All Salaam Sir Nobles, Lady Nobles, and Sultana’s: March 2022
Grand Commanders Comments:
I grew up in Massachusetts where the winters seemed to last forever. By the time March came around most people were longing for spring and the better weather that they were hoping to get in March. There were some years when we had to wait for April to get some relief from the weather. Even then we would have the occasional snow fall which the spring sun would soon melt. Just remembering the New England winters reminds me of why I live in Southern California. Our winters can be cold and damp and along with the pandemic of the last two years we have been pretty much housebound as our northern brethren are every winter. However, at long last the pandemic is losing its hold on us and the weather is warming, giving us a chance to get out and do things. Which brings me to my next subject. The monthly Ben Ziri Caravan meeting is on March17th, 2022. 1pm at the KofC Hall located in the Mission San Luis Rey Parish. That’s right, St. Patrick’s Day, so remember to put on your green and come and join your Ben Ziri friends as we attend to the business of the caravan. In order for us to remain viable as a caravan we need to have input from all of our members even those who are unable to attend the meeting. I invite any member who has a subject that they wish to have discussed at the meeting to call the Grand Commander or myself and we will put the item on the agenda for the next meeting. Our membership has always been involved in the running of the caravan and that is one of the main reasons that we are still a functioning caravan, able to continue our mission of helping the mentally handicapped. Stay well and God bless. Tony A
