Greeting Nobles, Our Ceremonial “On The Road” at Science Lodge #50 in San-

dusky, Ohio, on May 11, was a great success. We brought eight newNobles into the Shrine, with an afterglow following at SanduskyElks, which was well attended. I would like to thank Nobles JoeRadocy and Steve Hessler for all their help in arranging and makingthis event possible. To our Director Stan Hoffman, the DramaticCast, members of the Divan and Past Potentates thank you for yoursupport and continue love for our fraternity. Now with all that beingsaid Nobles, if you remember I mentioned in the May Hadji that ifeach club or unit could set a goal to recruit two or three new Nobleswe could have 84 new Nobles to fill the fort at Camp Masonry. Well,now, with the eight we just bought in, we only need “76” to reachour goal for Camp Masonry on August 9, located at Camp Miakonda,5600 W. Sylvania Avenue, Toledo. So Nobles see, with your help,anything is possible. The sky has no limit!

Thursday, June 13, will be the stated meeting, summer picnic andPast Potentate Night. I am honored to inform you that we will haveImperial Sir Bernard Lemieux, Past Potentate (1995) of Zenobia, inattendance. Be sure to give him a great Zenobia welcome.

Just a reminder Nobles, on Friday, June 14, at 6 p.m., we will behaving a Friendship Night at Zenobia Shrine Center. I highly encour-age all of you to invite anyone who you think would benefit fromour great fraternity, Masons or non-Masons. There will be a greatpresentation on Freemasonry and history on the Shrine by NobleTroy Hawkins. Dinner will be provided at no cost to the newprospective member or sponsor. So, please plan to attend this greatevent.

I would like to thank Illustrious Sir Keith Tuttle, the Onion Com-mittee, clubs and units for all their hard work and dedication in mak-ing this year’s onion campaign a great success. Without your helpthis would not have been possible.

Finally, I would encourage you to support the various eventsscheduled throughout the summer. They are all listed in the Hadjifor you reference.

Remember, “in unity there is strength – Together We Can.”Fraternally,

Dan E. Slavin, Potentate Zenobia Shrine

The fourth Wednesday of themonth we have a Sportsmen’sExtravaganza meeting and draw“early bird” winners. Get yourtickets sold and turned in so you

Grace and Peace to you andyours in the name of the GreatCreator.

As I write this tome in earlyMay, the day is cold and rainy. Itgot me thinking that life is some-what like that. Days are drearyand often the chill of tasks un-done cloud our minds. But, thenthe sun of the promise of tomor-

row dispels the gloom and welook toward the brightness of anew day. We think of our Ma-sonic vows for “More Light” andknow there is much that needs tobe done.

Brothers, look around you.Look to those places where thelight of Shrine/Masonry can bethe light in the life of a friend. Ifwe truly believe the vows wehave made to be better men, wemust share the message and tellthe world of the Shrine’s goodeffect.

While membership may beof significant importance, ourcall to serve is even greater. Ourcommunities need men good andtrue. Our boys and girls need ahealing and helping hand. Weeach need this fraternity thatmakes good men better.

The cold and rain will passaway, but with the help of theGreat Creator the sun will shineand the clouds will lift and lifewill find new blessings.

See you in September.Peace,

Hugh W. Bowland, D.Min.Chaplain, Zenobia Shrine

museum at 4:00 o’clock. It is alot of walking, but six of the No-bles went. It was very impressivewith the World War II aircraft,boats, Jeeps, trucks, motorcycles(American, as well as German,even a few Japanese items) inaddition to all of the displays. Ican not skip over the restorationof the Tin Goose that is, and hasbeen, going on for a number ofyears. That is worth the tour allby itself.
