Every year as the Believers prepare for the Camp Meeting, we watch the Boy Scouts as they put a flag at each tombstone in the National Cemetery. While tomorrow we'll all come together to enjoy the company of friends and family, those who have given their lives and those have served are the reasons we are able to do this. Thank you!

Thank you

What else can I bring?
We're expecting a record crowd this year, so in addition to that side dish or dessert, please put a few lawn chairs in your car before heading to the Circle R.

Not allowed, either!
We've added cicadas to the "not allowed" list, but we unfortunately we think they'll show up anyway. Check out these items to help you get through the Cicada Invasion!

What is a "Whoop-De-Doo?"
If you read your invitation carefully (and we know you did!) you saw that this year's Camp Meeting also is a "Whoop-De-Doo," in honor of one of our new favorites. Don't get me wrong, we still gather around the television on Sunday nights to watch Elvis flicks while devouring peanut butter and banana sandwiches, but our latest viewing pleasure broadcasts Wednesday nights on FX -- Justified.
Justified follows Raylan Givens, excuse me, Deputy U.S. Marshall Raylan Givens as he battles his past in and fights for the future of Harlan County, Kentucky. He is both friend and enemy to those in the county -- the Bennetts, the Crowders, his ex-wife Winona, and others. In one season two episode, Mags, the matriarch of the Bennett family, throws a "Whoop-De-Doo." This event serves to rally her neighbors and friends against the menacing Black Pipe Mining Company that has plans to take control of her mountain. Thank you, but Mags has other plans.
We invite you -- our neighbors and friends -- to a "Whoop-De-Doo!" where, like in Harlan County, there will be plenty of baseball references and apple pie.

Invitations
Typically, the Believers mail invitations and update the blog right after Derby weekend. But things have been a little crazy this year. (Yes, crazy at the Circle R Ranch. Go figure.) However, invitations are out, so please call or email to record your pledge!
