SLRC Weekly Update
Dear Heritage Defenders:
I hope that everyone has had a wonderful week. We do have a bit of
good news to report and I will get straight to it!
Castorina Fall-Out Continues
Logan County schools in Kentucky will possibly be added to the
growing list of bloodless victories because of the favorable Castorina
ruling. Let me give you a bit of background information. Some time
ago a student was tragically killed that was a current student at Logan
County schools. The young student frequently wore Confederate flag
shirts. To honor this student's memory, many students decided to
wear Confederate flag shirts to school. Logan County school officials
told students they were not to wear any more Confederate symbols. SCV
members, Don Shelton and Fred Wilhite have been vigorously working to
ensure that Castorina is enforced in Logan County. We are proud to
announce that a verbal agreement has been reached to allow shirts back
in and we are currently working on a written agreement. We will keep you
posted as details unfold.
SCV National Convention Activities
I would also like to remind you to come to our booth at the SCV
National Reunion in Asheville. We look forwarding to seeing some
of you again and others for the first time! Also plan to attend
our Continuing Legal Education Seminar on Thursday, July 31st from
3:00-5:00. The NC Bar Association has accredited the course for
attorneys but of course, the seminar is open to EVERYONE. There will
also be a breakfast honoring HK Edgerton's March Across Dixie. If
you haven't had a chance to meet HK, this would be a wonderful
opportunity! WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU THERE!
