2005 NATIONAL SCV REUNION

The SCV General Convention (National Reunion) will be returning to Middle Tennessee in 2005 and will be hosted by the Joseph E. Johnston SCV Camp # 28.

Camp 28 hosted the Convention in 1997, and it is an honor for Camp 28 to have the opportunity to return the Convention to Middle Tennessee in 2005. If you have any comments, suggestions, or thoughts on how we might be able to improve the Convention and to be of more service to the SCV membership, please do not hesitate to let me know!
Announcements and registration forms will be available at:

CALL TO ARMS
FRIDAY -MAY 9, 2003
SATURDAY - MAY 10, 2003
SCHOOL PROGRAM

Friday May 9th we will present our school program to 1,000 eighth grade students at Avery Trace Middle School. The Social Studies teachers are going to give the students additional credit if they attend the Historical Encampment at the Cookeville Museum on Saturday May 10th. We will give each student a "newly printed Confederate bill" which they can show their teacher to confirm their attendance.

ENCAMPMENT AT HISTORY MUSEUM

Ms. Judy Duke, Museums Curator for the City of Cookeville, has scheduled a Historical Encampment on the grounds of the Museum for the night of May 9th and the morning of May 10th. If you have a tent and would like to join in the fun, please mark your calendar and plan to be there.

MONUMENT FUNDRAISER - Saturday May 10

Mr. Grover Bennett Jr. has graciously accepted the responsibility of barbecuing Boston Butts that we will pre-sell for $20 each. We hope you will come to the Cookeville Museum on Saturday morning to visit with the reenactors and to pick up your barbecue. The ladies of the Capt. Sally Tompkins Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy will also be on hand to assist us.

This is a common fund raiser and should be a big success. Phone numbers to call to place an order and other details will be provided later.
