Each year the camp’s General Grant Committee solicits “Memorials and Boosters” from our members and from organizations to help us defray the cost of a wreath, ribbons and printed programs. “Memorials” honor our Civil War ancestors or deceased brothers. “Boosters” allow organizations to demonstrate their support of the Annual Commemoration of having their name and address appear in the printed program.

Find attached our Grant Memorial/Booster form.
Your financial support of this effort is very much appreciated.
