While this BLOG gives you a glimpse into the things going on at the Shrine.....today, I will give you a glimpse at some of the items the Potentate gets to handle in a day (and today was slower than most!)...
- Meeting with the Membership Chairman to discuss future ceremonials, dues collection, restorations and new members
- Potentates Ball planning (following up on about 10 different items all dealing with different folks)
- Information distribution for Ohio Shrine
- Communications distribution to specific Clubs and Units
- Making at least 10 calls to resolve various questions and concerns from Nobles, Units and Clubs
- Sending out thank you notices
Following up on these items:
- Building cooling concerns
- Financial questions about the budget
- Insurance waiver's for clubs/units at events
- By-law changes for multiple clubs/units
- Club and Unit Parade requests
- Reporting questions from Tampa
- On the "MIA" Yearbook
- Following up on the legal implications of a couple of items
- Sales for Dayton Dragons tickets
- Various items for Friday Night Bites in May through August with the various groups sponsoring the evening (along with Aides and Divan Reps) to make sure plans are progressing
- Imperial and GLSA meetings
And I'm sure I missed a few for today but that should give you an idea. But despite all these "to do's" on a daily basis, it is all worth it when you think about the fact that you are getting an opportunity every day to make a difference in some child's life through our support for the Shriner's Hospitals.
