The Midwest Shrine Association holds two major functions each year. The winter session, held each February, is a business meeting (a stag event) for executive officers, committee heads and association units. The Summer conference is open to all Shriners and their families which includes a variety of social events, all-Shriner parades, and Unit competitions. These sessions rotate between the 14 Shrine Centers each year with the incoming President’s Shrine Center hosting both winter and summer sessions. However the organization and operation of Winter Session (business meetings) is the responsibility of the MSA while the organization and operation of Summer Session is the responsibility of the Host Temple.
