SUMMARY:Battle of Fort Blakely Reenactment
DESCRIPTION:2019 Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment\n\nRate This Event\n \nWitness the excitement of the Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment on April 6\, 2019 at Historic Blakeley State Park in Spanish Fort\, Alabama. To commemorate the anniversary of the Battle of Fort Blakeley\, we have an event-filled day of exciting tours\, informative educational programming\, and lively demonstrations planned. The Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment will be one of the largest reenactments of Alabama’s largest Civil War battle held in several years. The event will feature reenactments of the intense skirmishing which took place along the lines at Blakeley during the week-long siege of the fort in April of 1865 and the last grand charge of the Civil War which resulted in its capture will highlight the day’s events. \n\nBattle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment\nAlso included will be guided tours of the park’s battlefield\, weapons demonstrations\, and a special exhibit of artifacts associated with the fighting at Fort Blakeley. Souvenirs\, food\, and drinks may be purchased at the Wehle Center throughout the day. \nThe original and well-preserved battlefield will be the site of an authentic representation of conditions the 83rd Ohio Infantry and other Union troops experience before unseeding Confederate Brig. Gen. Francis Marion Cockrell’s defenders from four redoubts and other earthen fortifications. \nBefort the Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment\, it will be a living history encampment where both the federal troops and the Confederate troops will be working in the rifle pits and in the federal and Confederate works\, shoring up their shelters. Spectators will be shown some food demonstrations as well as digging in\, and there will probably some light skirmishes throughout the day as far as weapons demonstrations go. Starting at 10 a.m. and until about 3:30 p.m.\, the public will have an opportunity to tour the encampments\, see group demonstrations and talk to the individual soldiers. \nThe battle reenactment will cap off in the evening with a final assault that will be portraying the 83rd Ohio Regiment attacking Redoubt 4 and taking Redoubt 4\, which was manned by Cockrell’s Missouri Brigade. Then a federal flag will be planted in an approximately close area to where it happened in 1865. So the battle reenactment is going to be on the same field\, the same works and following as close as possible the actual flow of the battle. \nSaturday Hours: 8:00 AM-5:00 PM\nAdmission: $10 for adults; $5 for children 6-12\nMore Infomation: (251) 626-0798 or e-mail: BlakeleyPark@aol.com \nSaturday Schedule of Public Events (subject to change)\n8:00 AM Camps Open (Union and Confederate Lines)\n8:30 AM Artifact Exhibit Opens at Wehle Center\n9:00 AM-10:30 AM “Battles of Fort Blakeley and Spanish Fort” cruise\n9:00 AM-10:30 AM Weapons Demonstrations and Battlefield Tours\n11:00 AM-12:30 PM “Battles of Fort Blakeley and Spanish Fort” cruise\n11:00 AM Reenactment of a Confederate Sortie (attack from defenses)\n12:30 PM Lecture on Civil War artifacts at Wehle Center\n1:00 PM-2:30 PM Weapons Demonstrations and Battlefield Tours\n3:00 PM Reenactment of Assault on Fort Blakeley\n4:30 PM Camps Close (Union and Confederate Lines)\n4:30 PM Artifact Exhibit at Wehle Center Closes\nOn Saturday prior to the Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment of the final assault on Fort Blakeley in the afternoon we’ll also offer two special cruises along the Tensaw River focusing on the military actions here and at nearby Spanish Fort: \nBattle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment and Spanish Fort History Cruise \n9:00-10:30 AM and 11:00 AM-12:30 PM\nCruise Tickets: $27 for adults; $17 for children 6-12\n(includes complimentary admission to Reenactment events)\nFor reservations call 251-626-5581 \nJoin us on a historic voyage of discovery along the lower Delta’s scenic waterways as we explore the major battles of the Civil War’s “Mobile Campaign” from the rivers on which its major actions took place! Mobile was the last major city to remain in Southern hands during the war\, and Union army and navy forces converged on the area around Blakeley in the spring of 1865 in an attempt to capture the town. This narrated cruise will take guests alongside the Confederate strongholds of Spanish Fort and Fort Blakeley\, guardians of the approaches to Mobile and scene of some of the fiercest fighting during the war in Alabama. We will also visit the sites of Batteries Huger and Tracy\, both long lost key positions in the Confederacy’s defenses of Mobile\, and learn about the numerous Confederate and Union warships which vied for control of area waterways during the Civil War’s last major campaign. Learn more about Fort Blakeley – the Last Battle of the Civil War. \nMark your calendar today so you won’t miss the next Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment in Spanish Fort\, Alabama. \nTags: Battle of Fort Blakeley Reenactment\, Civil War Reenactment\, Fort Blakeley Civil War Reenactment \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events

SUMMARY:Battle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment
DESCRIPTION:2019 Battle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment\n\nRate This Event\n \nDon’t miss the excitement at the Battle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment on March 22-24\, 2019 at the Ralph V. Chisholm Park in Narcoossee\, Florida. The annual recreation of a Civil War battle\, The Battle of Narcoossee Mill is a great family activity that is both educational and entertaining. Visitors can roam through Civil War era camps\, talk with Union and Confederate reenactors\, watch the mounted cavalry of days past\, and relive the battle reenactment from the American Civil War. (This “particular” Battle really never occurred.) \n\nBattle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment\nThe park opens at 9:30 am and the battle begins promptly at 2:00 p.m. each day. Enjoy great BBQ\, music\, and homemade root beer while strolling through the authentic army camps. The reenactors camp out the entire weekend and live the historic events of the War of Narcoossee Mill. \nAdmission: $8.00 Adults\, $5.00 Children 5-12\, Children under 5 free \nLocation: Chisholm Park\, 4700 Chisholm Park Trail\, St Cloud\, FL 34771 \nFor More Information: email jacobsummerlin1516@gmail.com; call Camp Commander (407) 973-5857 \nFree parking\, close to the event \nVisit authentic Union and Confederate camps \nStroll “Sutler Row” with over 20 Sutlers\, Vendors\, and Historical Displays \nGet a great view of the battle from ample bleacher seating \nThe Battle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment is complete with mounted cavalry\, pyrotechnics\, and soldiers firing their muskets. If you are in the Saint Cloud Florida area the fourth weekend of March\, be sure to stop by and enjoy history on a 50 acre stage. \n[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”More about the event history”]\nDuring the Civil War\, this area played a unique role in aiding the Confederate Army in the South\, not as a battlefield\, but as a large supplier of beef for the Confederacy and the army. There was an actual unit called the Cattle Guard back then\, and it played a major role in the war. The role that Florida’s Osceola County could have played in the Civil War is what will come to life when two armies fight during the Annual Battle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment in Osceola County’s Ralph V. Chisholm Park in Narcoossee. \nThis event is organized by the Jacob Summerlin Camp\, named for the cattle baron who helped grow so much of the Central Florida economy in the 1800s. The Jacob Summerlin Camp\, a chapter of the Sons of Confederate Veterans\, is a civic group formed in Osceola County in 1991. The Battle at Narcoossee Mill Reenactment raises funds for the camp’s charitable work\, including scholarships\, veteran monuments\, grave markers\, cemetery maintenance\, and a Christmas charity program. \nIt’s not a reenactment of a historic battle\, but rather a depiction of how a conflict may have occurred during the war for Southern Independence on land that would become Osceola County after the war. There was not ever really a battle here\, so it is more an “enactment” of a scenario of how a battle could have taken place in that era\, in this area.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nEducation Day\nStudents and Chaperones: $5.00 Per Person Admission – Lunch Included\nMust be postmarked with payment in full by March 15th\, 2018 (Non-Refundable)\nRegister http://www.jacobsummerlin.org/edreg.htm \nSchedule of Events (subject to change\nFriday\n9:30 am – Education Day Tours Begin\nSaturday\n07:00 am – Reveille\n09:00 am – Colors (In Camp by Unit)\n09:30 am – Park opens to spectators\n10:00 am – Ladies’ Tea\n10:00 am till 1:00 pm Musket Demonstrations (next to BBQ tent)\n11:00 am – Officers’ Call\n12:30 pm – Cannon Demonstration (on battlefield in front of bleachers)\n01:00 pm – Music by “7 lbs of Bacon” string band\n01:00 pm – Camps Closed for Battle\n01:00 pm – Weapons and Authenticity Inspections\n02:00 pm – Battle Begins\n03:00 pm – Battle Ends – Camps Reopen\n07:30 pm – Artillery Night Fire at Dusk\n08:00 pm – Re-enactors Barn Dance\nSunday\n07:00 am – Reveille\n09:00 am – Colors (In Camp by Unit)\n09:30 am – Park opens to spectators\n10:00 am – Reenactors’ Church Service\n11:00 am – Officers’ Call\n11:00 am till 1:00 pm Musket Demonstrations (next to BBQ tent)\n12:30 pm – Cannon Demonstration (on battlefield in front of bleachers)\n01:00 pm – Music by “7 lbs of Bacon” string band\n01:00 pm – Camps Closed for Battle\n01:00 pm – Weapons and Authenticity Inspections\n02:00 pm – Battle Begins\n03:00 pm – Battle Ends – Camps Reopen\n05:30 pm – Camps Close \nOLD TIME BARN DANCE\nMosey on down to the large pavilion on Saturday night for the period Barn Dance.

These individuals were pursuing the dual and\, what they believed to be\, honorable causes of defending and maintaining the sovereignties of the State of Florida and the Confederate States of America. Although the Traveling Florida Confederate Memorial Wall contains only the names of those who served honorably and died during the period 1861-1865\, the initiative endeavors to pay homage to all of the aforementioned personnel. Therefore\, the primary goal of this nonpolitical undertaking is to provide an educational and sacred tribute to these men. \nReenactors Information\nRegistration Fee: $7.00 Per Person Charge for All Re-Enactors\, due upon arrival.

SUMMARY:Fort Taylor Living History Weekend

Re-enactor participation varies by weekend and weather conditions. \nYear Round\nOn the third weekend (Saturday and Sunday) of each of month\, Fort Taylor Living History Weekend offers you the opportunity to experience life in the fort as it was during the Civil War. \nLocation\nFort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park\n601 Howard England Way\nKey West\, FL 33040 \nMore Information: Kevin Bowes\, kevin.bowes@dep.state.fl.us (305) 292-6850 \nThe park is open from 8:00 a.m. until sundown\, 365 days a year. The fort closes at 5:00 p.m. \nAdmission Fees:\n$6.00* per vehicle. Limit 2-8 people per vehicle.\n$2.00* Pedestrians\, bicyclists\, extra passengers\, passengers in vehicle with holder of Annual Individual Entrance Pass.\n$4.00* Single-occupant vehicle or motorcycle.\n* Plus $.50 per person Monroe County Surcharge. \nHistory of Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park\nSpanish explorers first surveyed the island of Key West in 1513. After the Florida territory was transferred to the U.S.\, the Navy established a small depot here in 1822 to rid the area of pirates. Fishing\, salvaging wrecked ships and cigar manufacturing became the driving economic forces behind the island’s growth making Key West the richest city in Florida in the 1890s. The U.S. Army began construction of Fort Taylor\, named for President Zachary Taylor\, in 1845. With secession and the beginning of war in 1861\, Fort Taylor remained under federal control — one of only three fortresses in Florida to do so — and served as the headquarters for the Federal Navy’s East Gulf Coast Blockading Squadron staying on ‘active duty’ status through 1947. Today\, the fort is a National Historic Landmark containing the largest cache of Civil War-era seacoast cannons in the U.S. \nCannon and Arches\nUnion troops took control of Fort Zachary Taylor early in the Civil War and maintained it through the duration of the war. They made use of the fort’s impressive artillery\, including 10-inch Rodman and Columbiad cannons to detain blockade-running ships seeking to supply the Confederacy. In 1968\, a large supply of Civil War-era guns and ammunition were discovered in the Fort’s buried arsenal. In fact\, Fort Zachary Taylor held the largest collection of Civil War-era cannons in the United States. \nFort Moat\nSoon after the park opened to the public\, a contractor began the process of digging a moat around the fortress. There were two reasons for the project. One was to prevent easy entry into the structure. The other was to give the illusion of the fort in its early days\, surrounded by water. The end result was an attractive division between the fort and the beach and sea beyond. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Taylor Living History Weekend on the third Saturday and Sunday of each month at Historic Fort Taylor in Key West\, Florida. \nTags: Fort Taylor Living History Weekend\, Fort Zachary Taylor Living History Weekend\, Ft Taylor Living History Weekend \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events

SUMMARY:Skirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment
DESCRIPTION:2019 The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel\n\nRate This Event\n \nExperience The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment on March 9-10\, 2019 in Florence\, South Carolina. The reenactment depicts an encounter that occurred on March 5\, 1865 when 500 federal soldiers\, under the command of Colonel Reuben Williams of the 12th Indiana Infantry\, marched into the Florence area to destroy the railroad depot. These federal troops were met by a group of Confederate soldiers who drove them away with the help of 400 reinforcements from the area home guard. \n\nSkirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment\nBounty for Union SoldiersIn an effort to get more Federal soldiers\, we’re offering a $200 bounty for any group that can put 20 rifles on the field both days. The bounty is good for up to 3 groups. Out of state units will get preference. We still have the bounty for artillery\, see Garfield for that. And the bounty for cavalry. I think Petra is keeping up with that. \nThe Columns is a popular name for The Harwell House at Rankin Plantation\, a beautiful antebellum home that dates back over 100 years. The name refers to the 22 Greek style\, Doric columns that surround the home on three sides. The house was placed on the National Register of historic places in 1974. \nProceeds from Skirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment go towards historical preservation such as the 23rd History Scholarship\, the Florence Museum of Art\, Science and History\, the SC Confederate Relic Room & Military Museum at the SC State Museum\, and other worthy projects. \nAdmission$10.00 Adults$5.00 Students under 18FREE: Children under 12These funds will go directly to historic preservation or our scholarship at Francis Marion University. \nSkirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment Mini-Gallery\n \nSkirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment Schedule (tentative)Thursday12:00 am Registration & Gates Open For Sutlers & ReenactorsFriday8:00 am Registration & Gates Open For Sutlers & Reenactors8:30 am Demonstrations For Area Students3:00 pm Demonstrations Conclude9:00 pm Officers Meeting\, The Commander’s Quarters9:00 pm All Vehicles To Be Out Of CampLate arrivals may unload and then move their vehicles to parking.Saturday7:00 am Reveille8:30 am Morning Parade9:00 am Camps Open To The Public9:15 am Company Drill\, Scenario Review9:30 am Battalion Drill2:00 pm Skirmish At Gambles Hotel3:00 pm Troops To Pass In Review5:00 pm Camp Closed To Public8:00 pm Barn Dance\, 1860’s Period Dress Please11:00 pm Tattoo & TapsSunday7:00 am Reveille8:30 am Morning Parade9:00 am Camps Open To The Public10:45 am Soldiers Chorus Rehearsal\, Barn11:00 am Church Service\, Barn1:30 pm Skirmish For Reenactors2:00 pm Skirmish At Gambles HotelThe event is over with the dismissal of troops after the end of the battle on Sunday. Spectators are requested to make their way out without dallying too long. Reenactors may bring their vehicles in to load out. Please be extra watchful and careful as many people are still moving about the camps \nSchool DayWe will have historically correct presentations depicting camp life of the soldiers\, infantry and artillery drill\, cooking demonstrations\, a blacksmith and a civilian homestead. \nOur education program for The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel reenactment for school children is by invitation only. It’s not hard to get one\, but you must contact Petra Darby at 803-518-1921 or by email at petradarby[@]yahoo.com (without the brackets). And please note. To offset the cost of insurance\, we’re asking 5.00 per child that attends. \nDirections to The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel ReenactmentTo program your GPS\, use 4789 East Old Marion Hwy\, Florence\, SC 29502 for a street address. \nThe event site is located near the intersection of Interstates 95 and 20\, about 25 miles below the NC state line. That makes it easy from just about everywhere. \n[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Reenactor Information”]For The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel reenactment\, all usual amenities will be provided: water in the camp\, blue rooms at strategic locations\, plenty of hay in the barn\, and more firewood then you’ll be able to burn in a cold weekend! We have a barn dance on Saturday that has become renown. As it has always been\, there is no registration fee for reenactors. There will be about 20 sutlers there to get any gear you need. The city of Florence is only a few miles away and is large enough to accommodate any needs you may have. You may arrive as early as Thursday morning\, but be aware that we will have 1500 school children on Friday for the education program. \nEvery year we try to come up with something a bit different. If you attended the battle last year\, there’s a good chance you’ll see and do something different this year. \nDo you like to campaign? Get away from the hustle and bustle that goes on near the sutlers? Give me a shout. We’ve got no shortage of remote areas that would give the most hard core unit what they’re looking for. \nUnionists\, or good fellows who will wear a blue jacket – It’s only a six hour ride from the Mason Dixon line. We usually galvanize amongst ourselves\, but what a great opportunity for a federal unit to be spoiled at a fine event. Did you know it could be 80 degrees and sunny while a blizzard is blowing back home? Well\, it could! If you attended The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel reenactment just for a drill weekend\, you would surely mark it on your calendar for the following year. Contact Tom Grazioli at tom[@]associatedcomputer.cc (without the brackets) or call 843-455-2989 for more information. You can also check our bulletin board. \nArtillery – A bounty is being offered to guns that have been invited to The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel reenactment. Unfortunately we can’t give a stipen to every battery that might want to come. The money just isn’t there. We normally accommodate 10 guns. Contact John Nolan at johnnyrebsn2002[@]yahoo.com (without the brackets) for more information. \nCavalry – All horses\, donkeys\, and mules must have a current Coggins certificate. The farm works cattle across all the property that we use. When you arrive on site and register for the event\, you will have to show your certificate at that time. Do not bring an animal that does not have a current certificate. If you do\, you will be required to immediately remove the animal from the property. \nA bounty will be paid for each mounted trooper that participates. It’s $10.00 each day for each mount\, and $15 more if you do school day. It’s not a lot\, but we hope to cover the cost of your hay for the weekend. Collect your bounty at the mercantile after church on Sunday. \nThe Ball – Held on Saturday night in the top of the hay barn. The Crescent Moon Rounders will likely provide the music. And we keep a close eye on the hay lest we loose one of our men like the proverbial needle. Why they keep getting lost in there is a mystery to me\, but surely not to the fathers of the young ladies at the dance! \nOfficers Call – This will take place at 9:00 pm on Friday at the tent of Colonel Bruce Blackmon of the Palmetto Battalion. Make sure a representative of your unit attends to get more information and assignments as they will be determined at this meeting.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion][su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Spectator Information”]There is more than just the battle. The military and refugee camps are open and people are encouraged to visit and speak to the reenactors. The first person impressions are supposed to give you the experience of speaking to a person of that time and place. There is a cabin that would have been correct for field hands. You can expect cooking demonstrations. Sometimes we have candle makers and quilters demonstrating their skills. There’s always a blacksmith or two banging away at an anvil. \nThere are period merchants called “sutlers” that sell wares that would have been available at the time. There is also a varied selection of modern vendors selling food\, drinks and historically related items. \nThe house is usually open for tours. Those are conducted by the property owner separately from the event. Check at the gate as you arrive to see if any are planned.Be prepared to walk. The camps are about 100 yards from the battlefield. We do have handicapped parking close to the battlefield for those that require it. It doesn’t hurt to bring a lawn chair or blanket to sit on. We have an area in front designated just for people to sit. \nWhat time should you come in? The Skirmish At Gambles Hotel reenactment battle is at 2:00 in the afternoon. Skirmishing will begin even earlier. If I were you\, I’d get my lunch and take it down at 1:00 where I could get a good seat and eat while waiting. You will want to get to the site even earlier than that. Sometimes the line of cars will backup at the entrance. Come down at 11:00. Walk the camps and sutler row at your leisure. Get your lunch and mosey to the battlefield. It’s a pleasant way to spend a few hours and you might be surprised at what you’ll learn.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion]VendorsVendors and sutlers are by invitation only. We make an effort to limit the type of vendor so that there are not too many of any one kind. The fee for sutlers is $75. For modern vendors it’s $100. \nWe do not allow anything that is offensive or distasteful to be sold at your table or in your tent. We reserve the right to define what may be offensive or distasteful. If we find something objectionable\, you may be asked to remove it\, or you may be asked to leave the premises. \nWe set up the modern vendors closer to the house. Sutlers set up on one line facing the barn. Parking is really close\, less than a hundred yards from the most distant tent. There is adequate room for a camper to be set up\, but not enough to have a pavilion. There are no hookups. Generators are OK if they don’t bother anyone. If you prefer to stay in a hotel\, there is one at the 327 exit on 95\, just 7 or 8 miles away. And there are several more in Florence from 10 to 20 miles away. \n \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Skirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment in March in Florence\, South Carolina. \nTags: Skirmish At Gambles Hotel Reenactment\, Skirmish At Gambles Hotel Civil War Reenactment\, Civil War Reenactment\, Civil War Living History \nView other Civil War Reenactments\, Encampments & Other Events

The principal commanders were Union Maj. Gen. Hugh Judson Kilpatrick and Confederate Maj. Gen. Joseph Wheeler. Wheeler was able to score a minor victory over Kilpatrick. \nComing at the end of the war in the midst of the Con­federate defeat\, the Battle of Aiken makes few of the standard histories of the war. The Confederate victory is however crucial to the local history of the region because the victory prevented the destruction of the local capital and economy\, thus enabling the region to withstand the Reconstruction period better than other more devastated areas of the South. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Battle of Aiken Reenactment on the last full weekend in February in Aiken\, South Carolina. \nTags: Battle of Aiken Reenactment\, Battle of Aiken Civil War Reenactment\, South Carolina Civil War Reenactment\, Civil War Reenactment \nView Battle of Aiken Reenactment Detail

Sumter\, near Charleston\, SC took place in 1861 starting the American Civil War. While patriotic fervor swept California residents after this battle\, Volunteer Regiments\, recruited from pro-Union counties from the northern part of the state were sent to occupy pro-secessionist Southern California leaving Southern Californians powerless during the war. Although 17\,000 men from California participated in the War Between the States\, California’s contribution to the effort was of small scale. \nMark your calendar now so you won’t miss one cannon blast at the Calico Ghost Town Civil War Reenactment at the Calico Ghost Town in Yermo\, California next President’s Day Weekend in February. \n \nTags: Calico Ghost Town Civil War Reenactment\, Calico Ghost Town\, Civil War Reenactment \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events

The camps are everywhere. Many are strictly military\, others are civilian and still others are combined. Visitors/spectators are encouraged to visit the authentic camps\, wander among the campfires\, listen to the soldiers and civilians and ask questions. While you should not wander through the modern reenactor camps\, you are welcome to visit the authentic Federal (Union) infantry and civilian camps\, the combined Federal and Confederate cavalry and artillery camps\, and the Confederate infantry and civilian camps. \nOlustee Battle Reenactment Mini-Gallery\n \nSutlers are Civil War-era merchants. During the Civil War every regiment or brigade had a sutler licensed to follow along and sell “extras” to the men. These extras included food items\, such as cans of sweetened condensed milk (a favorite with the men); to clothing\, such as civilian-style shirts; to some items hidden away from the eyes of the Provost (military police). Olustee usually has 40-50 sutlers in attendance and these sutlers must pass inspection for the authenticity of their goods and appearance. \nDaily Olustee Battle Reenactment Schedule Summaries: \nFriday: Education DayFriday is the day when thousands of students invade the site with their teachers and parents to learn more about the Civil War. There are medical\, cavalry\, artillery and infantry demonstrations. Some students are here just to roam\, talk to the reenactors and absorb history. Others have definite history assignments they are working on\, everything from books to audio and photographic projects. If you wish your child to attend\, ask your school to contact the Florida Park Service at (386) 397-2733 or e-mail olusteecso@yahoo.com. Many home-schoolers bring their children to Olustee to absorb this period of our history.Saturday: Olustee Battle ReenactmentUnless you must witness the scripted Olustee Battle Reenactment\, Saturday is the best day for spectators. Not only do you have most of the day to visit the authentic camps and sutler area\, but the full-scale Saturday battle is not until 3:30 pm (or 2 hours later than on Sunday). In addition\, the crowds will be smaller than on Sunday. And after the battle\, why rush to wait in the lines at the bus pickup points when you can take your time ambling through the camps watching the reenactors rest up and clean their weapons after fighting and dying. \n \nAfter dinner\, many of the reenactors will be putting on their dress uniforms and gowns for the Reenactor’s Ball later that evening. The Ball is not open to the spectators and you will have left the event site long before it begins. Other reenactors will spend the evening campfire visiting\, telling tales of other events\, discussing the Civil War and just visiting with friends. The “sense of community” is strong among reenactors and many of us don’t see each other except for these events\, as our homes are distant from one another. But friendships are strong and campfire visits are the best time to meet with comrades: when officers and enlisted men\, from ditch diggers to bank presidents and even\, of all things\, entomologists\, share the warmth of the fire and a drink from a canteen (or other liquid containers). \nSunday: Olustee Battle ReenactmentPlan to arrive early on Sunday\, as the main event – the scripted Olustee Battle Reenactment\, is at 1:30 pm. If you want to see any of the camps or spend time at the sutler area you need to arrive early as you should really head toward the battle area about 12:30 at the latest. Arrive after this time and the best seats—there are only eight sets of bleachers—will be taken. Why not pack a picnic lunch and use the time waiting to enjoy it with your family. An authentic band will play Civil War music to entertain you while you wait. [Hint: Since this is a Federal defeat\, most of the action takes place on the Union side (east side) of the field. Find a seat on the ground there.] \nEven before the troops begin to assemble for Sunday’s Olustee Battle Reenactment\, many of them will take down their tents and pack their belongings. We all have a long drive home—especially those from the northern states—and after the battle we will be scattering to the four winds.

This 3 day event portrays the time period of 1861-1862 at a Federal fortress. First person interpretation\, weapons demonstrations and camp life are featured on a daily basis. \n\nFort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days\nIt’s an historical re-enactment of when Fort Taylor was active during the American Civil War in the 1860s. This fortress was one of three fortresses in Florida that was held by Federal forces throughout that conflict. While there were no major battles or skirmishes at Fort Taylor during the American Civil War\, this event demonstrates to visitors the role the fortress played during the Civil War. It assisted the Federal Navy in administering the blockade of southern ports that was imposed by President Lincoln shortly after war broke out. \nEvent Time: Friday – 8:00am EST to Sunday – 5:00pm EST \nReenactor Fee: $5.00 fee for weekend. Another $5.00 for shooters on the schooners if you want to go on the boats. If you want to board the boat\, but not be a shooter\, that fee depends on the boat. Some charge full price (about $35\, while some half that amount). \nLocation:\nFort Taylor\n601 Howard England Way\nKey West\, FL 33040 \nDirections: Take I-95 south all the way into the Keys.

Captured blockade runners were forced to anchor in the waters just offshore. \nFort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days reenactment participants who portray southerners are “captured” as their vessel attempts to run the Federal blockade of Key West Harbor. The ship’s master is put on trial by a Federal court. The case is taken from an actual court transcript from 1862. The event features a military-style parade from a Civil War memorial to Fort Taylor along Key ‘ famous Duval Street. Visitors can also shop at period sutlers\, the stores of the day. Event highlights focus on educating the public by sharing the history of Fort Taylor and life during the Civil War. \nFor more information on how to get involved in Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days\, contact Kevin Bowes at kevin.bowes@dep.state.fl.us (link sends e-mail). \, or (305) 292-6850. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days the first weekend in February in Key West\, Florida. \nTags: Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days\, Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days Reenactment\, Civil War Reenactment\, Ft Taylor\, Battle at Fort Taylor \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events

SUMMARY:Windows to the Civil War
DESCRIPTION:2018 Windows to the Civil War\n\nRate This Event\n \nExperience hands on history at the 3rd Annual Windows to the Civil War on November 2-4\, 2018 at the Middletown Mansion Event Center in Middletown\, California. Friends of Gibson Museum volunteers will underwrite reenactments of Civil War battle reenactments by the American Civil War Association (ACWA). This year\, in conjunction with the Lake County Historical Society (LCHS) and the Museums of Lake County\, the Friends group will at last be able to bring historical information to young people in an engaging\, informal way. Guests are encouraged to come in period attire to add to the fun. \nGibson Museum & Cultural Center has been joined in sponsorship this year by the Museums of Lake County\, which also operates the Historic Courthouse Museum in Lakeport and and the Historic Schoolhouse Museum in Lower Lake\, and the Lake County Historical Society which provided support for the founding of Gibson Museum prior to its joining the county system. \nAdmission\n$15.00 Adult\n$8.00 Children 7 to 12\nFree – Children 6 & under\nTickets to the event are on sale October 1 at all three county museums\, in Lakeport\, Lower Lake and Middletown. \nPublic Hours\nSaturday: 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.\nSunday: 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. \n“Windows to the Civil War” Activities (Saturday & Sunday): \n\nThere will\, of course\, be reenactments of Civil War battles by the American Civil War Association\, with vintage weaponry and harmless black powder to provide theatrical smoke and noise\, at 1 and 4 Saturday and at 11 and 2 Sunday.\nVisit with the Union and Confederate soldiers. Ask questions and share their years of learning depicting living history at Civil War reenactments.\nEvent visitors can tour the encampments\, the weaponry\, the sutlers stores and a period village before\, after\, and in-between battles\, in addition to enjoying the speakers and demonstrations. Children especially seem to enjoy questioning the soldiers.\nLearn about Lake County’s connection to the war and California’s participation.\nHear the Confederacy explained\, and the myths that have grown up about it.\nMarvel at food fashions and availability from 150-200 years ago.\nLearn about women soldiers\, black and immigrant troops and more fascinating little-known facts.\nAn old-fashioned Contra Dance\, lauded as fun even for those who “don’t dance\,” will be open to all Saturday evening from 6 to 9 p.m. A donation of $5 is suggested to help compensate the Cobb Stompers musicians.\n\n \n“Windows to the Civil War” offers little-known facts from history. A raft of probably surprising information will be available to visitors to Gibson Museum’s upcoming Civil War event: \n\nCalifornia\, just eleven years old with a fewer than 380\,000 residents\, mustered a higher percentage of volunteers for the Union army than of the other 34 states. It is likely that an equal or greater number of Californians joined the Confederate forces\, though hard data is scarce.\nLake County was created five-and-a-half-weeks after the war was started by the firing on Ft. Sumter\, yet it had a significant role in the Civil War.\nFood\, its preparation and the trials of foraging for it\, was the subject most commonly included in soldiers’ letters home.\nConcerned and curious onlookers watched sham battles or actual bloody encounters of the war while noshing from their picnic baskets or on goodies bought from strolling “huxter women.” Ladies wore their Sunday best for the occasion.\n\nExplanations of these and similar facts will be offered to visitors of the third Civil War event sponsored by Gibson Museum & Cultural Center\, this year known as Windows to the Civil War. \n\ntext\nDean Enderlin\, in his role as local commander of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War\, will explain our local connection to the war.\nPhil Smoley will share his lifelong study of the Civil War with insights into the rationale of the Confederacy and the controversy over the issue of slavery or states rights.\nCarolynn Birilli brings surprises about 19th century culinary history and its effects on military\, civilian\, and enslaved populations.\nBarbara White will again offer the dressing demonstrations that have been a favorite of Civil War event-goers throughout northern California for decades\, including the past two years at the Mansion.\nVoris Brumfield will assume the persona of her great-great-grandmother\, a slave\, to explore the poplarity of the folk song “Goober Peas” and read the Proclamation of Independence.\nOther presenters will afford equally illuminating and entertaining fare.\ntext\ntext\n\nWindows to the Civil War School Day (Friday) \nSchoolchildren will be brought to the event site\, the Middletown Mansion Event Center\, Friday for a “school day” a day before the event opens to the general public. LCHS will draw on funds from a grant extended by Lake County’s Wine Alliance to provide buses for middle school and high school students. \nAmerican Civil War Association participants will be on hand for the School Day to play teacher to the about 300 middle-school and high school students expected to arrive by bus\, a donation of the Lake County Historical Society. \nGroups of students will rotate through eight outdoor “classrooms” formed of hay-bale seating where “instructors” from ACWA will teach them about weapons and uniforms\, marching and drilling\, women as soldiers\, telegraph communication\, women’s clothing\, camp hospitals and how a cannon is fired. \nLocation\nMiddletown Mansion Event Center\n20650 Highway 29\nMiddletown\, CA 95461\n(707) 263-4555 \nFor More Information\nCall 263-4555; Email info@friendsofgibson.com; Gibson Museum Website. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Windows to the Civil War in November at the Middletown Mansion Event Center in Middletown\, California. \nTags: Windows to the Civil War\, California Civil War Reenactment \nView other Civil War Reenactments\, Encampments & Other Events

SUMMARY:Guyandotte Civil War Days Reenactment
DESCRIPTION:2018 Guyandotte Civil War Days Reenactment\n\nRate This Event\n \nRelive history at the 29th Annual Guyandotte Civil War Days Reenactment on October 31 November 4\, 2018 in the historic Huntington neighborhood of Guyandotte\, West Virginia. The reenactment celebrates the Anniversary of the Raid on Guyandotte that took place in 1861. Guyandotte Civil War Days focuses its programs on this historic event in an effort to celebrate and promote the rich heritage of the area. The re-enactment of the Confederate raid on Saturday is the highlight of this event. The re-enactment is a true re-enactment based on known historical facts concerning the November 10\,1861\, skirmish. \n\nGuyandotte Civil War Days Reenactment\nOn November 10\, 1861 the sleepy southern town of Guyandotte was firmly in Union hands. Confederate raiders struck suddenly and quickly\, capturing the Garrison and returning the village to the dominion of the Stars and Bars. That conquest was short-lived\, however. As the Confederates were leaving town the next morning with 110 prisoners in tow\, Union troops returned and took vengeance on what they considered a “seesech” (secession) town. By nightfall\, two-thirds of the village had been burned to the ground. \nToday\, the dirt roads are paved\, modern buildings have replaced many of the burned out frames\, and Guyandotte is a part of contemporary Huntington\, West Virginia. Come join us where history was made as the sights and sounds of the Civil War return as hundreds of re-enactors participate in “America’s greatest street battle.” \nEvent Features: \n\nTour the Historic Madie Carroll House built in 1810\nTour Historic Churches\nTour Historic Homes & Buildings\nCivil War Haunted History Tours of Guyandotte\nVisit Sutlers Row\nArts & Crafts\nFood Vendors\nBattle Scenarios\n\nGuyandotte Civil War Days Reenactment Mini Gallery\n\n \nGuyandotte Civil War Days Reenactment Schedule\nThis schedule is subject to minor revisions or additions. \nWednesday – Friday\nThese dates (beginning at 7:00 p.m.) are reserved for lectures\, plays\, and/or other presentations.

As thousands of onlookers watch hundreds of reenactors armed with rifles and cannons portray carefully choreographed battles of the Civil War. \nPreparing for the Battle Reenactment\nBefore the Saturday afternoon battle commenced up the hill at the farm\, Union infantrymen prepare for what they know will be a long march to the battlefield and a tough battle. They pack up their ammunition pouches and fill their knapsacks with food and gear. As in the days of the real battle\, infantrymen never knew where they would end up following the battle\, so they carried everything with them\, including bedding. \n \nWhile they prepared themselves\, women and children lined the gravel path wearing period clothing\, waiting to cheer on the soldiers as they marched past. It was a tradition of the time to support the men and see them off. \nVisitors will want to arrive at least 1/2 hour early to walk up the hill to the Battlefield. The Battle scenes are the same on both days\, so choose whichever day fits your schedule. Tickets are required for the battle and are available online on the event site (see link at right). \nBattle Times\n2:00 p.m. – Saturday\n2:00 p.m. – Sunday\n* Allow at least 1/2 hour to walk up the hill to the Battlefield!

There are many things that reenactos do in camp that are period activities that they would love to share information to the public about. Just be polite and ask them what they are doing. They are usually just waiting for someone to ask them. Visitor FAQs \n[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”More Visitor Detail”]\nPets must be on a leash. Rethink bringing them as they are often quite scared of the cannons. Dogs especially often do not like the horses and equally the horses sometimes become skittish around barking dogs. \nNo rain dates. Just as in the Civil War\, Battle of Camp Wildcat Reenactment takes place regardless of the weather. Just bring the appropriate attire for the weather. \nOften very small children get scared or the cannon fire hurts their ears. We suggest ear muffs or ear plugs (we usually have ear plugs for sell at the concession area). As for car alarms\, the cannons are so loud and shake the ground so much\, car alarms are usually set off. We ask that you do not set your car alarms while on site. Car alarms sounding are not pleasant for anyone.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nSchool Day Information\nSchool day is targeted between the hours of 9a-2p with a small skirmish on the field directly in front of the barn at noon. Schools need to register by email at nita@wildcatreenactment.org Please include name and contact information for your school representative and the number of children attending and the number of adults. School Day FAQs \nReinactor Information\nWood\, hay\, water\, dance\, and dinner on Saturday is provided for all reenactors. Dinner on Friday is provided to those who participate in school day. Prepaid reenactors are guaranteed a ration of gunpowder and any freebies given away at registration. Walk-ons will get these until supplies run out. Ice will be available for purchase.\nReenactor FAQs | Reenactor Registration \n[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”More Reenactor Detail”]Reenactors are encouraged to maintain period camps\, attitudes\, attire\, and demonstrations. But the main purpose is to share some history with the spectators\, provide a safe\, fun place for reenactors to do what they do best- reenact. Reenactors should encourage family participation. Many people will experience the Battle of Camp Wildcat Reenactment as their first time on the field.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \n \nSutlers\nWe hope we have a lot of sutlers available. We do try to keep the same kinds of sutlers to no more than two but when there are variety sutlers instead of specialty sutlers it makes it hard. We think that reenactors and the public should be able to shop and see a wide variety of things that would have been available during the Civil War period. Non-period sutlers are allowed also. We put Them on the other side of the barn away from period sutler row. However\, we do try to limit the non-period sutlers to things that might have been available during the time period.

To commemorate Fort Frederick’s role in the American Civil War\, reenactors will assemble for a weekend of living history demonstrations and tactics demonstrations. H \n[embedyt]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJX9gnMnkbA&feature=youtu.be&width=650&height=400[/embedyt] \nFort Frederick in the Civil War\nEvent Hours: Daily 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. \nPublic Admission: \nAdults – $5.00\nAges 6 to 12 – $2.00\nAges 5 and Under – free\n4-day passes available; contact the Park Visitor Center at 301-842-2155. \nLocation\nFort Frederick State Park\n11100 Fort Frederick Road\nBig Pool\, MD 21711 \nFor more information: call 301-842-2155; email fortfrederick.statepark@maryland.gov \nHistory of Fort Frederick in the Civil War\nThroughout the first half of the 19th Century\, the fort and surrounding grounds were used for agricultural purposes\, and changed ownership several times. In 1860\, Nathan Williams\, whose family would maintain ownership for the next 51 years\, purchased the property. By this time the barracks had disappeared\, due to time as well as scavengers looking for a ready supply of lumber and nails. \nWith the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861\, the area around Fort Frederick once again became important militarily. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal\, which passes one-quarter mile south of the fort (the railroad did not yet exist on this side of the river)\, and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad on the opposite (then Virginia) side of the river\, became focal points of defense for the Union Army. In December the 1st Maryland Infantry (U.S.) under the command of Colonel John Kenly\, was assigned to protect the canal and guard the fords and ferries of the Potomac River between Four Locks\, to the east\, and Cherry Run\, to the west. Company H of this regiment was ordered to occupy Fort Frederick. On Christmas Day\, 1861\, these troops fought a skirmish with Confederate Cavalry. The skirmish took place along the Potomac River below the fort and the Union troops guarding the river were successful in defending the canal\, but were not able to prevent Confederates from tearing up the railroad on the other side. On January 1\, 1862 another skirmish took place at the Fort\, as Union Troops again repulsed confederates attempting to tear up the railroad. \nFort Frederick continued to be occupied\, and in January 1862\, with the 1st Maryland being redistributed to guard points further west towards Hancock\, Company D replaced Company H here. These troops remained until the end of February\, when they\, along with others\, crossed the Potomac to guard the reconstruction of the B&O Railroad. Also during this period of time Union artillery was placed at the fort and was used against the Confederates in Virginia. \nThis is the last occurrence of the fort’s use by a military command. However\, the area around the fort remained vulnerable to Confederate Raiders through the rest of the war. Hence\, troops frequently passed near the fort and at times occupied grounds now encompassed by the state park. Most notable is October 1862 when a picket of the 12th Illinois Cavalry was assigned to the canal “immediately south of old Fort Frederick.” \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Frederick in the Civil War at Fort Frederick State Park in Big Pool\, Maryland. \nTags: Fort Frederick in the Civil War\, Civil War Reenactment \nView other Civil War Reenactments\, Encampments & Other Events
