I was asked to write a letter in reference to the car admitted to the Shrine Parade. I didn’t see the offensive ad displayed but was told about it — needless to say. I was informed that this entry will not be allowed in future parades. I am very upset with what I was told and apologize for our error in allowing this entry.

Shriners try to keep all clean and have fun. … the parade has always been a source of pride for us and would never knowingly allow this entry if we were aware of its offensive nature. Again — my apologies for our error.
