The
Semple Camp held another splendid Lee/Jackson banquet Friday night, January 15th and four Dragoons plus three of their ladies attended. Rev. Michael Howell
delivered a presentation on a little known individual in the Charleston, SC area
who worked at converting black slaves to Christianity before and during The
War. He continued the work after they were freed. This was a very informative
and motivational program.
The
meal, which included rib eye steaks, was excellent and the evening was capped
off by drawings for some outstanding door prizes. The Semple Camp’s staff did a superb job of organizing and
executing this banquet and everyone enjoyed positive fellowship with Confederate compatriots.
One
other note, the flags that were at the Confederate Memorial Monument before
governor bentley ordered them removed are the property of the Semple Camp. These were on display at the banquet.
Pictured
below are the Dragoons and ladies who attended: Brent Jenks, George Jenks,
Melissa Jenks, Sue Spears, Larry Spears, Tyrone Crowley and Carol Crowley.
