Ill Sir Terry Ronald

Nobles,

​

The 2024 Spring Ceremonial is fast approaching and The Hi Ro Shrine Club along with the assistance of the Aylmer Shrine Club have already put in an enormous amount of time and effort planning the weekend event.  We look forward to returning to a traditional Mocha Spring Ceremonial after 4 plus years that we have all missed out on.  It’s a time that we welcome New Candidates and raise awareness of our Temple, Shriners in general, Shriners Patients, and our Shriners Hospitals. Unfortunately, the Black Camel has taken several of our Nobles during this time.  The Ceremonial is a great time to reconnect with Nobles, ladies, and friends we missed.   I encourage you to attend the Spring Ceremonial, all Stated Meetings, and your Club or Unit meetings and to participate.  I strongly suggest that we all make this event a success by ordering your meals and registering for the parade now so that we can provide accurate numbers for all planning and catered events.  I have been fortunate to visit 7 of our Shriners Hospitals thus far and have spoken with patients and families who have praised the “exceptional medical treatments, care, and respect” that our Shriners Hospitals have provided for them.  The words echo how “the Shriners have helped change their lives for the better and how forever grateful they will be.”  I ask you Nobles to remember this and why you became a Shriner.

I look forward to seeing everyone in my hometown of St. Thomas on May 31 & June 1, 2024, while we represent this great fraternity and raise awareness.  

Ill Sir Terry Ronald
