The 2009 Campaign to Charleston was a fantastic success! In spite of earlier fears, the hotel was quite comfortable… with an extremely hospitable and helpful staff. The food was good; the fellowship was great (as usual!); and Charleston was a delightful experience!
Many campaigners said that it was one of the very best of all the seminars; no one expressed the least disappointment. The only “downside” was the absence of some of our friends — some called to their Final Muster; some unable to attend for personal reasons. All were missed.
Now, we will begin the task of locating a suitable hotel in the area of Antietam / Sharpsburg for June 2010. I will be working with Donna Raines and Bill Trimble to this end. When we have a hotel contract, we will inform you so that you can begin making your plans to attend. In the meantime, talk it up with your friends and family, and at your Civil War Roundtables. Let’s make 2010 even better than 2009!
Brochures will be provided as soon as we can finalize hotel plans. This will help you to better “sell” your friends on joining “Bud’s Brigade,” the best bunch of people who ever loved the Blue & Gray.
