Presents at Lee - Jackson Dinner Hosted by Semple Camp
The Capt. Henry C. Semple Camp 2002 in Montgomery hosted
their annual banquet honoring two heroes of American and Confederate history,
Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson. The dinner was held on Friday,
January 19, 2018 (the 211th anniversary of General Lee’s birth), in the Annex
of the GracePointe Church of Christ. Dragoons Tyrone Crowley, George and Brent
Jenks, Dave Thompson, Harold Grooms and Karl Wade represented Camp 1524. After
a welcome by John Land and Invocation, the attendees enjoyed a delicious dinner
of beef tenderloin with wild rice and green beans and dessert. The keynote speaker was Bob McClendon
speaking on “Anna Jackson, A Most Remarkable Woman”. Dragoon Tyrone Crowley then provided his
memorable recitation of “Lee at Jacksonville”. Door prizes and a Benediction brought the
enjoyable evening to a close.
