On October 13th, 2006, Albright College invited members of the Rajah Divan to their annual Hall of Fame Induction Dinner in order to present us with an award for our mutual cooperation in raising money for the Shriners Children's Hospitals during 56 years of Pretzel Bowl games.  Ill. Sir Jere Lesher in turn presented Albright's  President with an Imperial Shrine award.  Albright College had put an article in the September 25, 2006 issue of the NCAA News.
