Sheiks<br />
Greetings<br />
from the Sheiks<br />
2013 is off to<br />
a great start with<br />
the completion<br />
of the 90th<br />
addition of the<br />
Shrine Circus.<br />
is event like<br />
Wally Larsen<br />
none other<br />
affords a great<br />
chance to renew and foster new friendships<br />
as we travel the trail of this brotherhood.<br />
Each event of the year gives our<br />
members a chance to join together as a<br />
Sheik while serving in some way where<br />
needed. No event pulls the Sheiks<br />
together more than the Osman Circus, as<br />
was witnessed again before, during and<br />
after our 90th Osman Shrine Circus.<br />
<strong>•</strong> Monday, setup day, found the Sheiks<br />
ready to get things started by assembling<br />
both Sheik booths while sharing stories<br />
of circuses past.<br />
<strong>•</strong> Wednesday, again, found a willing<br />
group of Sheiks ready to stock and<br />
prepare our booths with circus treasures<br />
that we knew would bring smiles to the<br />
faces of so many kids during circus<br />
week.<br />
<strong>•</strong> ursday thru Sunday, circus days,<br />
brought the Sheiks together as always,<br />
St. Paul Zagalas<br />
in strong numbers, with the<br />
help of several of our Ladies<br />
and friends. Circus week<br />
brings our unit together more<br />
than any other event of the<br />
year. Sheiks have always<br />
answered the call when it<br />
comes to our circus.<br />
<strong>•</strong> Sunday night, teardown<br />
night, found no shortage of<br />
willing Sheiks to finish the<br />
task of bringing the 90th<br />
Osman Circus to its close.<br />
Sheiks, like all the other<br />
Shriners, in our many clubs and<br />
units, work before, during and<br />
after our circus because it is who<br />
they are. We know the<br />
importance of our circus and<br />
what it brings to our great<br />
brotherhood.<br />
Special thanks! e Osman<br />
Sheiks have, as many say,<br />
“manned” their booths for many<br />
years. While it is true that we<br />
have answered the call of our<br />
Temple to work the circus we know that<br />
without the help of our families and friends<br />
our task would be overwhelming. e<br />
Sheiks have had several SUPER GALS<br />
work the circus for Osman as far back as I<br />
can remember. Some are veterans and<br />
Catherine Perron, Steve Hoyer and Sandy Perron. A<br />
big THANK YOU to the super gals who work with the<br />
Sheiks circus after circus.<br />
Pam and Jim Thoreson<br />
others new to circus week. We, the Sheiks<br />
of Osman, thank the following for their<br />
commitment to the Sheiks and Osman:<br />
Dee Hoyer, Judy Carr, Clare Grittner,<br />
Catherine Perron, Sandy Perron, Pam<br />
oreson, and Lindsey Guetter.<br />
