Re: Federal Campaigner Co. for Brice's Crossroads
To all my fellow re-enactor friends who've shared their opinions within this thread, let me apologize for the un related "bull crap" that went on between Dale and Myself while I was in Gettysburg...I'm very sorry you wasted your time reading that. You'll notice, if you read all that, that I made the comment that the conversation needed to get back on subject.
As to making WIG, CPH, or IPW, type and style events, rest assured that most of us in the 16th La. want to make these events when we can. We'd like to support the event, their host, and the goals for the betterment of this side of the hobby. Unfortunately, and like some have already said, real life can get in the way. I'm very happy for those 7% ers who were able to fit the IPW event in their schedule, in fact I'm jealous ! I read the AAR's and was very impressed with the efforts made by Tom and others, to make IPW the great experience it sounded like it was. Three cheers to you all.
As for coming to B.C., or rather my invite to join us. If you want the event to shape your experience then don't come. I doubt very seriously the event will feed your needs. I'm going because the weekend is available to me, and there is an "event" that weekend. Mainstream yes, but never the less a good opportunity for me and my fellow unit members to enjoy each others company, and maybe in spite of it all have a good time putting forth the effort to get better as a reenactor and at the least be in a company of men of like mind.
For sure don't come to the event because I'll be the Captain of this consolidated company. I pale in comparrison to the Terry Sorchy's and Pat Craddock's of the the hobby. However, I'm working as hard as I can to hone the impression, and carry the title.
Additionally, I'm very sorry for the delay in getting the previous post up. I had emailed the information to those who are on the list. But was waiting on some others who are still in the process of trying to get their schedules worked out, so because of that I'm tardy.
As for whether or not the invite merits being posted here on this site, well let me say it isn't posted on the other site for obvious reasons, and I'd assumed it met the minimum standards for posting here. If you will bear with me the date will be here and gone in just over two weeks and I'll refrain from posting another invite.
In closing, I'll publically ask my fellow unit member Dale Beasley to please refrain from making any additonal post concerning this thread. I hope to post additional names to the list very soon. And I'll look for you Joe in the crowd of spectators...maybe we'll see you at Jarnigans. Sorry this consolidated effort doesn't appeal to you, I know I'd enjoy your company and I'm sure I would learn a lot from you.
Respectfully,
