Mutual Support Groups (MSG's): A Local Idea

[longbow]

Fall is for BBQ!

How about the 19 or 20th of this month in my back yard! We will need some of you to bring a cooker or two. I have a few spots that would be ideal and if there is an interest we might just have a BBQ contest.

My location is as follows I'm about 10 miles west of Bloomington, or about 1 hour from 37 and 465 on the south west side of Indy.

If there is interest? should we make it a bigger MSG event?

OK, we've had a few people before but we never followed up. If your intersted, let me know, I'm building an email roster for notifications for some local trainings and gatherings in Hamilton County. I am going to be out of town for the next few weeks but then it's time to hunker down for the winter and get down to business.

I was going to schedule something during October as a first meeting point. Probably at the Cicero Library. This will just be a beginning intro to Preparedness and Introductions. Might combine a CPR class into it, not sure initially. Some subjects that I would like to have some trainings on:

Plant Identification
Building Fires
Natural Healing Techniques
CPR
First Aid
Food Storage
Canning
Primitive Weapons
Firearms
Gardening
Soap Making
Candle Making

Just to name a few. Not sure which zone this technically is in. I know there was some confusion. But Looking to move forward whether its 2 of us or 10 of us. Please send me your email. I am on this board alot but it will be easier to send out one bulk email on updates but I will try and keep things posted here to. You can also check out the following for Hamilton County Specific Info. If there turns out to be a good group and following, maybe we can talk INGO into a special tab to keep all the talk here. Would be easier than following two links.

Anyways, here is the starting point for myself. If your interested let me know, if not, keep on prepping and God Bless.....

Hey Region Rats - I'm new to the forum but you can count me in. I just finished reading "Patriots" by J. Rawles. I highly recommend this book as it will light a fire under your butt to start getting prepared. The signs are out there - "if you can read". I'm in Portage and always open to getting together for some lead slingin down at JP.

You just made me curious, so I read the synopsis on this book. This sounds like something that would be right up my alley. I may have to pick this one up after I finish Atlas Shrugged.

I live in lapel, and I want in. Who do I talk to? This sounds great!

Reading it as I'm typing right now. Awesome book, except it would take many thousands of dollars to do what they did to prepare. The guns and ammo alone would be well over 5 figures - not to mention the car supplies, food, solar power, well backup, fuel, and fuel storage, combat gear, clothing, tools, and on and on.

Lots of ideas and strategy there though- been a great book so far.
