Washington Birthday Celebration

From Don Peck:

I will be speaking at the Annual Meeting of the Washington Camp Ground Association on Tuesday, February 22, 2011 at 7 PM to be held at the Congregational Church, 209 Church Street, Bound Brook. My hope is that more groups will celebrate. George Washington service in New Jersey was invaluable in winning the war for independence!
