Dear officers, members and friends of Tilden Camp:

Many officers and members from organizations of the Allied Orders of the Grand Army of the Republic will be in attendance along with historical and patriotic organizations. New members will be initiated during the ceremony.

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.

Yours in,Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty,George J. Weinmann, (Commander) CaptainCo. I, 83rd New York Vol. (9th NYSM), SVRCommander Oliver Tilden Camp #26, SUVCW Past NY Department Commander Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War1 Centre Street, 22nd Floor, Suite 2208New York, NY 10007
