Abou Ben Adhem Shrine Ceremonial 2008
What a great weekend it was with over 70 new nobles made at the Abou Ben Adhem Shrine Temple in Springfield, MO!!!
Another Hot Sands has come to pass and let me tell you, these new Nobles are incredible men. We are very lucky to have them and look forward to their participation in our clubs and units for 2009. We were lucky to have two candidates join our band to play during Ceremonial and are keeping our fingers crossed they will return to play some more.
Speaking of music, the Shrine Temple Band sounded great once again. We played some new tunes including a tribute to "South Pacific", "Scarborough Fair" and "My Sweet Angel", as well as some older favorites like "More Cowbell".
Whatever you do, do not forget the Temple Band Christmas Party around 6:30pm on Friday, December 12 in the lower level of the Shrine Mosque.
The menu...Ribeye steak, baked potato, green beans, salad and desert. All for the sum of $12.00 per person. The bar will be free as usual (whatever is left over from Ceremonial.) Be sure to let Joe and Sharon know ASAP if you can attend so they can have the right amount of food ready for our group.
We had a strong attendance for this year's ceremonial and our bar was very active this year. Thank you so much for our bar staff and their hard work. It was no small task to serve so many during this weekend's activities.
There will also be a Children's Christmas Party on Saturday, December 13th in the lower level of the Shrine from 1-3pm.
There will be no band practice in early January 2009, as there will be a business meeting at 7pm on Thursday, January 8th. The band will perform in their red jackets with Fezzes for this event in the lower level of the Shrine. The band will play around 6:30pm.
Have a safe and Merry Christmas!
Fraternally yours,
Chris Bell
