Hello to all SEPN Georgia Members and Georgia Region 6 Members!
Hoping you all are doing well and getting all your “preps” in order for 2024!!!—sure appears that 2024 is shaping up to to be an “ very interesting” year to say the least!!--- PLEASE BE SAFE!! ---and BE READY!!
We here in Region 6 got 2024 off “on the right foot” with our January presentation:
THINK GRID DOWN: “MUST HAVE Hand Tools and Equipment For Your Home / BOL During a Total Grid Down Situation”
We went into great depths and at length about certain areas of what to do in grid-down scenarios --and other related topics. I quickly realized that I am not as prepared as I thought I was in those areas--as well as some other members present there as well! GREAT lessons learned!!
My hat is off to all who offered their advice and insight!!-- Thanks go out to all!!
GREAT participation from all when the floor was open to discussion and many EXCELLENT ideas and topics discussed at length! GOT LOTS of GREAT “food for thought” concerning GRID-DOWN scenarios!!
One idea mentioned was to do a “seed swap” session at our February meeting and we have decided to incorporate that into our February meeting time!
As I have mentioned in past posts before--we as so very BLESSED to have such GREAT members here in the SEPN Georgia Region 6 area—ALL of which who are a “wealth of knowledge” and “true experts” on many numerous preparedness topics!
We also have been TRULY BLESSED to have such a wonderful place in “Uncle Sam’s Surplus” to hold our monthly Region 6 meetings in the past --and for 2024!
Mike Newsome, the USS manager in 2023, is no longer in position of manager there --but Alex--the owner of USS, Shelby--the NEW manager of USS, and Nick-- who is lead sales representative there, and ALL of the USS floor crew there have expressed continued 100% support of USS to us in 2024!!
These folks have always been EXCELLENT SUPPORT in the past to our SEPN Georgia Region 6 meetings and to us members and have ALWAYS assisted us in our “meeting needs” for any equipment or class presentation items for our use! They are # 1 in customer service!!
Thanks again so much to Alex, Shelby and Nick, and all the USS crew for your continued support to us for our monthly meetings in the past and going forward into 2024!
I would like to take the time now to personally THANK-YOU ALL who came and supported us with your attendance and participation with our monthly meetings in 2023 and looking forward to meeting, learning, and participating with you all in 2024! --Our numbers are growing!!
As I have said in past postings and at numerous past meetings --It’s not me--it's YOU ALL who make it all happen for us!! ---and for that I and my wife are most grateful!!
We both feel GREATLY blessed to know each and every one of you and greatly appreciate your willingness to share needed knowledge, experiences, and advice! May God Bless You All!
In keeping along the line of the “seed swap” session in February, the coming spring planting season,-- and keeping in the mindset of” THINK GRID-DOWN” we should address and discuss the topic of “GRID DOWN” gardening” in much more detail.
Take care all and God Bless! ---See you all in February!!
