Antioch Potentate's Ball

Tonight was the Potentate's Ball for Antioch Shrine and our Potentate this year is Scott Lipps who is a Past High Priest and Past Master at my Lodge. We both served together in Blue Lodge line as well as the Shrine line. The difference was I worked for him as the presiding officer in Lodge and he got to work for me as the presiding office in Shrine. It was a nice affair with over 200 in attendance.You started off by coming down the red carpet with the Paparazzi greeting you. There were appetizer, drinks and pictures for everyone. They then did the normal introductions and at the end named an Antioch Patient Ambassador for the hospital and crowned her. After that the Shrine Awards (just as at the Oscars) were presented. We had a good dinner and dancing followed. It was a nice night and every Shrine got their very own Oscar to take home with them.
