The next two events are the Marlboro parade on Monday, September 6 and the Sudbury Faire on Saturday, September 28th. Please make sure your uniforms are clean and mended. If you need help with any of your kit, call Steven and he can guide you. Our regimental birthday party and annual cookout will be at Steven and Heather Taskovics (Editor's Note: the party will be at Bryon and Anita Bausk's) house after the parade and it would be courteous if you could bring something to help celebrate. Even if you can’t make the parade, please try to attend the party and get to know the off- field side of the other members.
A FEW WORDS ABOUT CAMP ETIQUETTE:
- Keep the muskets out of the cooking and eating areas.
- If you leave camp to roam around and visit, check the wood and water first, replenish them if necessary, and always let someone know you are leaving.
- Volunteer to help with the cleanup or preparation. You may not be needed, but then again you may make the difference in getting a meal ready in time.
- Do not leave personal belongings in the eating/cooking/dining area. Don’t wait for someone to ask you to put away your things because they are in the way.
- Alcohol – most of the sites have rules about NO alcohol on the property, but they seldom enforce the rules. We should respect and honor their trust in us and be responsible in our consumption and in the cleanup of the litter afterwards. NO MOONSHINE. EVER. Any alcohol brought into camp must be labeled with the percentage of the alcoholic content. It’s fun to socialize in the evenings (I really like it myself), but remember that you need to still be able to participate the next day. You are responsible for your personal consumption.
Remember to clean your muskets and keep them in good working order. If you need lessons, just ask an NCO (Dwight, Abe, Adam or myself.) If you have trouble with your musket working properly, see Carl Hutchinson, Steven Taskovics or Captain Rock.
Your Humble Servant,
Sgt Will Hutchinson
