I suppose it's time for me to get up on the soapbox, which I seem to do following each Sanford event. Chris Dunlap always is more diplomatic than I when it comes to youth participation, but I tend to be a little more straightforward. Face it---if it wasn't for a few members who bring their youngsters and one member in particular who, unsolicited, furnished awards for youth participation this year, we wouldn't have ANY youth enthusiasm and participation at the Southern! I've been an attendee every year since 2005, and I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of youths who have participated, namely Paxton and Lucy Candler, Will Dunlap, John Britton, and Alyssa Liles (sorry if my memory has failed me). Frankly, I find this inexcusable, and shortsightedness on the part of the membership. If we, as members, expect to perpetuate interest in double guns generally and the L C Smith legacy specifically, we need to make a more sincere effort involving the youths in our family.
