Be The One Mid-South Roundup

I'm going to be honest, we've had very little interest and will likely have to cancel if people don't register, volunteer or donate today. This could be a premier event every year that people from all over pilgrimiage to, but not if we don't step up now. This event will be canceled in a couple of weeks if this doesn't change.
