The best way to enjoy your membership
in the Shriners fraternity is to participate,
and a great way to participate is to join a
club or unit. Shrine clubs essentially serve as “minitemples.” Clubs are created in the temple’s
outlying areas to keep nobles active and
involved in Shriners activities – kind of
like satellite groups, with all members
belonging to the same temple. Units are made up of groups of nobles
with similar interests. Service units
benefit the nobility or the temple and
may include policing, maintenance,
first-aid or hospitality. Performing units
primarily provide entertainment for
Shriners or the general public. Examples
include clown groups, marching bands
and mini-car drivers. Units usually
participate in community parades, and
many compete against similar units
from other temples. The main purposes of Shrine clubs
and units are to: • Promote interest in Shrinedom
among members by offering
fellowship and fun activities for
nobles and their families. • Connect members who have
similar interests. • Raise awareness of the Shriners
fraternity in local communities. • Educate the public about Shriners
Hospitals for Children. • Conduct fundraisers to benefit
Shriners Hospitals for Children,
and temple, club or unit operations. Al Amin Shrine Units
