READ THIS: Info from on site Wednesday!!!
From Skip who is on site:
"Matt, this was my observation at the event. I asked the guy at the gate and he said the band is just checked by hired security. I don't want guys getting upset at this. We can think through it and not make it a big deal... Just take em off after you leave the parking lot and enter the event. (There must be some kind of wrist band thing that they want us as reenactors to wear. Make sure you can take it off after registering, but keep it on you for the event. -Matt
Also up till Friday at 0800 (maybe later) guys may drop off company baggage in the regimental area.
I walked down to Little Bull Run and it's flowing with cool water.. About 100yds from our camp. Good for us as we'll have a place to get in the water to cool off. Bring your drawers as there is a neighborhood behind the woods and I don't want any of you naked in front of some guy's little daughter who calls the cops. - Matt
The company fires will need to be in the field, just outside the wood line, but we are going to be fine and shouldn't have many atrocities to look at.
-Porta-johns and other modern items are out if site...
-We have a couple cool places of level ground for our organized activites. Bring your bowie knife, throwing knife, etc. as there is a regimental contest with a prize of a bottle of whiskey and money to spend at the event. -Matt
-Regimental Comm. will be making runs tomorrow and Friday with the goods.
-The regiment's company streets will be aligned south to north into the woods. Fires will be in outside the wood line. Streets will be aligned as we fall in facing the woods, A on right, B on left, etc. Regt HQ will be in the woodline adjacent to the 2d Miss white sign.
About 20 degrees cooler in the camp site because of the shade.
All in all in my opinion we are sitting high on the hog!"
Good news for all of us. Woods, shade, flowing creek, fun and merriment. Everyone drive safely!
