Suez is made up of many different people and interests. Many members have formed various "clubs" or "groups" that specialize in certain areas of interest, such as clown units, band units, golfers, RVr's, Go-Karters, Pistol Shooters, just to name a few. Some of these units compete with other Shrine Centers through out Texas and /or they gather frequently to participate and practice in their specific areas. There are lots of activities and there certainly is something for everyone, so get involved with one or more, or even start up a new one! Activities range from 1/2 day events, to a week or more, in locations well known and some that you may have to take a back road or two. Through out the year, different units have different functions, so there is ALWAYS something going on. Be sure to find a few you like, and JOIN IN!
Some units meet monthly to practice or discuss event planning or they may be just visiting each other. The men and ladies of these units are the heartbeat of SUEZ. If you have a special interest that you feel others may also enjoy, feel free to try to start one up!
Most of our units are active in parades and other activities throughout the surrounding areas.
We have something for everyone no matter where you live in West Texas.
The Suez Provost Guard competed at Mid-Winter in Corpus Christi March 25th. Suez won 2nd in a Class, Sammy Stewart won High Point Over 70, Harvey Kaase won High Point Open and Tammy Shanks won 2nd in the Women’s Division. We still need more shooters. The Provost Guard will attend the next competition on June 16th at TSA in Waco. Rick Jones is considering running for a spot on the State Provost Guard Line and Abilene could be hosting a State Shoot in 2018. Shooting enthusiasts of all levels are encouraged to participate. If interested, call Provost Marshall Rick Jones at 325-260-7885.
The Directors Staff helps Suez, it’s members and the Divan put on Ceremonials and make new Shriners. We haul a trailer around with all of our gear, wear the cool red coverall and have the Directors Staff Badge on our fez. We also come up with new fun things to add to our Ceremonials and for competition at TSA. We would love to have you be a part of the fun.
