Crockett's Camp longhunter Society
« on: November 19, 2009, 01:11:33 PM »
I came from a meeting of the local history museum and came out with
enough members to start a local organization that I have dreamed of for some time. The Crockett's Camp Longhunter Society was born with a half dozen members right out of the gate! We decided that as our first project, we would try to help put together a display for the museum about Robert Crockett who was killed in our county about 1796.

WE would be glad to give you some sort of receipt
to acknowleged your contribution.

Sounds like a neat idea for a group, and very kind of you to provide a receipt, but unless you are incorporated as a 501(c)3 charitable organization [for education in your case ]  then the receipt is pointless, as it isn't deductable unless you are such..., and if it isn't deductible then there's no reason for the receipt.  You might want to hurry as the fees to file as such a group go up January 3rd, 2010.  

Are you folks open to additional members and if so how does one go about getting information?

Thanks Dave. I know about all the legal mumbo jumbo. My reason for the receipt would be just to let you know that we are on the up and up and honestly wanting to do a good deed for history. Truthfully we are brand new and probably will be a small group. We won't be soliciting any monies just trying to put together a museum exhibit in the county where Crockett died.

Well we had a meeting this morning at the history museum. We are dedicated to a display but we may go a different direction. Main thing is Crockett will be remembered in our community!

We had our first woodswalk here at my place Saturday. What a great time. Fun shooting, good campfire food, and great fellowship! Pictures on our Crocketts Camp Facebook page.

Looked the pictures up.  Very cool faithtreker.

By the way, you and I have met.  You came to the Indiana Bowhunter Association's rendezvous/3D shoot in Farmland, IN years ago and sang for us.  Met ya there and had a great time listening to your music.  Hope you're doing well.
