What’s New Around LuLu
A Message from the President
Dear Nobles and Ladies:
Dear Nobles and Ladies:
I want to thank everyone for attending our
installation brunch. We had a great turnout of over
50 Nobles and Ladies. KC Prime did an
outstanding job. Laird is to be commended for
being the MC. It is important to thank our officers
for 2014 and give them a pat on the back for doing
an outstanding job. There are a significant number
of times when someone does something and we
hear that something is wrong. We don't tell our
officers and members how well they did all the
other times. We need to do that more.
On January 24, 2015 LuLu will once again
host a Breakfast With The Grand Master. This affair
honors the RWGM and the Ill Potentate of LuLu
Shrine. This is a great opportunity to hear what our
RWGM’s plans are for the upcoming year as well as
hear from the Potentate. It is also a great way to get
men in your Lodge interested in joining LuLu Shrine
and QCMSC. We have not taken a table this year
since most of our members seem to prefer sitting
with their Lodges. I am looking forward to seeing you
there. Don’t forget to bring your Fez!
As we move into 2015, our February 4th
meeting is at Giuseppe's Pizza and Family
Restaurant, 1380 West Street Road, Warminster,
PA. This should be an outstanding meeting with
Fabian Ulitsky, a psychologist with over 50 years of
clinical and teaching experience in Philadelphia as
our speaker. He will offer a refreshing view of Love
and Marriage in our modern era. His talk will
include some of the lies we were taught and many
of our common misconceptions on this topic. He
will provide dynamic insights and psychological
understanding concerning the causes of “Marital
Blitz” and offer some solutions for resolving them
There will be a “Golden Oldies” night in the
main ballroom at LuLu on February 13th. Details have
not been posted on our website yet, but you can go
to www.lulushriners.org and go to the calendar for
updates.
Our March 5th meeting will be a men's night
out. I am still trying to firm up the restaurant. Our
April meeting will be held on Sunday April 12th. The
restaurant has yet to be determined.. There will be
a discussion about Shriner's Hospital and an
upcoming Walk-A-Thon to be held on April 26th.
Continued on Page 2
On March 15th Lulu Shrine will celebrate The
6 Annual National Women’s History Month with a
Ladies only luncheon. The luncheon will run from 12
noon to 3:00 PM. The featured speaker is Pearl
Polto. She is a nationally known author, Talk Show
host and credit expert. The cost is $15 per person
and includes a light lunch, dessert and beverages.
RSVP by March 7, 2015. See the back page of the
Fez for more info.
th
Our annual Breakfast with the Easter Bunny
will be held on March 22nd.
