Nobles,
Orak Shrine had a full month of Events in August. August 2nd started us off with our annual game with the Grinders Vintage Baseball Team at Deep River County Park. Orak Shrine was able to pull off a victory under the management of Noble Ross Bailey. The Deep River County Park Grinders host this event as a fundraiser for the Shriners Hospital for Children each year and it is always a fun day.
August 15th we had our annual Hog Roast and served over 400 dinners. Hog Roast chairman Frank Fotia and his committee set up a drive –thru service and ended up handing out over 100 dinners. Thank you all for the help and making the Hog Roast very successful!
August 22nd brought us the infamous Ladies Tea. Holding their breath, the Ladies proved their tenacity at getting things done. Besides having a wonderful Luncheon and the best servers, there was a basket raffle of 17 baskets. The Ladies Tea Cookbook, two years in the making by Cathy and Illustrious Sir Dave Moss, sold out! Both were a huge success! Congratulations to Nancy Minix for best table! Thank you to all who attended to help make this a great day and to the Ladies who decorated tables, they were outstanding!!
The week continued with the Sportsman’s Club Campout at Potato Creek State Park. Their Friday night Steak Dinner was praised by all who attended August 28th.
August 29th the Orak Golf Classic for the Shriners Hospital for Children was played at White Hawk Country Club. With a turn out of 202 people, 187 golfers and 15 –non-golfers, Orak again had a very successful charitable event for the Shriners Hospital. Thank you Nobles and Ladies for supporting our great philanthropy, Shriners Hospital for Children.
August 30th brought a great turn out of cars and bikes for first time chairman Bill Snyder. Nice weather added to the event with vendors, great music by Orak’s DJ Illustrious Sir Rick Elman, and Noble Dave Shivalec’s Elephant Ears and Pretzel truck.
That afternoon Motor Patrol added to the day with their annual Steak Fry. Many people enjoyed the delicious Steak dinner prepared by the mighty Orak Shrine Motor Patrol. What a wonderful day! Good food and great entertainment! Thanks to all who helped make it a successful day.
