The Battle of Athens sesquicentennial event will take place August 6 - 7, 2011, in the original village, located in the northeastern corner of Missouri. This is a beautiful site near the Iowa River. The battle will take place on original ground.
There will be a small authentic civilian contingent, portraying the citizens who lived in town during the battle. The village is now being maintained as a state park, and we will be able to live in the houses.
All registrations should go through Charles Hoskins, Holmes Brigade, but I can help out with questions regarding civilians. Further event information will be posted later tonight.
Let me know if you have any questions.
