It was my honor and pleasure to present Mi-copperhead with the Green Hat after successfully completing his SBIT3 last weekend at Fenton, MI.

Earl displayed all the necessary traits of an effective Shoot Boss - leadership, temperance, focus on safety, decisiveness and calmness. 

He has also recently stepped up to take over as the Michigan State Coordinator, so he's grabbing a bigger bucket with both hands!!

Please join me in congratulating MI-copperhead!

But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?" -- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

During the seventy years which elapsed between the overthrow of the Stuart dynasty and the victory of Wolfe on the Heights of Abraham, the relations between the American colonies and the British government were, on the whole, peaceful; and the history of the colonies, except for the great and romantic struggle with New France, would have been almost destitute of striking incidents. In view of the perpetual menace from France, it was clearly unwise for the British government to irritate the colonies, or do anything to weaken their loyalty; and they were accordingly left very much to themselves. Still, they were not likely to be treated with any great liberality,â€"for such was not then, as it is hardly even yet, the way of governments...

Fantastic!! Congratulations, Copperhead!  Sorry I'm late to this thread, just getting back from New York and catching up on all the news here. You look good in green, buddy!
