ORMAZD GROTTO, Orlando, Florida is undergoing a complete makeover. The Ballroom has been completely remodeled, the dining room received a facelift and the outside is undergoing a makeover. You must see this place to appreciate the hard work that’s gone in to it this year. The outgoing Monarch, Kenneth Jay Mueller, has put forth his ideas on raising funds for the remodeling and we owe him a great deal of gratitude and appreciation for his many hours of hard work. The President of the Temple Association, Jim Gillespie, has been working side by side with the Monarch this year and has spent many hours on the phone and just plain hard work at the Grotto. The new Monarch, Craig Frazier, has some big shoes to fill and we look forward to working with him. Our Doctor of Smiles, Pedro Arroyo, has been doing a fantastic job with the program and we are looking forward to his making Ormazd Grotto number one in North America. Congratulations to the newly installed officers of Ormazd Grotto and its members. May goodfellowship prevail.
