This weekend the 3rd Capitular District will be out in force as we park cars for the Antioch Shrine Circus. We had one show tonight, two tomorrow and one on Sunday. I'm hoping all times the weather is like tonight for while it was a little chilly, it was better weather than it has been at times in the past. We are using the money to help fund the year we have the Grand High Priest from our District, help to fund social activities in the District and provide funds from our District to show our support for the Grand Chapter charity. In the past, we also have used some funds to "thank" the shrine for the opportunity to have this fund raiser by donating some of the earnings back to Antioch to help out at the Shrine building. I'm very thankful for the support provided by our District for this project as they continue to step forth to work outside in the challenging elements for several hours at a time, even at times when the weather has been unbearably cold and unbelievably messy from several inches of snow and slush. All toll I expect we will park close to around 5,000 cars this year over the weekend when you take into account those paying for parking along with the circus volunteers.
