A Call To Arms!
Do
you have an interest in 18th century history? Do you enjoy camping
and the outdoors and would like to give it a "purpose?"
Do you have a relative who was in the American Revolutionary
War and would like to honor his memory? Would you like a way to honor all the American service men & women? Or are you just looking
for a fun family hobby?
There
are many reasons why people get involved in reenacting - the excitement
of the battles, the camaraderie of the extended reenactment family,
and the ability to keep a key time in American history alive and
in the minds of the public lead the list. The recreated Coren's
Independent Artillery embraces all of these reasons in encouraging
people to join the organization.
While
the unit provides all the camp kitchen equipment and some tents,
members are expected to purchase their own clothing and accoutrements.
However, don't let that intimidate you! We have plenty of extra
clothes on hand to loan you as you get your kit together.
A
family hobby
Bring
your family along! Women and children are also encouraged to participate
in camp activities, learn and demonstrate the arts and crafts of
the period, and simply enjoy the outdoors.
Please
note: Participants in battles and tactical demonstrations must
be at least 16 years old. Members under the age of 18 are required
to join with a parent or guardian who must accompany them at events.
