Well Wagions fall fellowship is now in the Books. What a great weekend both weather and participation. We had around 300 attend counting 62 new Ordeals. WE also had 39 Brothers seal their membership with doing their Brotherhood and 14 Brothers were Chosen for the Vigil Honor. The Activities committee had midnight maddness both Friday night and ON Saturday Night after Ceremonies and Snack. Actually Satirday Night was more Like Not starting until midnight instead of be over at Midnight. It was 1:30 by the Time I got in my tent as I sponsored a New Vigil and we go out with the to their Vigil Place. We all met at 5:30 am and had the actual Vigil Ceremony followed by our Fall Vigil Breakfast (steak,potaoes and French toast) Followed by our annual rededication ceremony. WIth all the fun and ceremonies there was still alot of cheerful service performed by our members and the new Ordeal. This weekend had a special signifiance for myself as it was my 45th anniversary since my Ordeal. AS usual I look forward to the October weekend. Carry on Wagion!!!!
