FUTURE ACTIVITIES

I hope this note finds you all doing well. I want to remind you of a few items that are coming up soon.

First - our meeting DATE and LOCATION have been changed. We now meet on the 4th Monday of the month which is April 28th this month. The Meeting Location is Western Sizzlin across from Magnolia Mall. We will meet at 7pm and our guest speaker this month is Liz Collins speaking on a veterans project.

Cemetery Work Date - at Mt Hope on Saturday, April 26th - 9am at the soldiers monument. Come out, bring your kids or grand kids. Get them involved, that is what the SCV is all about - preserving, protecting and perpetuating the true history of the South. My children always look forward to working with the 'farmer'. (they call Jimmy Gamble the farmer because he usually wears overalls and a hat). Plan to come, bring a friend - we need your help. The more the merrier and faster we will get done. We should be finished by noon.

Flags placed on the graves on Friday, May 9th at 9am. Anyone that can help - please come.
Confederate Memorial Day - Saturday, May 10th, 11am at Mt Hope Cemetery. Bring a friend - tell somebody. Lets have over a hundred in attendance this year again! Plan now to come!


Poker Run fundraiser announced - Last Saturday in July (July 26th) hosted by the SC Division Mechanized Calvary
We will not meet again before the work date at Mt. Hope Cemetery on April 26th - please plan to attend - we need your help! Call me with questions.


sincerely,

Ron York
