FEETPRINTS DEADLINEthe 10th of the previous month.

Please send all informationto Za-Ga-Zig Shrine Temple

The Circus has come and gone and was a suc-cess. We don’t have the numbers yet but listeningto everyone’s comments I would deem it a success.A big thank you goes out to all the Nobles and La-dies that helped make this Circus the success thatit was. Hopefully, in years to come attendance willcontinue to grow. This year at the appreciation din-ner we will try something new. If you qualified forthe appreciation dinner you can bring a guest for$10. This is being done in hopes that more Nobleswill attend this dinner if they can bring their sig-nificant other. Thank you to Randy “Wuzzles”Weldon for clowning me up on Sunday. Now I seewhy the clowns have so much fun. At the February Nobility Meeting we had theprivilege to have Sara Van Patten from ShrinersHealthcare for Children (formerly Twin CitiesHospital) travel from the Twin Cities to give us anupdate on our hospital system. If you were unableto attend and want more information, contact JimMay and he will be able to give you literature. Even though the Super Bowl wasn’t the gamethat most people wanted a good time was had atthe party. As usual P.P. Tom Robbins preparedenough snacks to feed an army and no one wentaway hungry. Get your petitions ready for the Spring Ceremo-nial. The Honoree will be P.P. Rick “Puddin”Corbin. Let’s make this one of the largestceremonials we’ve had for a while and show ourhonoree a good time.

Fraternally Yours,Doug Miller, Potentate

St Patrick’s Day Fun Facts St. Patrick’s Day is an Irish national holiday with banks,stores, and businesses closing for the day. The first St. Patrick’s Day celebration in the United Stateswas held in Boston (1737). Shamrocks are the national flower/emblem of Ireland.

The color of St. Patrick’s Day was originally blue.

Beer is one of the most widely consumed beverages on St.Patrick’s Day.

Legend says that each leaf of the clover has a meaning: Hope,Faith, Love and Luck. 1962 marked the first time Chicago dyed their river green forSt Patrick’s Day.

Illustrious Sir has a great year plannedand I am enthusiastic about where he will lead us.
