Welcome to the Website of Allegheny Valley Caravan No. 16!

Those of you who do not know what the Shrine is all about, let us tell you! It is all about helping children through the Shriners Hospitals! Be sure to follow the link to the Shriners of North America to learn more about the only Hospitals to provide free care to children regardless of their race, creed, or religion. In fact, the only requirement is that the child be in need of help that the Hospitals can provide. The Shriners Hospitals for Children do an amazing job. Did you know they have no billing department? That's right, they don't charge the families of the patients nor any insurance companies. One thing they do have is a dedicated, caring staff of health care professionals!

As always, Caravan No. 16 tries to have some fun and our Website is no different. We have links to other Shrine and Masonic related sites as well as those we find interesting. If you would like to submit a link, please let our Webmaster know via Email.

The photos in our Photo Album are from various events we have had. Make sure you check out the ones from the Children's Christmas Party, they're GREAT! Don't forget to check our schedule for dates, times, and locations of our upcoming events.

Be sure to read about the Caravan's history which includes a section about joining the Caravan, the Shrine, and other Masonic related bodies. If you're already a member of the Shrine, come on out to one of events and you will see what a good time we have. If you're not a member of the Shrine but think you might like to be, Email us and let us know of your interest. We'll provide you with the information you seek and an invitation to our next event.
