Sixteen special-interest Units provide the Illustrious Potentate and Aladdin Shrine with a wide range of talents which add immeasurably to the success of our Shrine. Over eleven hundred Unit members are relied upon to assist their directors and the Officers of the Center in conducting worthwhile activities, meeting membership and other goals, and promoting the good name of Shrinedom. Unit responsibilities are varied and include operation of audio equipment, initiation of candidates, entertainment (via the Clown, Chanters, Dixieland Band, Steel Drums, Pipes and Drums Band and Patrol), participation in parade and ceremonial events, medical assistance, security and escort services. The Units also serve to (1) bring together the Nobles with common interest so they may better serve the Illustrious Potentate in furtherance of Center programs, and (2) assure an additional opportunity for fun and fellowship while performing assignments or engaging in social events. Directors and supporting officers of the 16 Units are listed on the individual Unit pages. Primary responsibilities of each group are outlined briefly at the bottom of each listing. |
