We are going to welcome all to Yankton on Thursday the 11th in the meeting room on 2nd floor. Hopefully we can get 10 rooms then we get the meeting room free or it will cost $25.00 per day.
Friday the 12th you are on your own part of the day. Or if you are interested in going to a museum. They give a guided tour for $5.00 per person or $5.00 per person if you want to walk threw your self. Friday evening we are planning on a meal together out at our son's camp ground. Where we can set around the campfire and get to know what everyone has been up to for the last year.
Saturday morning we will need to have our meeting and then out north of Mission Hill to watch a group of guys and gals do a rendezvous. They will all be dressed in the area. And do some black powder shooting at targets and pair up to do a trappers walk. If we have time they will help all that want to shoot try to hit some fun shooting.
Then we will go out to our sons. The guys and gals will do some Dutch oven cooking for us all. Everyone can hang out around the camp fire. The meals are at a cost of $6.00 to $11.00 per person thanks to all. Hoping to see a big crowd.
