The Colonel John S. Mosby Camp, Sons of Confederate Veterans, Camp 1237 Commander Bruce Colton presented a Thompson/Center 50 caliber muzzle-loading rifle to Blaine Keller of Kellers Insurance at 115 Water Street in Front Royal. Blaine was the winner of the annual fundraising raffle Camp 1237.

The Camp 1237 members make donations to various non-profits in Warren County. Most recently, a donation to C-CAP provides “safety net” services for those who need food, clothing, limited financial assistance, and help with finding other social services in Warren County. Also, donations to the Blue Ridge Heritage Project and Warren Rifles are just a few.

The John S. Mosby Camp, #1237, is a member camp of the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV). The SCV is an organization of male descendants of soldiers or sailors who served the Confederate States of America during the American Civil War. SCV membership is open to all male descendants aged 12 and over (lineal and collateral) of soldiers who fought for the Confederate States of America.

The John S. Mosby Camp, SCV, is dedicated to the preservation of the Confederate soldiers’ memory, their preservation of the local Confederate Soldier’s graves, historical re-enactments, scholarly publications, and regular meetings to discuss the military and political history of the War Between the States.
