Corinth - Must Read!Steven Lundberg, Sun May 31 10:33am
Pards, I've just been informed that the Battle at Corinth has been cancelled this year. This is not a rumor. Unfortunately the situation with the land that was to be our battleground will not be available due to some changes in the property owner's needs. Steve
