:<br />

Arab Patrol<br />
By: John Knickman<br />
The start of the new year is going to find<br />
the Arab Patrol very busy and involved.<br />
That’s good, because that’s the way we like<br />
it. Our <strong>February</strong> meeting schedule has been<br />
altered by President Phil Hardiman to help<br />
prepare us for upcoming events. In <strong>February</strong><br />
we will meet on the 6th and 20th. We need<br />
all members to be present on these dates,<br />
so circle them on your calendar. Our usual<br />
second Monday of the month meeting on<br />
the 13th of <strong>February</strong> will be replaced by our<br />
Valentine dinner party. This gives us a chance<br />
to show our Ladies how very special they are.<br />
We will meet at Anthonys at 6:00 pm and<br />
have dinner at 7:00 pm. Check your e-mail<br />
for meal choices etc. With the Circus coming<br />
to town, we all know what that means. Black<br />
out the dates of <strong>February</strong> <strong>23</strong>-<strong>26</strong> on your<br />
calendar.<br />
Don’t expect any let up in the month<br />
of March. The patrol will be cooking for<br />
hamburger night on the 7th. And, remember<br />
that fantastic meal we had last year with the<br />
Omaha Barbecue where there was so much<br />
food that it should have been illegal? We<br />
will be going back there for another feast<br />
on March 10th. Meet at the Fireman’s Hall<br />
around 6:30 pm.<br />
Finally, communication among all<br />
members is going to be extremely vital in the<br />
success of all the projects on tap for this year.<br />
If you are not receiving the e-mails sent by<br />
Charlie Binge, please let him know so that it<br />
can be corrected.<br />
Any <strong>Shrine</strong>r that is interested in becoming<br />
a member of the Arab Patrol can contact<br />
president Phil Hardiman or drop in on any of<br />
our meetings. We promise you an active and<br />
fun experience.<br />
Another year is upon us, and we<br />
look forward to a great 2012.<br />
2011 was a very successful year for Boone<br />
and Crockett. A lot of fun and some very<br />
successful fund-raisers. Thanks again to our<br />
2011 President Dan Henn for stepping up and<br />
taking a 2nd term of President for the club. He<br />
is always there for the club whether it’s cooking<br />
for our monthly meetings or keeping the club<br />
moving forward for the benefit of <strong>Tangier</strong> and<br />
our Hospitals. Dan and many other members<br />
spent many hours helping prepare and serve<br />
our Wild Game Feed in December which was<br />
another fantastic event.<br />
Thanks to Ruth Henn and all the other Ladies<br />
for their assistance all year long. We need and<br />
appreciate our Ladies support. We owe another<br />
big thanks to Mick Dudzinski for again “Ram-<br />
Rodding” the Whitetails Dinner in <strong>February</strong><br />
last year and to Past President Jim Jacobson<br />
for organizing another successful <strong>Tangier</strong> Fish<br />
Fry last summer. I’m probably forgetting some<br />
folks to thank but we do have a great group of<br />
guys who are there to support our cause and I<br />
look forward to working with them this year.<br />
The 2012 officers are President Jim<br />
Huebner, Vice President Mark Westadt,<br />
Secretary Jeremy Thomason, and Treasurer<br />
Pete Donohoo.<br />
In future articles we will provide dates of<br />
our fundraising events and any social outings<br />
we have planned for the year.<br />
We look forward to signing up new members.<br />
My plans are to have even more fishing trips<br />
and social outings this year and have fun while<br />
we’re working hard. We meet in the lower<br />
level the 1st Thursday of each month, hope to<br />
see you all soon.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong><br />

Hello again to all the klowns and their<br />
wonderful Ladies.<br />
I would like to start out by congratulating<br />
the Divan and wishing them a positive year.<br />
We have a few of our klowns that have stepped<br />
up a level first Jim “Hewy” Hirl was elected<br />
to a Trustee position, Jim “Hambone” Sklenar<br />
was appointed as Marshal, Bryan “Squiggles”<br />
Deming and Ed “Gudder” Mummey were<br />
both selected to be Chief Aides. Cngrats and<br />
good luck gentlemen.<br />
Squiggles, Bitz, and I went to the unit<br />
officers installation on the 7th of January.<br />
We had a nice breakfast and the ceremony<br />
followed, so we are now official.<br />
The Super Bowl Party is on the 5th of<br />
<strong>February</strong>. We still have tickets, so let’s get out<br />
and sell, sell, sell. We need help in all areas,<br />
so contact your unit officers to find out where<br />
you can help.<br />
We have our first Hamburger Night coming<br />
on the 8th of <strong>February</strong>, so we need all klowns<br />
on deck. Following we will have a short<br />
klown college about rules and regs do’s and<br />
don’t’s at Circus, then we will practice our<br />
skit for Circus.<br />
Valentinos is still an on-going paying gig.<br />
All money earned is going to firetruck repair<br />
and upkeep, so we need more klowns to step<br />
up to bat, so we can keep this gig going. It is<br />
an easy gig. To help, call or E-mail Bitz.<br />
Dues notices went out a little later this year,<br />
so check to see if you have paid your dues. If<br />
not, please remit as soon as possible.<br />
If you are not receiving E-mails from your<br />
officers: 1) check your spam filter; 2) update<br />
your E-mail address with us.<br />
Last but not least I would like to thank<br />
Boy Scout Troop #331 for their help with the<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> Kids<br />
Christmas Party. The boys ran games for<br />
us, and they were very professional and a lot<br />
of help. The unit will donate $50.00 to their<br />
troop funds.<br />
Again I have rambled on, so I will close.<br />
“Thank You For All You Do, Now Lets Get<br />
Out And Make Some Kids Smile!”<br />

Director’s Staff<br />
By: Joe Stom<br />
Well, the year is well underway and the<br />
Directors Staff is gearing up for another great<br />
year.<br />
It is hard to imagine but Circus is already<br />
upon us. We will again be running the<br />
inflatables room as well as selling novelties<br />
just down the hall on the second floor. If<br />
you can free up some time, come on out to<br />
help. We could use help setting the room up<br />
Wednesday night. The remaining days we<br />
need people to man the room and novelty<br />
stand. Please come out to help. It is a little<br />
work and a whole lot of fun.<br />
Also just around the corner is our annual<br />
Mardi Gras extravaganza. Mardi Gras takes<br />
place on March 3rd this year. If you have<br />
never been to a Mardi Gras, this is the one to<br />
come to as it is our first ever bead bonanza. If<br />
you would like a ticket or table, look up any<br />
member of the Directors staff.<br />
Our annual SDA convention is also rapidly<br />
approaching. The dates are March 28th<br />
through March 31st in San Antonio. Last<br />
year at this time, the Directors Staff was busy<br />
preparing to host this convention. It sure will<br />
be nice to just relax and enjoy it this time. If<br />
you can make the trip, you should. It is a great<br />
way to meet <strong>Shrine</strong>rs from across the country.<br />
It is always a great time.<br />
You don’t have to look to far ahead on<br />
the calendar to find ceremonial and parade<br />
season. I am really looking forward to the<br />
year ahead with the Directors Staff. It is<br />
already shaping up to be a great one.<br />

Chanters<br />
By: Bernie Hauber, Captain<br />
Here we are in the second<br />
month of a new year.zively. The Chanters<br />
performed at the installation of the <strong>Tangier</strong><br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> Divan on January 6, 2012. We hope<br />
we made a good impression on all the Nobles<br />
and Ladies present at this event.<br />
In a continuation of the tradition started<br />
last year, I would like to introduce you to our<br />
Lieutenant, Noble Joe Riddle. He worked for<br />
the Rock Island, then the Chicago & North<br />
Western and then the Union Pacific (UP)<br />
Railroads starting in 1973. He retired in<br />
2006 from the UP as a crew dispatcher. Joe<br />
was a member of the Illinois Air National<br />
Guard for over <strong>26</strong> years as a member of the<br />
566 Air Force Band. He has been a Master<br />
Mason for over 33 years. Joe was raised in<br />
Boulevard Lodge No. 882 AF&AM (now<br />
West Englewood - Home Lodge No 1074<br />
AF&AM in Oaklawn, IL) and was Master<br />
in 1984 and 1987. He is a dual member of<br />
Coral Lodge No. 430 AF&AM in Carson,<br />

Any man with a joy for singing and<br />
interested in joining us should contact any<br />
Chanter or just stop by on the 2nd, 4th, and<br />
5th Mondays around 7:30 pm at the <strong>Shrine</strong><br />
Center. (This is a revised meeting schedule!)<br />
That’s my update for <strong>February</strong>. Of course,<br />
we all know that <strong>February</strong> <strong>23</strong> through <strong>26</strong>,<br />
2012 is the <strong>Shrine</strong> Circus and the Chanters<br />
will provide direction on the ramps and help<br />
with the National Anthem as usual. See you<br />
there!<br />

Hospital Float<br />
By: Mike Donham<br />
As this article is written,<br />
January has been mild and<br />
snowless. I hope this continues<br />
into <strong>February</strong>. <strong>February</strong> is Circus month and the<br />
Hospital Float Unit has in the past been involved<br />
with ticket taking. Again this year Float members<br />
will be asked to sign up for that job. The dates for<br />
the Circus are <strong>February</strong> <strong>23</strong>rd – <strong>26</strong>th.<br />
With sadness, we report the passing of Lady<br />
Claudette Harmon in January. Her husband,<br />
Noble Bill Harmon, a member of the Hospital<br />
Float Unit, preceded her in death in 2006. Our<br />
sincere condolences are sent to Claudette’s<br />
family.<br />
Under sickness, Noble Dean Anderson had a<br />
knee replacement and Lady Nadine Ellis spent<br />
two days in the hospital. Lady Carol Plummer has<br />
fallen again recently and is recovering slowly. We<br />
extend our best to all for a speedy recovery.<br />
Happy Birthday wishes for <strong>February</strong> to Nobles<br />
Ed Nolte, Stan Hale and Mike Donham and to<br />
Ladies Maggie Ferryman, Martha Sherman and<br />
Wilma Henderson.<br />
Noble Ken and Lady Cindy Nisley and Noble<br />
Tim and Lady Laura Mendoza will celebrate<br />
<strong>February</strong> anniversaries. Congratulations!<br />
Remember Nobles: “Better keep yourself clean<br />
and bright; you are the window through which<br />
you must see the world.” – George Bernard Shaw<br />
MO-RI<br />
By: Noble Don:<br />
The <strong>Tangier</strong> election for 2012 is now history.<br />
The new Divan and MO-RI officers have been<br />
installed and ready to take their place leading<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong> into the future. MO-RI wishes to<br />
congratulate our new Potentate, Illustrious Sir<br />
Greg Hadcock and Lady Donna as well as the<br />
remainder of the elevated and elected Divan.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong>’s new Oriental Guide Charlie Marchand<br />
and Lady Connie have joined MO-RI and<br />
already contributed by attending our December<br />
2011 dinner meeting. MO-RI also wishes to<br />
acknowledge Past Potentate Bob Klesath and<br />
Lady Suz along with his Divan for all of the<br />
assistance and guidance they shared with us<br />
during another strong year for our <strong>Shrine</strong> Club.<br />
On the subject of Circus ads, preliminary<br />
results indicate MO-RI will meet and surpass<br />
last year’s target. We need to continue to<br />
appreciate our longtime sponsors as they<br />
continue to support our cause. Remaining<br />
positive, our selling staff has found several<br />
new sponsors to add to our success in selling<br />
ads for 2012. Speaking of the Circus, mark your<br />
calendars for <strong>February</strong> <strong>23</strong> – <strong>26</strong>. Don’t miss out<br />
on what could be the last time <strong>Tangier</strong> will be at<br />
the Civic. No matter where the <strong>Tangier</strong> Circus<br />
performs there will always be the smiles on the<br />
faces in the audience.<br />
Our <strong>February</strong> 16 dinner meeting will be held<br />
in Omaha’s Rockbrook Village at the Pasta<br />
Amore Café, 108th and Center. Please bring<br />
your Lady and join us for the evening. Bring<br />
along a potential new Mason.<br />

Keystone Kops<br />
By: Captain Corey M. Hall<br />
Brothers and sisters, Kops and Kuties,<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong>rs and Ladies all: I’m glad to say that<br />
the New Year is here. It’s now <strong>February</strong> and<br />
Circus time again. This is my favorite time to<br />
be a <strong>Shrine</strong>r. I love the Circus. Seeing the smiles<br />
on the faces of everyone there just drives home<br />
the good feeling that I get, knowing that we<br />
are working hard for the patients being treated<br />
at our <strong>Shrine</strong> Hospitals and having the greatest<br />
time doing it. I hope to see all available Kops<br />
and Kuties there in full goofy force to make this<br />
year’s Circus the best one ever. Skit ideas are<br />
already being kicked around (like Kop helmets<br />
at Circus) and I’m sure there will be some<br />
“boom booms” in there somewhere. So get out<br />
those uniforms, wash the crusty pie from CSSA<br />
off of them, sew the “RIGHT” shiny buttons on<br />
them and FALL IN!<br />
If you didn’t get a chance to go to the greatest<br />
New Year’s party in Omaha then you missed<br />
out. <strong>Tangier</strong> was once again the place to be on<br />
New Year’s Eve. Kops and Kuties turned out<br />
in force, but as we all know what happens in<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong> stays in <strong>Tangier</strong> so that’s another story.<br />
I myself turned another year older in January,<br />
and due to a clerical error no one knew, but<br />
that’s OK by me. Now on that note I would like<br />
to wish a very Happy Birthday to the wife of<br />
our newest Past Chief Tracey Goodman, and<br />
our newest Kop Steve Elliot. Glad to have<br />
you Brother! I would also like to say Happy<br />
Anniversary to Past Chief Bob “Red Dog”<br />
Regnas and his Kutie Penny and Past Chief Jeff<br />
Burnham and his Kutie Kim.<br />

<strong>Tangier</strong> “hot sands”<br />
Legion of Honor<br />
By: Mark Dreier, LOH Cmdr.<br />
It’s the middle of winter and if<br />
you’re like me, Spring can’t get<br />
here soon enough. January was very active<br />
with the Divan installation followed the next<br />
day by Unit and Club Officer’s installation.<br />
Bravo-Zulu to the Color Guard for posting<br />
the Colors at the installation as well as on<br />
the <strong>Temple</strong> meeting night where we had<br />
the honor of the Imperial Potentate present.<br />
Brothers, I can’t say it enough, you guys<br />
are the best! The following Wednesday was<br />
Hamburger Night and again Bravo-Zulu to<br />
all the Brothers and their Ladies for the hard<br />
work in the galley getting the chow out.<br />
Looking at my calendar, this month looks<br />
like fair winds and calm seas until the <strong>23</strong>rd.<br />
That’s right, it’s Circus time! All hands<br />
are needed at all the shows so please plan<br />
to attend. We always have a good time at<br />
Circus. And I have tickets if you need them.<br />
Illustrious Sir Hadcock has put out a<br />
long range event schedule for 2012, most<br />
noteworthy are the Potentate’s Ball on March<br />
31st, and the Fall Ceremonial on November<br />
10th. The rest of the schedule I will put out<br />
at our next LOH meeting on <strong>February</strong> 7th.<br />
<strong>February</strong> 18th is our Fez Ball I would like<br />
to see all of you there to enjoy a good meal<br />
and good music.<br />
March 21st is the International LOH<br />
convention in Alexandria, VA. Lt. Cmdr.<br />
Tom Upton and I, along with our Ladies<br />
,will be attending and if you also desire to<br />
attend, go to International LOH’s web site<br />
for all the scuttlebutt.<br />
2nd Lt. Cmdr. Ron Baliey married his<br />
lovely Lady Sue on New Year’s eve at the<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> so the next time you see them give<br />
them your well wishes.<br />

Co-Captain<br />
Here it is. 2012! It should prove to be an<br />
exciting year. Motor A is ready for “Fun with<br />
A Purpose”. It is with great honor that we<br />
welcome our new Potentate Sir Greg Hadcock<br />
and his Lady Donna. Installation was a fun<br />
evening and the food was excellent. Everyone<br />
attending had an excellent time.<br />
I apologize to my fellow members for<br />
missing the January issue, not starting out the<br />
new year with BANG.<br />
The Motor A Christmas party at Ron and<br />
Tami Stites, was wonderful. It was the last one<br />
with our Divan member Chuck and his Lady<br />
Anita. We will miss them. On the other hand<br />
we are looking forward to who will be our<br />
Divan member for 2012.<br />
We met at Millard Road house for our<br />
January meeting. We meet the first Monday of<br />
the month, winter months and late fall usually<br />
at the Road House. In the summer we usually<br />
rotate around to some of the members who host<br />
the meetings. Captain Larry Hulsebus always<br />
has the details. His contact number is listed in<br />
the Hot Sands. Our Unit is growing and we<br />
love it. We major in “FUN”, so Sir Potentate’s<br />
new message is perfect for us. Gene Bowman<br />
and Roger McCauley are on the list of <strong>Shrine</strong>rs<br />
who transport children to our hospitals. We<br />
commit ourselves to the Circus every year; a<br />
lot of us sell tokens and in between whatever<br />
else needs to be done, helping usher some of<br />
the performances and as always helping with<br />
the special needs performance.<br />
Our passion is the Parades, our ‘57 Chevys<br />
keep us all busy. Shining, waxing, remembering<br />
to bring gas, our keys, our Fezzes and of course<br />
the friendly competition as to who can go the<br />
fastest. In a nut shell we are looking forward to<br />
another year.<br />

Women’s<br />
Auxiliary<br />
By: Faye Daniels<br />
We want to thank all of you who have<br />
collected and donated the can tabs to us; I<br />
think we have had a record year! Special<br />
thanks to: Chuck Kubick, Joe Carter, Tom<br />
Brummett, John and Kathleen Dickey,<br />
Dale Hiers, Renee Herschlag, Randy<br />
Christiansen, Byron Crowell, Blaha Auto<br />
Service & Terry’s Auto in Bellevue, Rich<br />
and Sue Halgren, Carrie Moody. If I missed<br />
someone, I apologize. We really appreciate<br />
the support we are receiving for this project<br />
for <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Hospital for Children - Twin<br />
Cities.<br />
It is time now to renew your membership<br />
with the Auxiliary; our dues are still only $5.<br />
If you cannot attend one of our meetings,<br />
please mail your membership dues to the<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong> <strong>Shrine</strong> Center to the attention of<br />
Women’s Auxiliary. Your dues also help<br />
support projects for the Hospital.<br />
I am including a part of a letter sent to the<br />
Twin Cities Hospital from the mother of one<br />
of our patients, Connor, from Sioux Falls,<br />
SD; I think you will be as touched by it as<br />
I was.<br />
Dear Members of the Women’s General<br />
Auxiliary, <strong>Shrine</strong>r’s Hospitals for Children<br />
Twin Cities, El Riad <strong>Shrine</strong>rs, I have been<br />
reflecting on how to even begin to thank<br />
you for helping our family. We are so deeply<br />
grateful for your generosity! You’ve given<br />
our little boy something invaluable--a gift<br />
of mobility--which will provide him new<br />
opportunities to shine. I read a story some<br />
time ago, and there is a part that has stuck<br />
with me: Santa placed a candle on the<br />
mantle and lit it. The soft glow from its one<br />
tiny flame brightened the room. Santa said,<br />
“The glow of the candle represents how<br />
people can show their thanks for the gift<br />
of that Christmas Eve long ago. Teach the<br />
children to go about doing good, and to let<br />
their light shine so that all may see it.” Our<br />
precious Connor is our bright star! He’s got<br />
a sparkling personality and his smile lights<br />
up the room. His giggles make everyone<br />
around him giggle too! Conner’s been an<br />
example of character to us and his pure<br />
determination has taught us to be thankful<br />
for so many things; quite honestly, things we<br />
probably took for granted all too often before<br />
he came. As I look around and see colored<br />
lights on trees, twinkling lights on houses,<br />
bright stars in the sky, I think of children--<br />
how you’ve helped my child and the many<br />
other children you’ve helped. My eyes have<br />
grown teary now, and I am speechless. And,<br />
I am grateful.<br />
From the wholeness of our hearts, thank<br />
you! Rebecca N. and family.<br />
We wish everyone the best of years in<br />
2012. - Thank You.<br />

Past Masters<br />
By: Mel Morton<br />
The Past Masters Club met at the <strong>Tangier</strong><br />
Shine December 10th with a catered dinner.<br />
Elections were held for officers for 2012. Elected<br />
were Mel Morton President, Jeffrey Coleman<br />
Vice President, Carl Highman Secretary and<br />
Paul Schroeder Treasurer. I would like to thank<br />
Don Miller for his leadership last year and look<br />
forward for his advice this coming year. We<br />
also would like to thank Ric Thompson for his<br />
past years as Secretary and all he has done to<br />
get the club running.<br />
The Past Masters Club meets quarterly. Our<br />
next meeting will be March 2nd at the <strong>Shrine</strong><br />
with a social hour at 6:00 pm and dinner at 7:00<br />
pm. Our program will be from the Omaha Police<br />
Department arranged by Brother Jim Sklenar. I<br />
would like to express my appreciation to Jim<br />
for his help on the program.<br />
It was decided to meet at the <strong>Shrine</strong> with<br />
a catered dinner rather than going to various<br />
restaurants. Last year it was decided that the<br />
club wanted to be a social club as many of us<br />
are in other clubs and units that do work around<br />
the <strong>Shrine</strong>. This gives us a chance to sit back,<br />
relax and enjoy an evening with other Shiners<br />
and their Ladies.<br />
If you are a Past Master, we would love to<br />
have you as a member of the Past Masters<br />
Club. We have a $<strong>25</strong>.00 initiation fee and dues<br />
of $5.00 per year. Join us at the next meeting to<br />
relax and enjoy each other’s company.<br />
Golden Girls<br />
By: Maxine Lorraine Powers<br />
A new month - <strong>February</strong>. Christmas cards<br />
have been replaced by Valentine’s Day greeting<br />
cards, so lots of red still around in addition to<br />
pink. And candy? Yes, beckoning chocolate for<br />
your sweetheart is in abundance. Best you not<br />
forget Valentine’s Day, which is being observed<br />
on the 14th.<br />
This month is often referred to as lover’s<br />
month and definitely known as Circus month<br />
around <strong>Tangier</strong> <strong>Shrine</strong> Center. <strong>Shrine</strong>rs are<br />
busy - busy - busy in an all-out effort to ensure<br />
the annual <strong>Shrine</strong> Circus is a great success.<br />
President’s Day will be observed on the 20th,<br />
the day designated to honor past presidents of<br />
the United States. It’s also a welcome holiday<br />
from work for many.<br />
Golden Girls will meet on Valentine’s Day,<br />
the 14th. Same time and place - twelve noon<br />
in the lower level (Oasis room) of the <strong>Shrine</strong><br />
Center. Come and enjoy a tasty lunch, visit with<br />
your friends, and view some very interesting<br />
dolls from around the world.<br />
Edna Hesson, Martha Sherman, and Florence<br />
Young are celebrating their birthday this month.<br />
On the 15th, Florence will reach the grand old<br />
age of 105. Truly amazing!<br />
Wishing all readers a happy Valentine’s Day.<br />
Again, be sure to remember your loved ones on<br />
this occasion. It’s love that makes the world<br />
go around. So many say! This writer thinks it’s<br />
money, rather than love. - Until next month.<br />

Mobile Nobles<br />
By: Dick Cope<br />
Well the holidays are now over and it’s<br />
time to set back and relax, right? Wrong!<br />
Here comes the Circus. The dates for the<br />
Circus are <strong>February</strong> <strong>23</strong>rd through the <strong>26</strong>th.<br />
But before then, we have to finish remodeling<br />
the coach and get the train spick and span.<br />
I guess there is no rest for the wicked or so<br />
I have heard. Mobile Nobles, we will need<br />
help watching over the train while it is at the<br />
Circus. Please let me know when you can<br />

permitting) <strong>February</strong> 10th and 11th and the<br />
17th and 18th to promote the Circus. We will<br />
be going to the Hy-Vee Stores again this year.<br />

The main news for the Racers in January<br />
was the holiday dinner. This is written prior<br />
to the dinner, so details will be reported next<br />
month.<br />
Hamburger nights are off to a good start.<br />
The Ladies’ dessert offerings needed two<br />
tables to hold a plentiful variety of tasty<br />
treats. From the Racers standpoint, we favor<br />
patrons favoring desserts that deserve an<br />
ice cream topping. In a take-off from a TV<br />
commercial, instead of us saying, “Eat more<br />
Chikun,” we say top off your desserts with a<br />
generous helping of ice cream.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong>’s Circus is in <strong>February</strong> and the<br />
Racers look forward to helping this event<br />
continue being successful.<br />
<strong>Tangier</strong> Band<br />
By: Jim Radosevich, Captain<br />
The ‘newly retired’ Band<br />
Captain asked me to write<br />
a little about myself in my<br />
first <strong>Tangier</strong> Band column, and to include<br />
religion and drinking. So to be politically<br />
correct, I will state that “I drink religiously.”<br />
This year, the band will seek out more<br />
opportunities to play at seniors, handicapped,<br />
and rehabilitation centers, especially those<br />
where our Brother <strong>Shrine</strong>rs, or Loved-<br />
Ones live. We may be able to provide small<br />
ensembles according to availability.<br />
Last month, we played for the Divan<br />
Installation, as well as for the Stated<br />
Meeting, where we were again recognized<br />
as the best <strong>Shrine</strong> Band in Omaha.<br />
CIRCUS, CIRCUS, CIRCUS - Please<br />
continue to sell/distribute all the Circus<br />
tickets you can. The Band has donated a<br />
bicycle for the <strong>Shrine</strong> Circus. In order to<br />
promote safety, we may mount a warning<br />
device on the bicycle. Does anyone have a<br />
bracket for a French Horn, or a gong? The<br />
Famous <strong>Tangier</strong> <strong>Shrine</strong> Band will play<br />
Friday and Saturday (Feb <strong>24</strong>/<strong>25</strong>) between<br />
Circus performances on those days.<br />
We welcome percussion, woodwind, or<br />
brass players to join our unit. If you were<br />
scorned by the jocks while playing in your<br />
school band, be certain you will share in the<br />
prestige of playing in the Famous <strong>Tangier</strong><br />
<strong>Shrine</strong> Band. For <strong>Tangier</strong> Band membership<br />
please contact any band member, or Lauren<br />
Faist 402.392.7827 for more information.<br />
In closing, a word to the wise band<br />
members during the upcoming potentially<br />
icy months: “If you don’t C#, you’ll Bb!”<br />

FEBRUary 2012<br />
Show pride in your legacy.<br />
For many men, being a <strong>Shrine</strong>r is a family tradition. From<br />
one generation to the next, <strong>Shrine</strong>rs have enjoyed a<br />
unique brotherhood and shared in an important mission.<br />
The <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Legacy Program is a way to show your pride<br />
in being a <strong>Shrine</strong>r and to celebrate your part in the special<br />
brotherhood that comes from membership.<br />
The <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Legacy Program is open to any male family<br />
member* related to a <strong>Shrine</strong>r, including:<br />
• Fathers • Grandfathers • Brothers • Uncles<br />
• Sons • Grandsons • Nephews • In-laws<br />
Be a part of special Legacy events.<br />
<strong>Temple</strong>s will be encouraged to host Legacy nights to<br />
honor members of the program. Legacy members in all<br />
generations will be invited to participate in a variety of<br />
fun events and activities with their family members and<br />
fellow nobles.<br />
Wear your Legacy pin with pride.<br />
To show our gratitude for you and your<br />
family continuing the <strong>Shrine</strong>rs legacy,<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong>rs International has designed<br />
an elegant gold pin that showcases<br />
your pride in your <strong>Shrine</strong>rs heritage.<br />
The <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Legacy pin will become<br />
available in two phases.<br />
Membership starts here.<br />
Phase 1 – New Members<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong>rs International will provide new members of the<br />
fraternity with complimentary Legacy Program pins if<br />
they meet the following criteria:<br />
• The member must have joined after October 17, 2011.<br />
• He must also be a part of a <strong>Shrine</strong>rs legacy, meaning that<br />
one or more of his relatives (either living or deceased)<br />
is/was a <strong>Shrine</strong>r.<br />
New members will also need to fill out a Legacy<br />
Program application at www.shrinersvillage.com. Upon<br />
review and acceptance of the application he will receive<br />
a complimentary pin for himself, and a pin for up to two<br />
additional <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Legacy family members who have<br />
signed his petition.<br />
Phase 2 – Existing Legacies<br />
Beginning January 1, 2012 the Legacy Program Pin will<br />
become available to current <strong>Shrine</strong>rs who are part of a legacy<br />
for a $5 contribution † . While all <strong>Shrine</strong>r family members<br />
may purchase a pin, each member must fill out a separate<br />
application at www.shrinersvillage.com. The application for<br />
current members will be available online January 1, 2012.<br />
<strong>Shrine</strong>rs International appreciates your role in<br />
building and continuing its legacy. For more<br />
information about the <strong>Shrine</strong>rs Legacy Program<br />
please visit www.shrinersvillage.com<br />
* If your family member is a deceased <strong>Shrine</strong>r you will still be eligible to be part of the program.<br />
