The Clamper Creed:

As I pass through life, may I always be humble;
may I never take myself seriously;
may I always appreciate a little of the ridiculous;
may I always be a two-fisted Clamper when the bottle passes my way, and if I imbibe and can't hold it like a man, then may I always be able to pass it to the next brother;
may I never forget the stout-hearted men who settled a great western wilderness and the heritage we have today;
May I never fail to appreciate a bit of western lore.
