The disadvantage of having to do an article a month in<br />
advance is that you have to anticipate how events unfolded.<br />
The advantage is having a world class magazine! With that<br />
being said, when this article comes out, the Murat Shrine<br />
Circus will have been over for about a month. THANK YOU<br />
to all of the Police Club and Drill Team members who came<br />
out and helped make everything run safely. Seeing those<br />
shiny Drill Team motorcycles with the lights on driving<br />
around the coliseum really makes you wish you had one!<br />
Getting those buses parked during the morning performances<br />
was cold work outside, but once you come in and see all<br />
the smiles on the kids’ faces watching the circus, it makes<br />
getting a little cold worthwhile.<br />
The Police Club and Drill Team had a good turnout at<br />
the Potentate’s Ball on March 21; we had more than two<br />
tables in attendance. If you missed it this year, plan on<br />
attending next year—it is well worth the price. If the magazine<br />
reaches you before April 4 (it should), then don’t forget<br />
about the Grand Master’s One-Day Class and the<br />
Ringmaster’s Banquet. I wish I could say that I will see you<br />
there, but my lady has plans for the family ... something<br />
about vacation down in Florida. But I hope to see you at our<br />
next Club meeting on Tuesday, April 7.<br />
