More and more of our members are taking advantage of the postage paid memorial envelopes for such tributes. I respectfully ask and urge you to support this portion of our Hospital Benefit Program. David Ashley, High Priest &Prophet 2012 Benefit Chairman “LIVING MEMORIAL” envelopes can be obtained through the Temple Office. The following is a list of DONORS: Betty Baty Mrs. Judy W.

Page 5 Arabia Motor Corps Unit By: Jack Sanchez Those of us who grew up in the South, specialty Texas, know to just be patient and wait a few hours for the weather to change. Texans know that we need to a d a p t quickly to survive in this area of the country; my point being that some people have been looking for canoes or jon boats because of the heavy rains and flooding that came during the last few months. Being good Shriners, we do not let a little rain dampen our spirits. We just pull the hat down a little tighter and lean forward. After Imperial in July, most came home to rest while some continued with their vacations, and others just let the world go by. One of our Shrine Clubs, about 60 strong, gathered toys, blankets, pillows, hats and headed to the Burns Center in Galveston to offer those Children a Christmas in July. Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus even showed up for these Children. Motor Corps hosted a FUN RUN on August 4th, at five locations (Woodlands Harley, Texan Harley, Kingwood Harley, Pasadena Honda & San Jacinto Harley). The winners of the FUN RUN: 1st Place - Janet Hudkins, 2nd Place - Todd Blankenburg, 3rd Place - Evelyn Gregory, 4th Place - Flynt Blackwell. Worst hand - Linda Nolan, who wins a gift certificate from Renegade. Consolation prizes, which were donated by San Jacinto Harley-Davidson went to Steve Gregory & Sherman Markowitz. Schulenburg TX had their Official Visit and Parade on Sunday the 5th of August. We also held an obstacle course Aug 9-12 in San Antonio. Our Annual Commander’s Party on August 25th was well attended and enjoyed by all. Anyone interested in becoming a member, helping, participating or donating, please contact our Commander, David Janda at baberuth60714@yahoo.com or Lt Cmdr. Albert Janda at afvkj@att.net You do not need to own a Motorcycle or Red Racer to be a member of the Motor Corps. Our only requirement is that “YOU WANT TO HAVE FUN”. If this fits you, this is your unit. We take pride in putting the Fez in the public eye at many functions around the City and State. Not everyone knows that everything we do is for the Children at our hospitals. Thank You I would like to thank everyone in the “Shrine Family” who supported Kathy Segerlind, Swede’s daughter and me at the time of Swede’s death. The cards, the calls and the large attendance at the visitation and funeral service were heartwarming. Thank you to the Provost Guard for providing the Honor Guard the evening of the visitation. Sincerely, Betty Davenport Southeast Shrine Club by Fred Lemieux You missed it!!! A great time was had by all at our sixth annual pilgrimage to Alvin. Sixteen members and two guests attended the Alvin Opry after a great buffet dinner at Parks restaurant. The Alvin Opry is only performing on Friday nights. They had their usual line-up of local talent, plus some special guests performing that Nashville sound. By far, it was the best show in a long time, and all for only $10.00 per person. This event is still a fun time and a wonderful time for our members to socialize during our summer break. A tip of the FEZ to the Alvin Opry and Parks Restaurant! Southeast Shrine Club meets the first Thursday of the month at Golf Crest Country Club in Pearland at 7:00 P.M. Our next meeting is September 6 th , and it will also be the Official Visit. Come out and enjoy the evening with us. Please RSVP to President Mike Sampson at 281-485-5119 if you would like to join us.
