Pote’s Notes.....
I
am honored to serve as your Potentate
for the Shrine year 2008. As with the
Potentates before me the priority will be
on membership. We have to reverse the
yearly decline in membership. I plan to
place a greater emphasis on the Shrine
Clubs. We will be concentrating on
making them grow. I hope that we will
get a better attendance at the ceremonials.
We are sending the wrong message to
the new Nobles by not being there
to welcome them as Shriners.
Please do your best to be there
and invite them to join you at your
club or unit. The Divan is here to
support you. Please do not hesitate to
call on your liaison member.
My lady Irene and I are doing our best to plan a fun and
exciting year. March 6,7 and 8 we will be in Laughlin for our
first Ceremonial. This is always a fun weekend. Try to join us for a fun time. March 15 is the
Ladies Luncheon and the Review of the Troops by the Imperial Potentate. This is a call out for the
Units and a plea for the rest of the Nobles to come and hear the Imperial Potentate speak. April 21
is the Stated Meeting. We will be serving an excellent dinner and will have a speaker on a topic
of interest. Please bring your lady and join us. The Circus is three days this year,
April 25, 26 and 27. As always we need workers. If you can work a day or two
please join us, ladies are invited to help. May 4th we are bringing the
Jr. Philharmonic Orchestra back to the temple. Don’t miss this. May
10 to 15 we will be traveling to Branson, MO. This is going to be
an outstanding trip. Don’t forget the Santa Maria Parade on May 31.
The second Ceremonial will be June 14 at the Shrine Hospital. The
Imperial Session is in St. Louis, MO, June 29 to July 3. Saturday, July
12 we will be having a pancake breakfast with our stated meeting,
family is invited. Watch the Al Malaikan and the Al Malaikah Web
Site for more details and future events.
Let’s put Al Malaikah where it belongs and that is the number 1 Temple
in North America. Support your temple and let’s have a great ’08.
Hal Justice, Potentate

Shriners Hospitals for Children and the Art of Elysium Give
Young Patients a Rare Treat in Painting a Rolling Canvas
L
os Angeles teamed up with The Art of Elysium
(an organization that encourages actors, artists
and musicians to dedicate their time and
talent to children who are battling serious medical
conditions) to provide a rare treat for the patients of
the hospital. In honor of their 10 year anniversary, the
Art of Elysium arranged for Ford Motor Company to
donate a new Ford Escape Hybrid to the organization.
The vehicle was then brought to the hospital where
patients and celebrity volunteers transformed it into
a rolling canvas by using brightly colored paints and
markers. The newly painted Escape is scheduled to
be auctioned at the upcoming Art of Elysium 10th
anniversary event to be held on Saturday, January 12th

Helping the Shriners Hospitals patients with the
canvas in front of the hospital
artwork were celebrities Jason Bateman, Alicia Witt,
Amy Smart and Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Allison Beck, National Program Director for
the Art of Elysium states, “The goal of our work with Shriners Hospitals is to inspire the children creatively and
give them a break from the day-to-day reality of being in a hospital receiving medical treatment. This has been a
fantastic experience not only for the children, but for everyone involved as well.”
Anna Pereira, manager of the hospital’s Child Life and Recreation Therapy Department continues, “The
kids loved exploring painting with their hands and arms. Since they are rarely encouraged to get their hands “dirty”
while receiving treatment, this event was a big treat!” Shriners Hospitals for Children is proud of our association
with the Art of Elysium and looks forward to working together throughout 2008 in providing medical and social
support for the children that we serve.
D
Past Potentate Plays Golf For Kids
uring the week of October 8th thru October 14th the Shrine Hospitals for Children was in most of the
news reports covering golf tournaments. The Fry’s. Co open was played in Las Vegas Nevada at the TPC
Summerlin and TPC Canyons Country Clubs. The Shrine Hospitals for Children was the named charity for
the proceeds of the event.
Because of my friendship with the chairman of the event, Gary Davis a member of Zelzah Shrine in Las Vegas,
I offered to work the tournament as a volunteer. It was an amazing experience and thrilling to see the amount
of publicity the hospitals received during the entire week ofthe tournament. The Shrine Hospital’s name was
everywhere to be seen; television, newspapers, printed material that was handed out to spectators and so on.
Several past Imperial Potentates were in attendance including our own Nick Thomas. Nick and I played for two
days in the pro-am portion of the tournament with some wonderful golf professionals. We·did not play together and
it was said that Nick may have ran out of golf balls. Nick may have spent so much time in the rough that he forgot
that the green stuff is where you are suppose to play from, usually referred to as the fairway.
Next year the Shrine Hospital for Children will be, not only, the host of the tournament but the title sponsor as
well. This will elevate our name to a very high level of publicity and allow us to reach thousands of people who do
not necessarily watch our famed East West Football game. It takes about 700 volunteers to make this happen and I
hope you will join me being there to add our names to list of workers.
Fraternally, Dennis Shaffer P.P.

et me begin by saying Thank You, the Nobility, for the honor of electing
me to serve another year as your Recorder. I promise to continue putting
your interest in front of all others.
Congratulations to Illustrious Potentate Hal Justice, his Lady Irene, as well as the Elected and Appointed Divan.
With everyone working together as one we can only succeed.
We have to get very serious with Membership; at the Stated Meeting I reported that we suspended 150 Nobles
plus the Black Camel taking 261 more.
Nobles we just cannot survive much longer losing this large a number of Nobles. Let’s start doing
something about it!
First when attending Lodge let it be known that you are a Shriner impress upon your Brothers what
we do as Shriners, taking care of Children at no cost to patient or family, make arrangements for these
brothers to visit Shriners Hospital in L.A. Once they see what we do for the Children they will want to
join.
Have them and their ladies visit one of our Units or Shrine Club monthly dinners as your guest.
This applies to Nobles who have fell by the wayside, they can be Reinstated at a small cost of $85.00
lets get them back into the fold.
The Potentate is working hard setting up programs at the Temple to bring you down, we are
having the Junior Philharmonic back this year, there will be no charge for this program, a
minimal charge for parking, so what a good time to bring a fellow mason and his family down
here to see this beautiful building. Let’s not forget the non-mason you can invite them and
introduce them to masonry at this event.
In
Memoriam
Whatever I can do to help just ask! For more info on membership give our Chairman a call,
Bill Stines (951) 780-0689 he will be more than happy to help you, or call me at the office.
“God rested them in Peace”
To the land of promised rest,
Their work is done and the setting sun
Has sealed their life’s request.
They have left this earthly strand
For the house beyond the sea,
Though the past is gone,
They will still live on
To us all- Sweet is our memory.

Nobles we have to start doing something NOW!
1 new member per Noble would double our membership; just think about it, in 5 years we
could be back to the 25,000 memberships.
This can be done but we NEED YOU TO MAKE IT WORK.
Fraternally, Tom Reoch
Potentate Hal Justice and his Lady Irene cordially
invite all Al Malaikah Shrine members, widows
and friends to join them on on a fantastic trip:

he Shrine year 2007 has
completed, each year
we try to improve our
fun things with the Nobility and
their ladies. Well the Nobles and
their ladies along with kids and
grandkids were treated to a fantastic
“Family Holiday Concert” at the
Shrine Auditorium. The show was
headlined by “The Los Angeles
Police Department Band”, with
“The Singing Cop” and his wife
Cristina, and special guest star Davis
Gaines, star of “The Phantom of the
Opera”. There was an enthusiastic
audience of 300, that isn’t much of
a crowd for an auditorium that seats
6300. Nobility has been asking for
a family show well we finally put
one on thanks to chairmen David
Chernik. Don Holcomb band director
said he would like to make it an
annual “Family Show”, lets show
are support for future endeavors and
come out and enjoy next years show.
I want to thank all that have helped
in some way to put on different
events in 2007, remember this is
our Temple what ever we do is for
the benefit and fun for the Nobility.
Least we forget our philanthropy
“Shriners Hospital for Children”.
The Temple and the hospital is our
responsibility to make them as best
we can for the benefit of all.
