Prattville Dragoons Camp 1524 Commander and Adjutant Attend Division EC Meeting

The Alabama Division Executive Committee held their annual meeting with the camp officers in Montgomery on Saturday February 10th in Montgomery.  Adjutant Lee Hattabaugh called a quorum and  presented the past meeting minutes which were approved. Treasurer Larry Muse presented the budget and current status.  Dragoons Commander Waldo noted that Camp 1524 will take advantage of the advertising initiatives thru more electronic billboard advertising, Google adwords, and perhaps ads for the March Division Education Conference.  Isaac Brownlow was introduced as the new Division JROTC Hunley award.  The Dragoons will be expanding their presentation of these terrific awards to a third area high school this spring.  A new Division camp was chartered and that charter document signed by new Camp 455 Bibb Rifles members and Brigade Commander Mike McMurry.  Latest news on Heritage Defense efforts in Alabama and Tennessee were discussed and other announcements were made by Commander Jimmy Hill.  A delicious dinner of BBQ pork and chicken with beans, slaw and potato salad was enjoyed by all the attendees.  After lunch, a training presentation was provided on the SCV's new SalesForce membership portal.  This tool will provide a means for maintaining rosters, facilitating internal communications and donation campaigns.  Members and camp officers will be able to revise personal data.  Improvements to the site will be continually made including online membership renewal payments.  Discussion groups can be established to include individuals, camps, the Division or national groups in public or private threads.  This was an enjoyable informative event for the Division SCV compatriots.
