On Friday September 29th, a Charity, Unity, Fraternity Exemplification was held at a hunting lodge outside Hillman.  Eight new members joined the Order, including Most Reverend Archbishop Paul Russell - Papal Nuncio! Archbishop Russell grew up in Alpena and happened to be visiting with the campers.
 
The degree was presented by the Gaylord traveling team.
