period of (12) twelve months.
For this award, Brother Jame R. Johnson recruited (8) eight new members into our Order, and the Ruger Camp----- four under the age of (40) forty and include (2) Junior members.
During the meeting, another member under the age of (40) forty & recruited by Brother Johnson has been added to the Sons and Ruger Camp membership rolls.
I don’t believe that the importance of recruiting younger members can ever be overstated as they represent the future of our Order, and recruiting family members lets them share and learn the history and heritage of our Union Civil War soldiers and sailors.
