Greetings to all FCF Members,
I pray that everyone is well and good. The big year 2012 has arrived with lots to do before the coming of Jesus Christ, so let’s get to it.
The Frontier Adventure and Spring Trace will soon be upon us. The Frontier Adventure and Trace is going to be held on April 20th - 22nd at Camp Adventure. All applications are due in by the 15th of March with the $30.00 fee. You can download them off our web site, indiannationfcf.com. Send your Frontier Adventure applications to “Wopuscat”, the Buckskin applications to “No Fun Mouse Hawk”, and the Wilderness applications Mouse Hawk or myself. We will be sending paperwork back to you so get the applications in ASAP.
We will be having a Young Buck Seneca Run again this year at the Spring Trace. All Young Bucks that are already in FCF must compete before noon unless you are working the Frontier Adventure, then you will be able to compete in the afternoon with the new Frontiersman. All of the new Frontiersman can take an Old Timer with them to compete in the Seneca Run as an adviser only and to load the smoke pole. There will be a 1st, 2nd, & 3rd place prizes. 1st place will receive a black powder rifle with a shooters pouch and powder horn, 2nd placed will receive a hunter’s knife with a sheath, 3rd place is yet to be determined. If you have something to donate to make these prizes even greater, please give me a call with that information.
At noon on Saturday we will start the Spring Trace after the Frontier Adventure and will conclude Sunday with a morning Sunrise Service. The cost of the Trace will be $20.00 to all that come to camp, including myself. A $10.00 trade item will be needed to participate in the Spring Trace events.
I have served as your President for the past 6 years and felt that I have done my best to live by our motto. God had led me in a direction that requires a lot of time and energy. You may of heard, I am a Pastor of a Cowboy Fellowship. I have been under an attack for about the past three years concerning my health. I have been diagnosed with Parkinson disease and beginning to have some difficulty in movement. It is especially difficult during the duration of the activities of campouts and events of FCF. Because of this, Jim 'Mouse Hawk' Stratton has been appointed by Commander Marvin Lemke to take over the reigns at this years Pow-wow. However, he will be working close with me to learn what he needs to know as president and to help me finish out my 3rd term as your president. Let’s get behind Mouse Hawk with our full support and offer our services as he puts together his staff. As of Pow-wow this year, all that is on my staff will need to be selected and approved by Mouse Hawk. If you want to serve on the Indian Nation FCF staff, contact Mouse Hawk directly at (Jim Stratton) james-stratton@sbcglobal.net
We are starting to put together the staff for the Frontier Adventure. You can download an events list in the link below that shows what all of the positions that are needed and most of the positions are open at this time. We will be calling you to help fill each open spot and/or as an assistant. If you see an open position that you would like to do, give me a call. In the event you are a Frontiersmen and want to advance to Buckskin or has a Young Buck that needs it, give me or Mouse Hawk a call and we will find a spot, we need all the help we can get. Let’s make this the best one of all, bigger and better, a place where we all can get closer to God.
All checks needs to be made out to:
