2003 Lodge Ordeal Weekend Gallery
 |
The 2003 Shu-Shu-Gah Lodge Ordeal was again
situated at Camp Keowa at TMR. On the Weekend of May 16-18, 49 new
Brothers were inducted into our Order. Greatly needed service was
provided to the camp when candidates set up tents and cots, moved
old tent platforms, and waterproofed several buildings. We awarded
some of our annual awards and for the first time presented the Len
S. Charity Chapter Achievment Award. Shu-Shu-Gah also had the privildge
of elevating 2 Brothers to the Vigil Honor. |
