UPDATE ON BUSINESS MEETING: Per the staff of the South Caroliniana Library, they do not have any a/v hookups and the acoustics of the room where we will be meeting make participation on Zoom essentially impossible. As such, we will not have a Zoom option for the business meeting. Instead, detailed minutes of the business meeting will be made available on Saturday, 19 July.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
We are so excited to see everyone in Columbia in a week and a half! Here is the schedule for our event:
Friday, 18 July:
4pm: Meet at the South Caroliniana Library
4:30pm-5:00pm: Presentation of selected Simms manuscript materials by South Caroliniana staff.
5:00pm-5:45pm: Brief papers on in-progress Simms research projects by Dr. Kevin Collins (SW Oklahoma State), Dr. David Newton (University of West Georgia), and Dr. Carey Roberts (Liberty University)
5:45pm-6:00pm: Discussion of presentations
6:00pm-6:45pm: Business meeting. Any Society member who is unable to attend in person and would like to request a Zoom link to participate virtually should email Secretary-Treasurer Matt Simmons.
After we finish the business meeting, we will stroll down the Historic Horseshoe to McCutcheon House for our evening meal, a bbq chicken and brisket buffet.
Conviviality and fellowship will follow!
Please let Secretary-Treasurer Simmons know if you have any concerns or questions!
