Tonight was the Antioch Circus wrap meeting and I was very anxious to see the results as part of our Chapter fund raiser is to assist with the parking and is where we make our money. We have done very well on this in the past and this year came up with a new formula which would allow us to keep the job but reduce the percentage amount we would receive. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the amount but even happier when I saw the net profit for the Shrine increased again for the circus overall. Just three years back when I was Potentate in 2012, we did some significant changes to the administrative portion of the circus as the amount of profit we received almost didn't justify having the circus. I'm glad to say the changes made (and the few we continue to make) keep helping us every year to inch up on the profit and attendance standpoint and we are back to the point that the circus allows the Shrine to continue to stay in business as this is our only real major fund raiser.
