A living history exhibit will be in place at the Radisson with a tent and the
personal equipment of Sgt Frost Decker
Registration is set to start at 7:00 am, opening ceremonies to start at
9:00AM
NEW BUSINESS:
John Hart suggested we bring a proposal to the National Encampment to have
students still in school, especially High School and College, be allowed to pay
½ dues because of other financial concerns at
that time.
It is believed that
this would help retain younger members that might have to decide between our
order and something else.
The 4th of July flag ceremony was discussed and Russ Jones
volunteered to carry the Spanish American war flag. The other flag bearers would
be decided before the event.
With no further business, questions or discussion, a motion to adjourn was made
and the meeting was closed in ritualistic manner.
