Dear Friends:
Our fund raising pamphlet to whet your interest in the surrender ceremonies, CSS Shenandoah to HMS Donegal, to finally end hostilities in Liverpool is available. This promises to be an extraordinary event along with a stone marker to commemorate the event Nov 1865-Nov 2015. Our two camps designed a European Medal of Honor, our continuing Camp project, and this will be present to Captain Waddell in one of the two services that will be held. The Captain John Low’s member, Bob Jones has put together an informative “Civil War” trail in Liverpool and should you come to Liverpool it is a must see but allow extra time, you won’t be disappointed. Bob covers the Confederate efforts of one, Captain James D. Bulloch there and his extraordinary exploits for the CSN. We are asking for a $12.00 donation for the pamphlet, but we will be pleased to mail you one for free. Now, men and ladies, don’t go crazy on the freebies, LOL! LOL! A very nice “Post Card” of the CSS Shenandoah will accompany any paid request. Quantities are limited on the Post Card It’s slogan: “Last Confederate Combatant to Strike the Colors Nov 1865.” And of course a picture of Shenandoah. Seriously, Lt. CIC Barrow, contacted us to see if we were interested doing the Event and after many fact finding few months, the CSS Shenandoah and its officers and crew will be honored. BUT, we can’t do it without your ASSISTANCE.A similar announcement will be in the next Confederate Veteran. Here’s hoping you enjoy the booklet and you have time to plan attending in Liverpool if your interest is so aroused. We are also looking for CSS Shenandoah re-enactors Confederately. CSS Shenandoah’s Event Custodians The officers and members of the: Captain John Low, CSN Camp 2161 Scarborough, England Clyde River Blockade Runners Camp 2168 Bridge of Allan, Scotland Check can be made out to the newly sanctioned checking account through my Henrico County Court Clerk’s office: Address— Contact:

Dear SHAPE:
As the responses from our email run on Southern Heritage News and Views email forum for the pamphlet and post card was a success, we have no pamphlets left, so the offer is withdrawn. The Event Committee will decide later this summer if there is enough interest to do a Second Printing. This CSS Shenandoah Event in Liverpool, England will echo across all continents as probably the best Event of the Sesquicentennial Whoever coined the phrase “the South shall rise again”? For SURE! Confederately, CSS Shenadoah Events Committee |
