The Provost Guard is one of ARABA Temple's finest and oldest units. The Provost Guard was formed for the purpose of maintaining law and order within the Temple and is entrusted with the protection of the persons of the Nobility and property of the Temple. The Provost Guard assists in all other activities as decreed by the Potentate or Marshal. Members of the Provost Guard solicit funds at parades to build up the "Button Account" which support the Shrine and its Children's Hospitals.

The Provost Guard meets at ARABA Temple the second Monday of the month (excluding July and August) at 11:00 a.m. After the business meeting, members enjoy lunch and fellowship at a local restaurant. We try to have a social, either lunch or dinner with our ladies on a monthly basis. We attend stated meetings and the morning portion of ceremonials as a uniformed unit. The Provost Guard at the meeting assists with presentation of the colors.

The Provost Guard is composed of former law enforcement, security and military members, others of us are not. All Shriners not already in a parade unit are welcome. If interested in joining the Provost Guard please contact Jon H Lynch by eMail.
