E Clampus Vitus® is a non-profit, men's fraternal organization, currently involved in humanitarian and public help programs while maintaining a steadfast program of historical preservation. The history of E Clampus Vitus® involves an old organization of the same name, started in the Ol' West's gold rush era and revitalized about 1931 at the Clift Hotel in San Francisco and now encompassing Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, Washington DC, and in the near future, Washington and Oregon States.

The prime requisites to becoming a Clamper are a sense of humor, an interest in Western history, an open mind, and a cast iron stomach. If a man has those qualities, and strikes up a friendship with a Clamper or two, he may find himself taken in to (and by) the Ancient and Honorable Order. But one can't simply walk up and say, "Can I be a Clamper?" It is for the Brethren of ECV® to invite prospective members to join. And if a man is asked, he should know that the invitation is only given once. If it is refused, it is never tendered again. But a man of any intelligence and character so invited would hardly be likely to turn down such a signal honor. And remember, as the Brethren of E Clampus Vitus® maintain, Clampers are not made, they're born. Like gold, they just have to be discovered.

Welcome to the Squibob Saloon.... Please vist often, this site is upadated regularly on Chapter Events and news... See all you brothers at the Star Ranch April 18-20! ~ Webmaster DJ David

ECV^® Grand Council Guidelines
NOW POSTED

Brothers of Squibob Chapter-ECV^®,

Please take a moment to read, review, memorize and implement the following Official ECV^® Grand Council Guidelines. The John P. Squibob Chapter of ECV^® is most serious about the adherence to Grand Council Guidelines regarding the treatment of PBCs during their initiation weekend.

Greybeards Approve Purchase of
Automatic External Defibrillator

The Greybeards of John P. Squibob Chapter, during a meeting held on October 20 at the Fall 2007/6012 Clampout, approved the purchase of an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED). A presentation was made by Squibob brother Ed Gallego, during which the features and function of the device were demonstrated. After some discussion, is was recognized that a number of Squibob brothers have experienced cardiac issues in the past (though not necessarily during chapter events) and that having such a device could make a difference in saving a life.

The device being purchased is a Powerheart AED G3 Automatic, made by Cardiac Science. For more information on this device, please check out the following link to the manufacturers product information page: http://www.powerheart.com/products/phaed_g3auto.htm

The Greybeards have instructed Gold Dust Receiver, Lary (“Baja Elroy”) Johnson, to make all arrangements for the purchase of and payment for the device.

Once purchased, the device will remain with the chapter medic bag between events and will be maintained by the same Squibob brothers that maintain the medic bag. By decision of the Greybeards, the Humbug will be responsible for having the AED available and ready at each Squibob event – parade, meeting, Clampout, Widder’s ball, etc.

A very special SATISFACTORY goes out to the Greybeards for this extraordinary decision!
