UPDATE 08/23/2020
We had our final planning meeting yesterday and everything is shaping up to be a Great Muster. There have been a few small changes and the schedule reflects them. Due to social distancing we have moved a few of the presentaions outside to the Shiloh NMP. Everyone will receive mask and hand sanitizer (in order to meet state and federal requirements) along with ear plugs and safty googles for the weapons firing. ***NOTE: All side trips and planning for them with be posted in a separate Thread "Shiloh Side Trips” so as not to clog up the “Official” thread. We are looking at Iuka and of course Brice’s Crossroads and a few other spots.
