For those who plan to camp, the chapter will host a Friday night Cracker Barrel. Please join Chapter Members at campsite 28 for hot cider around a campfire.  Please bring a chair and a munchie to share.  It may be cooked in the Dutch oven or store bought.  The Cracker Barrel will be held from 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm.  

On Saturday we will hold Dutch oven cooking classes that will include: Everything you want to know about Sourdough taught by Bruce Crabtree and a basic class taught by none other than Cuzin Roy Powell and his sidekick Mike Walker. We will also host a DOG (Dutch Oven Gathering), a Dutch oven dessert cook off, an opportunity drawing and an annual membership meeting.
