Aahmes Shriners Among Only Five Gold Membership Award Winners Nationwide
Today, we’re highlighting an exciting achievement within the world of Shrinedom and recognizing a Shrine Temple that continues to make a strong impact both locally and nationally — the Aahmes Shriners of Northern California.
Recently, Aahmes Shriners was honored by Shriners International with the prestigious 2025 Membership Gold Status Award. This recognition is presented to Shrine chapters that achieved membership growth of greater than one percent, but less than three percent, during the year.
“The Aahmes Shriners website, developed and managed by Masonic Webmaster,
has become an important tool in promoting membership, sharing news and events, and connecting both members and prospective Nobles to the fraternity.
Now, that may sound simple on paper, but the accomplishment is actually quite significant. Out of all Shrine temples across the country, only five chapters nationwide received the Gold designation in 2025 — and Aahmes Shriners proudly earned a place among that elite group. What makes this achievement even more remarkable is that Aahmes Shriners was the only Shrine Temple within the Western-Pacific Shrine Association to receive a Membership Hall of Fame badge in 2025. Even more notably, it was the only Shrine Temple west of Habibi Shriners in Louisiana to earn the recognition.
The award reflects more than just numbers. It represents the dedication of the temple’s leadership, membership, and volunteers who continue working to promote fellowship, community involvement, and the mission of Shriners Children’s throughout Northern California.Through public outreach, active participation in community events, and strong communication efforts, Aahmes Shriners has continued to build momentum and attract new members while maintaining a visible and engaged presence throughout the region.
An important part of that outreach effort has been the temple’s continued investment in maintaining a strong online presence. The Aahmes Shriners website, developed and managed by Masonic Webmaster, has become an important tool in promoting membership, sharing news and events, and connecting both members and prospective Nobles to the fraternity.
From publishing event coverage and announcements to improving accessibility and user experience, the website helps showcase the mission, fellowship, and charitable work that define Shrinedom today. As organizations increasingly rely on effective digital communication, Aahmes Shriners has demonstrated how a modern and well-maintained website can help strengthen engagement and support long-term growth.
This national recognition from Shriners International stands as a testament to the hard work and forward-thinking efforts of everyone involved with Aahmes Shriners. It’s an accomplishment worth celebrating and a strong sign of continued momentum for the future.
