25 Aug 2015 Pepper's Grill, Culpeper VA
A special meeting of the CMM Board of Managers was convened on August 25th at Pepper's Grill in Culpeper. Attending were past President Jim Bayne, Chaplain Len Cowherd, past President Jerry Hubbard, Color Guard Commander Lon Lacey, and President Bill Schwetke. The BoM voted to accept the proposal of Culpeper CIty Councilman Jon Russell to sponsor a specialty license plate honoring the 1775 Culpeper Minutmen. We also voted to conduct a ceremony honoring the 240th Anniversary of the Muster of the Culpepr Minutmen in Yowell Meadow Park on Thursday, September 17th, at 6pm. At that ceremony we will present a replica of the 1775 Culpeper Minutemen Battle Flag to the Eastern View High School JROTC Honor Guard, and we voted to make the same offer to the Culpeper High School JROTC Honor Guard.
Other business included the discussion of the preservation of a specific Revolutionary War soldier's grave, that may be the victim of neglect or worse. That issue is waiting on other events before it would be appropriate for us to take any action.
Past President Jim Bayne brought up another Revolutionary War soldier's grave that he thought suitable for marking. That will be explored in the near future.
