SUMMARY:Rev. John Andrew NSDAR - Downtown Bell Ringing in Watkinsville\, GA
DESCRIPTION:Constitution Day – Bell Ringing and Musket Salute \nThe Rev. John Andrew Chapter NSDAR will have a DOWNTOWN BELL RINGING on Tuesday the 17th in Watkinsville\, GA \nThe SAR might be willing to fire a musket salute at exactly 4 p.m. \nI am working at our exact location but   would love to have a “Town Crier” start a short program at 3:45 reminding attendees as to what was going on in the minutes leading up to the 4 p.m. signing.  We will have DAR and JAC on site as well\, but I thought that the SAR could really make this event shine. \n
