Summer Break

Last night, my UDC chapter, Varina Howell Davis #2559, met for the last time until next September. We went through a long list of items that will hopefully qualify us for awards at the upcoming national convention.

I don’t know if it is normal procedure to take the summer off, since I’m new to being in the United Daughters of the Confederacy, and new to the south as well. There are still a few events slated to take place this summer, including a birthday celebration for Nathan Bedford Forrest at the Memphis park named in his honor. This event is sponsored by the Nathan Bedford Forrest UDC.

Needless to say, I hope everyone has a fun-filled summer full of adventure and happiness. I also hope to see some of you over the course of the summer. See y’all in September!
