THE CANNONEER:
Our newsletter is published every other month unless there is a reason for supplimetal issues.
THE COPY BELOW IS A SAMPLE FROM LAST YEAR
The 24-25 November meeting is a MAX EFFORT training camp at John’s Farm. We can arrive Saturday afternoon, setting camp and will train on Sunday for certifying at Goldsboro. There will be a fish fry on Sat night around 5:00pm. As usual the families are invited and we will have burgers and dogs for those who don’t like fish. Bring ice and your own beverage, remembering that we will be firing on Sunday. We are buying the fish so we need to know as soon as possible who is and is not coming. We will ante up to pay for the fish when we get there.
Getting there: Take Hwy 421north Turn left onto Shiloh Rd by the big brick church. After crossing a bridge and going up a hill, and around a very sharp curve. Turn left onto Tuckahoe Rd, go down this road, cross another bridge and go around a curve just past the bridge and at the top of the small rise is a dirt road leading into the woods. Turn left onto this dirt road/path and you'll wind up at the farm-providing the cable at the creek is unlocked!
Just in case you can’t get enough of it. Make your own: Old Fashioned Fry Bread
4 cups flour
2 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup warm water
Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually add in the shortening and water. Add only enough water to make dough stick together. Knead dough until smooth, make into fist-sized balls. Cover them with a towel for 10 minutes then pat them out into circles about the size of a pancake. Fry in hot cooking oil in cast iron skillet until brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels, serve with jam.
Our next event is Goldsboro Bridge December 1-2, 2007. This is also maximum effort and the sooner we know who is going the better we can plan. We will also be getting our certification cards with ANV at this event. http://www.goldsboroughbridge.com/
