You wont find it, if you do not seek it. June 9th Wed 6:00pm

Marchers,
If you are wondering where the Orientation Meeting will be, do not worry your pretty little head about it, I have the answer. The meeting will be at Pitts Road Park, off of Pitts Road, near the Pecan Grove Subdivision. The time will be at 6:00pm, and plan on bringing you pack, gear, and registration forms for the March. Any and all people are welcome, including parents, but most importantly, we want our Marchers there to gain an understanding of what is going on, and what they need to do.

Things YOU need to buy and pack: hiking socks without cotton, a whistle- stay right there and blow if lost, a compass, a hat, long sleeve shirts, long pants- poison ivy, bugs, etc.., something for blisters- you will get blisters, something to sleep on, water shoes, and a willing, determined attitude.

Thing WE will provide: water, food, sun screen, and a plan of attack.

Things Mother-nature will provide: chiggers, ticks, mosquitoes, snakes, spiders, creeks, heat, humidity, and maybe rain.

For those that do not read this blog, you other Marchers pass the word onto them. Tell them to seek out this web site, because if they do not seek it, they will not find it, and they will not know what to bring. Some Marchers may be dropped off and left by their parents, but if the Marchers do not have their equipment or forms, they may have to wait there to be picked up again. We will be on the march, and we will not have time to wait for those that do not have their essentials items.
