Many are asking about what we, as fed up Mississippians, are going to do in response to the legislature’s votes from the weekend. Without getting into much detail- because we are still very early in the process- the best way to proceed in letting our voice be heard is with the referendum process. There will be more information coming in the following weeks!
People keep asking “What can I do to help?” Right now, while we are getting the specifics ironed out, the biggest help would be to make sure everyone you know is registered to vote. When the initiative process gets started and we are in full signature collection mode, the signatures have to be from REGISTERED VOTERS. Let’s use this time to get everyone registered! If you are a registered voter and you want to volunteer, please email us at: [email protected] Be sure to include your name, phone number and the county where you are registered to vote! We know that things happen in life that might keep you from being able to register to vote. That's ok! You can also email us at the email above because we will still need your help! Your voice still needs to be heard! AmazonSmile customers can now support the Rankin Greys Camp 2278 in the Amazon shopping app on iOS and Android mobile phones!

Due to the COVID-19 situation, we have had to adapt. April and May meetings were held via Zoom meetings.
April saw elections come around. We have a new slate of officers. Click HERE
May we had Army of Tennessee Commander Jason Boshers join us and speak. The meeting was casual as was the April meeting. We look forward to getting back to Los Cazadores as restrictions ease up.
Watch the Facebook pages for updates of upcoming meetings.

Another great meeting in the books. We had some new faces in the crowd and some old familiar faces back to fellowship. Al Arnold spoke to us about his current book, and some tidbits about his upcoming book. We welcomed Jonathan Weeks into the camp with his new certificate, and he will be joining the Mechanized Cavalry. Glen Hays received a unanimous vote to be a new member. Bruce Warren received the Last Role Resolution for Bobby Joe on behalf of Ms Wendy Sue. We also celebrated the recent birthday of one of our charter members Donovan Vanek.
