Brock – not sure if you got this and put the word out as I have to my lists. Hope to get them enough to handle all.

Subject: Update & Camp Changes

 
I would like to take the time to share an update on the local monument situation. On Friday, February 12 I signed the papers with the Mayor of Rocky Mount to take possession of the monument and 2 remaining statues. We now have 120 days to take possession or the agreement is null and void.

Currently the wet conditions have caused a delay but all the pieces are in place for this to be completed. We still need to raise funds to cover all the costs.

If you are able to help with this matter please send to:

Robert H. Ricks Camp 75

P.O. Box 781

Nashville NC 27856

Effective immediately I am resigning as Commander of Camp 75 but will remain a member and will oversee the monument project to completion.

This email address will now be handled by our new Commander,

Brandon Vickers.

Deo Vindice,

Craig Bone
