The military units we represent are the 1st North Carolina Volunteers (the Bethel Regiment) and the 11th North Carolina Regiment. This allows flexibility to adapt to any reenactment period and still remain historically correct. 1st NC Volunteers often coordinate their efforts with state and national historic sites and events\, such as the Spring Fort Macon Civil War Reenactment. \nAbout The Battle of Fort Macon in 1862\nThe Siege of Fort Macon took place from March 23 to April 26\, 1862\, on the Outer Banks of Carteret County\, North Carolina. It was part of Union Army General Ambrose E. Burnside’s North Carolina Expedition during the American Civil War.\nIn late March\, Major General Burnside’s army advanced on Fort Macon\, a fort that commanded the channel to Beaufort\, 35 miles southeast of New Bern. The Union force engaged the fort with siege works and on April 25 opened an accurate fire on the fort\, soon breaching the masonry walls. Within a few hours the fort’s scarp began to collapse\, and in late afternoon the Confederate commander\, Colonel Moses J. White\, ordered the raising of a white flag. Burnside’s terms of surrender were accepted\, and the Federal troops took possession of the fort the next morning. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Spring Fort Macon Civil War Reenactment in Atlantic Beach\, North Carolina. \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/summer-fort-macon-civil-war-reenactment/ LOCATION:Fort Macon State Park\, 2303 East Fort Macon Road\, Atlantic Beach\, NC\, 28512\, United States CATEGORIES:American Civil War Reenactment,Battle Reenactments & Encampments,Historic American Forts,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Fort-Macon-Civil-War-Reenactment-06-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="1st NC Volunteers":MAILTO:LGordon3@nc.rr.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170619 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170624 DTSTAMP:20260409T215042 CREATED:20160619T135604Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170129T141949Z UID:5611-1497830400-1498262399@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Fort Loudon Junior Ranger Camp Program DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Fort Loudon Junior Ranger Camp Program on June 19-23\, 2017 at the Fort Loudon State Historic Park in Vonore\, Tennessee.

The military units we represent are the 1st North Carolina Volunteers (the Bethel Regiment) and the 11th North Carolina Regiment. This allows flexibility to adapt to any reenactment period and still remain historically correct. 1st NC Volunteers often coordinate their efforts with state and national historic sites and events\, such as the Spring Fort Macon Civil War Reenactment. \nAbout The Battle of Fort Macon in 1862\nThe Siege of Fort Macon took place from March 23 to April 26\, 1862\, on the Outer Banks of Carteret County\, North Carolina. It was part of Union Army General Ambrose E. Burnside’s North Carolina Expedition during the American Civil War.\nIn late March\, Major General Burnside’s army advanced on Fort Macon\, a fort that commanded the channel to Beaufort\, 35 miles southeast of New Bern. The Union force engaged the fort with siege works and on April 25 opened an accurate fire on the fort\, soon breaching the masonry walls. Within a few hours the fort’s scarp began to collapse\, and in late afternoon the Confederate commander\, Colonel Moses J. White\, ordered the raising of a white flag. Burnside’s terms of surrender were accepted\, and the Federal troops took possession of the fort the next morning. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Spring Fort Macon Civil War Reenactment in Atlantic Beach\, North Carolina. \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/spring-fort-macon-civil-war-reenactment/ LOCATION:Fort Macon State Park\, 2303 East Fort Macon Road\, Atlantic Beach\, NC\, 28512\, United States CATEGORIES:American Civil War Reenactment,Battle Reenactments & Encampments,Historic American Forts,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Fort-Macon-Civil-War-Reenactment-01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="1st NC Volunteers":MAILTO:LGordon3@nc.rr.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170318 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170320 DTSTAMP:20260409T215042 CREATED:20160905T215334Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160905T215637Z UID:8006-1489795200-1489967999@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Picacho Peak Civil War Reenactment DESCRIPTION:Relive history at the Picacho Peak Civil War Reenactment on March 18-19\, 2017 at the Picacho Peak State Park in Eloy\, Arizona. Join with thousands of spectators who come to watch the reenactment of the Arizona Civil War skirmish\, the Battle of Picacho Pass — and the New Mexico battles of Glorieta and Val Verde. \n[embedyt] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAGVLdrZ5Y4&width=540&height=333[/embedyt] \nVisitors travel from around the country to experience the Picacho Peak Civil War Reenactment with its three exciting and historic battle reenactments complete with lifestyles of the soldiers in the southwest during the 1860s. More than 200 reenactors come from many states to camp at the park with their authentic Civil War camping gear. \nFood and beverage concessions will be available. Visitors are encouraged to bring plenty of water\, as well as lawn chairs\, hats and sunscreen. Pets are not permitted (they don’t much care for cannon and musket fire!). \n \nIn addition to the battle reenactments\, spectators can see artillery and cavalry demonstrations\, presentations on women in the Civil War and soldiering in the Southwest\, plus the “period-appropriate” musical entertainment. \nThe Battle of Picacho Peak\nCivil War battles across America were well documented and history teachers carefully covered each battle across the East Coast\, but few ever thought what was happening in the West during this time. A battle of the American Civil War was a skirmish fought near a rocky spire called Picacho Peak located between Phoenix and Tucson\, Arizona. The new highway follows the old wagon route that passed Picacho in 1862. \nIn 1860 the New Mexico Territory\, which consisted of the lands that would become the states of Arizona and New Mexico\, was sparsely populated. When the Civil War broke out in 1861\, the U.S. Government recalled the majority of its troops from the West to build the Union army for the fighting in the east. Henry Hopkins Sibley joined the Confederacy and convinced Jefferson Davis that he would raise an army in Texas and invade New Mexico territories. He proposed that mineral resources would fill the coffers of the Confederacy and fund their massive war effort. \n \nTucson was the capitol of the Confederate Territory of Arizona between February 20\, 1862 when some 120 Texas Rebels took control of El Presidio San Agustin del Tucson and late April\, when the 1\,800-strong Union army of the California Volunteers entered this dusty\, dirty little Mexican town without firing a shot. \nDuring that short period\, 50 miles NW of Tucson\, an engagement was fought between a Union cavalry patrol and a party of Confederate pickets from Tucson. Every year in March\, dedicated men and women from all over come together at Picacho Peak State Park to reenact The Battle of Picacho Peak. \nMark your calendar so you won’t miss any of the action at the Picacho Peak Civil War Reenactment at the Picacho Peak State Park in Eloy\, Arizona! \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/picacho-peak-civil-war-reenactment/ LOCATION:Picacho Peak State Park\, Eloy\, AZ\, 85131\, United States CATEGORIES:American Civil War Reenactment,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Picacho-Peak-Civil-War-Reenactment-01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Arizona State Parks Foundation":MAILTO:contact@arizonastateparksfoundation.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170311 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170313 DTSTAMP:20260409T215042 CREATED:20170304T043046Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170304T043905Z UID:12454-1489190400-1489363199@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Battles for New Berne Reenactment DESCRIPTION:The Battles for New Berne Reenactment on March 11-12\, 2017 at the Kinsey Farm in Dover\, North Carolina will see over 1500 Civil War re-enactors recreate two historic battles.

On the morning of September 18\, the forces converged on Ticonderoga. Over the next few days Colonel John Brown’s force captured the British blockhouse at the top of Mount Defiance\, secured the release of 118 American prisoners and captured nearly 300 British soldiers. \nBrown’s men also burned several of the Fort’s outbuildings and destroyed about 150 batteaux. However the American forces soon realized that without reinforcements and additional supplies\, a direct attack on the Fort would not succeed\, and on September 22 Colonel Brown’s force called off the attack. Less than a month later\, the British army surrendered at Saratoga. \nIn early November\, cut off\, short of food\, and the weather getting colder the British-held posts of Fort Ticonderoga and Mount Independence made the hard decision to withdraw back to Canada. \nView other Revolutionary War Reenactments & Other Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/german-british-soldiers-leave-fort-ticonderoga/ LOCATION:Fort Ticonderoga\, 100 Fort Ti Road\, Ticonderoga\, NY\, 12883\, United States CATEGORIES:American Revolutionary War Reenactment,Living History Events,US Historic Reenactor Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/fort-ticonderoga-germans-and-british-leave-reenactment01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Fort Ticonderoga- Living History & Reenactments":MAILTO:info@fort-ticonderoga.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20161105T100000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20161106T170000 DTSTAMP:20260409T215042 CREATED:20160619T152630Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180204T150411Z UID:5623-1478340000-1478451600@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Fort Loudoun Christmas Candlelight Tour DESCRIPTION:18th Century Fort Loudoun Christmas Candlelight Tour\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nCelebrate Christmas in the 18th century style with native greenery\, carols and wassail.
