Default Share information....

Hi Charlie

could you share some info on the Sackett's harbour...Prescott event.....

I used to be part of the I.M.U.C. associated with Fort York back in the 80s....

....I might enjoy being on shore taking pot shots at passing forces..... I can be on either shore of the river depending which side you are fighting on...

In the 80s when we battled in Sacketts we fired only live rounds...... have you guys wussed up your shooting to blanks loads now ????

Charlie log on to the BSA WD M20 site that Grant posted a link too. Check out the restoration tips page, or post any enquiry on the forum and I promise you will get help. Ron

Default FandI, 1812 stuff.

[QUOTE=Bob Hi Charlie

(We were gonna deep fry a turkey, but couldn't find a pot big enough for an IMUC guy.... inside joke)

Two events here - Down the St L from around Malloryton on or about 13 July, followed by a few days in Prescott and the weekend in Ogdensburg.
Supposed to be the last significant FandI event for a few years. Join us for the sail if you can and wish, there should be room - min kit requirement.

Sacketts harbour is supposed to be on the same weekend as the Aug Holiday. Planned as a "grand tactical" and it looks like the State of NY is yanking support.

There's another handfull of events for us in the summer as well.

This is our boat, The FERRET.
