Shrine Circus 2012
Circus time is most certainly for the young and the old
to enjoy. Just take a look at the happy lady to the left.
She is Carol Roettle, former resident of Groton, who is
now residing at the Sun-Dial Manor Nursing Home in
Bristol, SD. When asked if she wanted to attend the
Circus, she replied, “Only if I get to ride the elephant.”
Her wish came true. Riding with her is her official escort, Andrea Bloom.
THANK YOU!
I want to thank all the Nobles, Ladies and Volunteers for working the circuses
in Aberdeen and Huron.
Without your hard work we could not have had all
the successful circuses.
With your help it made my job easier and the circuses a big success.
Kenneth Erickson, Circus Chairman
Potentate’s Message
Thank you...Thank you...
And ”wunnerful… wunnerful!” If Lawrence Welk
were still around, he and I
would be expressing these
sentiments toward all of the folks whom
have helped me, as I have now completed
almost 4 months of my Potentate year.
We’ve all been busy this year, but this month
has been the wildest yet. Before I go any further, let me thank all of you one more time
for this opportunity to guide Yelduz Temple
thru 2012! Becoming Potentate was something I took great pride in, until I became
one. I am finding the real sense of satisfaction, attached to this position, as I observe
the accomplishments of others and the success of events for which we all work so hard.
This year is ours to share, and so far we’ve
got a lot of which to be proud and thankful.
This is not my year...it’s OUR year! I’m just
the Noble that was entrusted with the position to lead us for 365 days. Imperial has
given me the authority to lead, but they cannot give me the POWER to lead. That power
comes from earning your respect and I will
strive to do so for the next eight months.
Since the last Yelduz news letter publication we have had several very successful
events to be proud of. The Spring Ceremonial, that brought us five new Nobles, started
us off. The Ceremonial was well attended by
Yelduz Nobles while the ladies enjoyed an
afternoon with my Lady Patti at the Dakota
Prairie Museum. Special thanks to Pat
Schroeder for inviting the ladies over to
share a glass of wine at her condo, at the historic Ward Hotel. Special recognition was
given to Kevin Harr for the effort he put in
making the ceremonial successful. The
wrecking Crew did their part, but you gotta
miss the old days. We ended the day with a
great meal prepared by Steve Goehring, and
PP Bruce Likness lead us thru the Arch Production with professional directorship. A
great time was had by all and I know the
new Nobles got a good first impression of the
Shrine because several attended the April
Stated Meeting. Were you there?
I asked Nobles at the Stated Meeting to help
at both the Huron and Aberdeen Circuses and
to wear their fez. I am proud to say that request was granted beyond expectation! I saw
at least 15 Nobles from outside the Huron Area
helping our brothers from down south and I
was told by may of the regular workers that
they appreciated the efforts from all. The new
circus, Circus Spectacular, was a huge success
and I heard nothing but praise from the spectators as they left the arena, both in Huron
and Aberdeen. At both venues, the doors of
the arena were held open by Nobles, who
thanked the people for coming to the circus.
This gave us good contact with the crowd and
a chance to get both negative and positive
feedback.. The overwhelming response was
that they enjoyed a fresh, new show! We can
all thank Past Potentate Alan Grupe for making the change and Kenny Erickson for finding the new show. Most of all I’d like to thank
the James Valley Shrine Club and all the associate clubs & units for going along with the
change. I hope you’re as please with results as
I was! It took a real leap of faith from everyone but it looks like it was a good one!
I enjoyed presenting the flags at our circus
and we have a new Color Guard from the
Ringneck Shrine Club to assist next year. Aberdeen found the same reception when the
new Circus Spectacular performed. We
packed the arena four of the seven performances. Hearing nothing but positive feedback,
as we Nobles held the doors at both Huron and
Aberdeen, gives me 100% satisfaction with the
decision to change Circus promoters. This is a
huge relief after some of the negative reaction
to my decision to follow thru with the change
to Circus Spectacular! We came into this decision with some uncertainty about it’s outcome, and found that change was not only
positive, but also more enjoyable for our patrons, who are so valuable for our success. Because of the decision made by some of the
members of the Northeaster Shrine Club to go
forward with a Non Shirne Circus, I cannot
comment beyond this point. This matter will
be resolved thru proper, and now eminent
Shrine Jurist Prudence.

Shrine Circus 2012
Pictured above is the colored guard who
presented the colors along with the
Chanters who did a great job of singing
the National Anthem at the start of the
circus performance.
Pictured above are children enjoying
their rides on the elephants. They were
also able to ride the ponies if they wished
to.
I know Past Potentates are just supposed to fade away, but I have a few comments about our just completed
Shrine Circuses. Weren’t they just super. The producer Cindy Migley did a great job. I have heard nothing but
favorable comments on it. I think the public was ready for a change.
It takes a lot of time and work to pull these events off. I would like to thank Noble Dale Fortin, president
of the James Valley Shrine Club and all his committees for pulling together for a very successful Circus. Also I
would like to thank the Nobles from the Aberdeen area that went to Huron to help where they could.
I’ve been thanking all the Nobles, but you and I know we could not do this without our Ladies. Ladies,
thank you very much.
One last note. The Circus does not just appear at the Huron Arena or the Aberdeen Civic Arena. It takes
many hours of work before hand. This includes truck loads and trailer loads of everything you see there.
Namely food, snow cone machines, cotton candy machines and novelties - just to name a few. I know in
Aberdeen we do this the day before. And after the final performance it all goes back to the Shrine Center. It is
a very big job.
Maybe next year we could have more help in getting this job done. As I said before, we are all Yelduz.
In closing, I would just like to thank everyone again. If it weren’t for all you Nobles and Ladies of the James
Valley Shrine Club and all of the Aberdeen area Nobles and Ladies—we could not do this.
I would like to thank all the Nobles and Ladies also of the Britton Shrine Club that helped in any way at the
Circus. You did just great—as always.
Until next year, may every day be a Circus Day.
Alan Grupe, PP
Message From the Recorder - Dan Vetter
Spring has arrived and the Huron and Aberdeen
Circuses are over with. I want to thank all the nobles, ladies and volunteers for their hard work to
make them successful. It goes to show that if everyone helps we have fun working together.
Past dues notices will be going out shortly and
nobles we need your help in getting our nobles
who are in arrears current.
The Divan request that each unit check over
their area’s and clean up the unwanted material
and request disposition of the items that are no
longer needed or used.
Summer is rolling around the corner. Please
get your parade request in for the potentate to sign
so you are covered by our insurance. Get the requests in even if you are not sure you will be attending.
There are a lot of activites coming up by different units and clubs. Please check your calendar
for dates and plan on attending.
Roadrunner News
The May Roadrunners meeting has
been cancelled and will be held June 24,
2012 after the pancake breakfast. Please
plan on attending the breakfast on April
22nd. We have lots of room so you can
sit and visit with your fellow nobles and
friends.
Dan Vetter, Secretary
ONIONS
Please turn in your order for onions by May 3, 2012 at
the stated meeting. Deliver date is the end of May.
Cost of onions is $1.00 per lb. They are sold in 5 lb
bag & 10 lb bags.
A Note from the Assistant Rabban
As this year is quickly being eaten up and the Yelduz Shrine Circus is behind us in the two larger venues, the
schedule continues to move along rapidly. I would remind everyone of Hospital Days May 18 & 19. This would
be a great opportunity for us to renew our mission. Please make plans to attend.
The divan continues to move forward in its effort to bring Yelduz Shrine into compliance with Shrine Law
and the Temple by-laws. High Priest and Profit George Parmeter has spent hours preparing a manual for our
temple. We have yet to figure out how to format it, so it is most easily updated and also how to dispense it to the
nobility.
Treasurer David Siemon brought back an idea from the Treasurers Association Meeting and has suggested the
Temple look into Auto Pay for dues. This genterated some good discussion at the Divan meeting. Dave and I
are to visit with Dacotah Bank and get all the information and report back to the full Divan. Again, this would be
another big change. If you have experiences with such, good or bad, please relay them to a member of the Divan.
The Spring Ceremonial brought in 5 new Nobles with a special effort by the Ringneck Shrine Club. Thank
you to Kevin Harr for his leadership. If your Club or Unit has not planned a “rush party” now would be the time.
I have talked to the Mobridge Shrine Club about putting together a golf outing and you all could come up with
something as well.
What a fun time was had at the Huron and Aberdeen Shrine Circus. The people enjoyed the show and we had
many compliments. Some of us were able to greet the people as they arrived and left the event. Everyone was
working hard and together which made for a successful and FUN time.
Here is a thought; “Occasional failure is the price of improvements.”
Rod Simons, Asst. Rabban
High Priest & Prophet
THANK YOU TO THE NOBLES AND LADIES OF YELDUZ SHRINE FOR THEIR HARD WORK IN
THEIR PREPARATION AND PERFORMANCE DURING THE TWO SHRINE CIRCUSES IN HURON
AND ABERDEEN.
I know that both Aberdeen and the James Valley Shrine Club are grateful for all the work the many volunteers
put in over the last few months that culminated in giving the public as numerous people and one lady in particular
put it, “one of the greatest, cleanest, and most wholesome family entertainment events she has been to in many
years. Another person said it was the best in 38 years. The new show has won overwhelming support from the
public which we appreciate very much.
These great circuses were the result of Nobles and their families and friends from Aberdeen, Britton, James
Valley, Mobridge and Oahe Shrine Clubs, plus several from Watertown, working together to have a fun and fulfilling time. It was a difficult process, that has paid off.
I might add that we had Nobles from Mitchell in El Riad territory come to the Huron Circus. I also saw a few
El Riad fezzes in Aberdeen. The circuses were a rousing success. We still have the Pierre, Mobridge & Eagle
Butte circuses in July and need to turn out to assist them also.
A big thanks to Dave Peterson of Huron, James Valley’s “Cotton Candy Man” for the last 20 years who was a
“ go to man” in helping the Aberdeen circus with its Cotton candy machines and a couple of emergencies. After
the Huron circus, he took unsold cotton candy to community nursing homes for those able to have some, but unable to attend the circus. Dave came to Aberdeen and repaired broken machines and then volunteered to take all
the machines back to Huron to clean and repair for when we need them next.
Another big thank you is due to those who donated bicycles to give away at the circuses in both Aberdeen and
Huron. The smiles on the winning children’s faces spoke volumes regarding the kindness and generosity of the
people behind those gifts.
Our new circus committee will begin its work to evaluate, share ideas, learn from each other, and get ready for
our next round of circuses. We remind each club to appoint two members to sit on the committee that will coordinate the planning of future circuses.
The annual Hospital Day is May 18 and we encourage as many people as can, to join us on the bus
trip to the Twin Cities for the Hospital tour. The bus will leave Aberdeen the day before and will stop along the
way to pick people up.
The televisions we have purchased will be given to the hospital at that visit. The cost of a television for a patient room with installation that will be able to be operated from bed controls is $1,278.15. The Televisions that
have been purchased will be given to the hospital to use in the Lobby and elsewhere in the hospital. We will pool
the money already received to purchase patient room TV’s. Shrine Clubs and individuals wishing to donate money
should send the funds to the Temple and mark them for hospital televisions before May 10. Please do not send
money directly to the hospital for this project. Give me a call if you have questions.
A draft of the Yelduz Handbook for Nobles has been given to the Divan for proofreading and evaluation and
will be in the nobility’s hands soon. It’s our hope that it will become a valuable resource for us in the future.
Don’t forget membership and our need to find new nobles to share in the fun and fellowship of the Shrine.
The more members we have, the more who can have fun helping kids.

Ladies Auxiliary News
“Pearls from Patti”
I am sitting in a lovely motel in Minneapolis at the Women’s
Auxiliary Annual meeting. Interesting weather we have had in the
past 24 hours! We drove here in rain & fog...we had tornado
warnings all evening and now it is snowing!!
2012 is proving to be quite a learning experience for me! I’m
learning to be a new wife; relearning the ropes of a new town; trying to learn the in’s and out’s of “Shrines and Nile;”not to
mention attempting to fulfill my duties as the Potentate’s wife and Ladies Auxiliary President. I
worked 7 circuses; (prepared a million nachos) and now am in Minneapolis at the auxiliary meeting.
This meeting will prove to gain more understanding of the Ladies Auxiliary for me. A check for
$2,671.87 from our Yelduz Ladies Auxiliary was donated to the general fund for the auxiliary in Minneapolis on April 16th. Another check for $2,804.82 was donated last December.
I was so impressed of the inner workings of running the circus. I had NO CLUE, as most of the
general public wouldn’t. What a devoted group of wonderful individuals who come together, donating countless hours of hard work, Mark Christensen-you are my hero! Kenny Erickson- ”hats off” to
you. My heartfelt thanks to all of the volunteers who worked to achieve the 7 successful circuses
that were held. I have heard myriad comments on what an exceptional circus Yelduz put forth this
year. Circus Spectacular was a great hit! Change has proven to be a good thing.
Spring Ceremonial was a lot of fun. Fourteen gals (pictured above) went to tour the Dakota Museum; had a little wine at Pat Schroeder’s temporary “digs” at the Ward Hotel; and that was followed by a good meal & fellowship at the Temple. At the April program I followed up the “historical”
theme of “Life in the 1500’s” and a Mother Goose game to test the ladies’ memory of their childhood nursery rhymes. Continuing this history concept…our program on May 3rd (Stated Meeting
Night) will be given by Sherry from the Dakota Museum on “Fan communication.” This was of particular interest to those of us who went on the museum tour. I hope to see many of you that
evening.
Thank you! Patti Rea
Yelduz Shrine was well
represented at the Ladies
General Auxiliary meeting
held in the cities on
April 16th & 17th.

Chanters Notes
The Chanters are very busy working on their new
music that they are preparing for the Imperial Session
this July 2012 in Charlotte, NC.
We have been doing a lot of fundraising to help with
the costs that will be incurred. Some of the events
started last year in October when the Chanters put on a
concert for the Potentates bus trip from Michigan.,
which was traveling through on their way back home.
We had a ball with them.
Next we had a Dessert Bar concert in December. It
was greatly attended and will become an annual event
with many new Christmas tunes planned for next year.
Along with a special Christmas CD planned.
The Chanters started practice again this March. We
have added some new faces and unfortunately lost a
few. Our deepest sympathy to their families and
friends. They will be greatly missed. The Chanters
(West) we’ll call it, held a Dinner theater along with the
New Hope Foundation (Cancer Support).
Our crew, under the supervision of Rod Simons,
was in charge of preparing dinner. They did a great job
and this will also be an annual event.
The Chanters are will be singing this summer at
churches in Huron and also entertaining at the Grand
Lodge held in June.
If you are looking for a group for entertaining at an
event, keep the Chanters in mind, we would love to
help. Also, if you or any clubs or units, would like to
help the Chanters defray some of their travel expenses
to Imperial., give a call to:
Tom Dafnis at 605-848-1906
or
Bruce Redding at 605-845-8908
Or you may call the Yelduz office at 605-225-4841
