I love a parade!!! As many of you know I have taught
marching band professionally for 25 years. My
career has afforded me the opportunity to see some
pretty incredible parts of our country, but even more
important I have met some inspirational people.
I consider it a blessing to have had competitive
success coupled with the chance to teach young
adults how to work hard and set goals. Now I have
a goal for Mizpah. This July the largest parade in all
of Shrinedom comes to Indianapolis as part of the
Shrine International Imperial Session. The Mizpah
nobles will descend on Indy to show the world why
we are considered one of the best. I want the world to
know we came in force.
From June 30th through July 4th Shriners from all
over the world will come together to vote on new
legislation and enjoy the social benefits of being a
Shriner. If you have never had the opportunity to
enjoy the largest gathering of likeminded men, now
is your chance. The entire experience is inspirational
as the true democratic process unfolds in front of
us. Even in an organization as large as Shriners
International majority vote wins. No loop holes. No
exceptions. If you are looking for proof of all the
good works we do, this is the place to witness it.
On the evening of Monday July 1st hundreds of
parading Shrine units from around the world will
show off along the streets of Indianapolis. Units will
come from as far away as the Philippines, Panama,
and Germany to take part. Let’s make Mizpah to
the biggest and best presentation on that epic day.
We pride ourselves in the diversity of our noble’s
interests and talents. Our many unique parading units
are proof of this. The Imperial Parade is our chance
to work together to make our mark on a national
level. I am asking the leaders of all clubs and units to
start planning now for that single day in July. Let’s
rally our troops and use this experience to solidify the
bonds that make us Mizpah Shriners. In the coming
months the Allah Bi will have continuing information
on how every one of us can be involved. Start
planning now to be a part of history.
We are moving. On April 1st, 2013, construction will
begin on the interior of our new home. This has been
a four year process that has finally come to fruition.
This spring I will be traveling extensively throughout
the entire Mizpah realm to answer your questions and
bring you up to date on the progress. It is an exciting
time to be a Mizpah Shriner and witness the securing
of our future. As times change so do our needs. By
looking forward we guarantee future Shriners stable
financial footing in a place they will be proud to call
home. The actions we take now will allow us to take
care of our kids for generations to come. When we
cut the ribbon in December we will know the hard
work we have accomplished in the present will keep
our legacy alive in the future.
