*** BECOME A LEE-JACKSON DAY SPONSOR ***

The Stonewall Brigade - Camp #1296 Lexington, Virginia presents Lee-Jackson Day 2027. This will be the 28th year of this annual event in Lexington.

The event includes a symposium on Friday, with at least 3 speakers. On Saturday, we start with a service at Stonewall Jackson's graveside. We then have a parade leaving Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery, through downtown Lexington. At the conclusion of the parade, we have a service for Lee, followed by a key note speaker, & luncheon.

This event costs money to put on, just like everything else we do for our shared causes. This year we are once again printing Lee-Jackson Day T-shirts. The front of the shirt will have the logo pictured. The back of the shirt is going to be reserved for sponsors. We will be putting business card sized ads for sponsors that make a $250 donation. Each sponsor will also receive 1 shirt, & be named in the official program distributed the day of the event.
This years shirts are going to be short sleeve shirts. We have the option this year for two of our most generous sponsors to have their name/slogan/ad on a sleeve of the shirt. We're asking a donation of $500 for a sleeve ad.

We'd like to have the shirts to the printer by Halloween, so we can get them to everybody, & make them available to the public. Thanks for your consideration, & please help us make this years celebration, one to remember.

If interested in becoming a Lee Jackson Day sponsor, either private message this page, or email us at: [email protected]

Previous sponsors have priority, so don't procrastinate, get your sponsorship reserved right away..!

Members of the SCV Mechanized Cavalry met at Cooters in Luray today for the memorial cruise/ride in honor of actor and statesman Ben Jones. Ben has been a friend of the Stonewall Brigade for many years going back to when he was Chief of Heritage Defense for the Sons of Confederate Veterans. He twice came to support our efforts in Lexington including our rally against W&L stripping Lee Chapel of its history and he also spoke at Lee-Jackson Day in 2015. In recent years Ben was a donor to Lee-Jackson Memorial Park and wrote a ringing endorsement of our efforts there which you will find on the park's website at leejacksonpark.com. Also watch Ben's address at Lee-Jackson Day 2015 here https://youtu.be/HpFMud_Ytg4?is=SVAX-iDFtQVNsKO5 (his remarks begin around the 23 minute mark).
