UPCOMING BOARD MEETING – THURSDAY, JANUARY 26th

The first Board of Governors meeting for 2012 will be at JJ’s Restaurant in O’Fallon on January 26th. As always plan to arrive around 6:30. We’ll order off the menu and have separate checks. At 7:30 the guys will have their meeting and the Ladies will play Bunko. The food is always good and reasonably priced! Our Board Meetings are where you’ll find out what’s going on in the Shrine Club and with the Temple. Remember – we always include our Ladies.

INSTALLATION OF OFFICERS – THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2nd, 2012

The Installation of Officers will be held on our regular Dinner Meeting night - Thursday, February 2nd. Instead of going to a restaurant we have decided to have our Installation at Moolah Temple in the Gateway 500 Room. I had sent out an e-mail to save the date for Friday, Feb 3rd but Potentate Andy asked us to keep our installation on Thursday and he is waiving the temple fee so we can keep the Thursday date. So we went from Thursday – to Friday – and back to Thursday. Sorry for the confusion. The details are in the flyer included in this newsletter.
