    No doubt! This will be a great event on pristine ground, by top notch planners.But with that said heed their words on the terrain, this will NOT be one you can't just show up for unprepared. Get your stairmaster dusted off and ready!

    Gents,

    I just wanted to post a quick news blurb for THE campaigner event for the 150th Atlanta Campaign in 2014. We are working on setting up a little "something" for those of you who like to arrive earlier than most at events. Look here for more information soon. Also, we'll have more news about kit guidelines (they won't change much from the already well researched park guidelines), commanders, and group invites. Thanks all, and have a great Christmas!

    The Skunk Ape will find you at the Mill.

    Let me know if you need some place to crash if you are from out-of-town and attending this event. I can offer some room (to the first that call it) at my house since we live about 40mins away from the site. Hope it helps get more people to the event.
