This evening the CMM held our Annual Meeting for 2025 which was attended by 21 people including one new member, three prospective members, and four DAR members. Compatriot Doug Schwetke, who lives in Fort Worth, TX, joined us by Zoom. We normally install newly elected officers at the annual meeting, but since we have started two year terms there were no new officers to install this year; however there will be next year, let us know if you would like to run for office for 2026-2028.
We did induct a new member, Jason L. Quintern, Ph.D. He was joined by his family for the ceremony. Jason recently received a Doctorate in Bible Exposition. We are very pleased to welcome Jason and his family as fellow patriots.
We were also especially blessed with an excellent presentation on Religion in the American Revolution by Pastor Dan Carlton of Culpeper Baptist Church. His church was formed in 1774 and its members played a prominent roll in our struggle of independence. The CMM presented Pastor Carlton with a Certificate of Appreciation, an America 250 lapel pin, and a modest honorarium for his presentation.
Among significant decisions reached in the business session during the meeting were:
Also of note was the excellent support from Pepper's Grill for our dinner, especially from our dedicated waitress, Diamond.
