[VAcourier] Annual Confederate Heritage Parade

[Virginia Division SCV Communication List]

ATTENTION ALL COMPATRIOTS:

THE ANNUAL CONFEDERATE HERITAGE PARADE IS LESS THAN 4 WEEKS AWAY AND SO 
FAR WE ONLY HAVE 10 VIRGINIA DIVISION CAMPS REGISTERED.

WHY?

THIS IS ONE OF THE FEW EVENTS LEFT THAT YOU CAN REALLY EXPRESS YOUR 
CONFEDERATE PRIDE AND TO HONOR YOUR CONFEDERATE ANCESTOR.

THERE IS STRENGTH IN NUMBERS AND  HOW ARE WE EVER GOING TO GET 
CONFEDERATE HISTORY AND HERITAGE MONTH RESTORED IN VIRGINIA  IF WE ONLY 
MARCH DOWN THE STREETS OF RICHMOND WITH JUST SEVERAL HUNDRED PEOPLE AS 
OPPOSED TO OVER THE THOUSAND WE HAD JUST A FEW YEARS AGO.  WE AREN'T 
GETTING THE SUPPORT FROM THE RE-ENACTMENT COMMUNITY LIKE WE USE TOO.

IT IS UP TO EVERY SINGLE CAMP IN THE VIRGINIA DIVISION. 

IF EVERY CAMP IN VIRGINIA WERE TO HAVE JUST 25 PERCENT OF THEIR 
MEMBERSHIP PARTICIPATE, THAT WOULD BE 1100 MARCHERS.  AND IF YOU CAN'T 
WALK THE 2.5 MILE ROUTE, THERE ARE WAGONS, TRAILERS TO RIDE ON.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST EVENTS THE VIRGINIA DIVISION SPONSERS EACH 
YEAR AND IT COSTS A LOT OF MONEY.  PLEASE SUPPORT IT.

THANK-YOU,

The Parade Committee
