Reenactment Gear

[RugerNo1]

I stay away from the politics and don't have contact info for other units but, go to Howitzers.com and contact Ed. He's in the contacts. Tell him who you are and that I pointed you to him. He'll be able to find someone or point you in the right direction to find someone. Just make sure your school is OK with bringing "weapons" onto campus or, let anyone coming know that they can't even bring the knife in their mess kit. I would hate to see a volunteer end up in trouble when he is just trying to help educate our future.

Thanks CSA,

I'm up in Taft, but I am sure "weapons" would definitely be out of the picture considering the event earlier this year at the high school.

I think it would be really cool to have a "camp site" set up for the kids to check out and ask questions.

Edit:

Most Rev War guys I know end up getting their uniform items hand sewn by others in the hobby. If you end up interested in the War of Northern Aggression, come down to Moorpark in Nov. There will be plenty of sutlers who would love to take your money. If you come down, I'll hook you up with a couple rev war guys who will be there fighting for the state's rights that they fought for in the 1770's.

We cover the Yankee Invasion after Christmas, but I may personally check out this event in Moorpark. Do you have a link?

I highly recommend trying to watch the evening battle on Saturday.
That is coolest battle to watch.

There are organizations that host War of Northern Aggression events.
Here a few that I know of.

Those are the 2 that I know of that do The Second war for Independence events.
Also most units if you ask are more then happy to help spread the word that a teacher is looking for re-enactors to assist in a living history at a school.

As already mentioned;
Make it clear about the weapons, most of the re-enactors I know enjoy teaching about the firearms.

Yep, RH. I joined in '98. I'm bad with names and don't remember a Jake Bailey. Now, I'm semi retired from reenacting and only do one or two events a year.
