| Dear Reenactor, Your participation is the key component to our successful event. We hope you will encourage other reenactment organizations to consider participating too. Please mark your calendars for Saturday, June 1 & 2, 2013 for Pennypacker Mill’s Civil War Reunion. You are welcome to share the event website with your members as a way to enlist participation and then download the registration form and mail it to us with your check. Please be sure to distribute all the rules and regulations to your unit members and have them also print out, sign and bring with them the Participant Waiver. It is your responsibility to make sure that they are aware of our rules. There are two rules which we’d like to highlight this year.

We are planning another exciting event and hope you and your unit will participate this year. It is the participation of outstanding military & artillery units, authentic living history groups, great speakers, interesting sutlers, memorable music, and family oriented activities that make this event such a wonderful experience for our visitors. Please encourage as many members to attend as possible. We know many of you do outstanding interpretation and we hope you will be willing to share those talents as a scheduled activity on this weekend. Please indicate on your registration forms what your particular demonstration will be, and we will be sure to include it in our event program. One of the most popular programs at this event is the Lantern Tours which we offer on Saturday evening. Many visitors remark that the nighttime added to the intimacy of the experience and really gave them a sense of the people who lived through the war. Please consider helping us with either a first person interpretation or as a lantern guide. The numbers of visitors wanting to participate has grown substantially and your help is needed more than ever! Any questions or suggestions, please give us a call. Another wonderful program we offer is our Civil War School Day and this year it will be held on Friday, June 1st. Middle School students from across the Delaware Valley attend this fantastic program each year and your help is needed to make it a success. See information on the Civil War School Day web page. The reenactor registration fee is waived for those that participate for the School Day program. Thank you for your continued participation and enthusiasm for our Civil War event. You bring it to life for our visitors each year and we can’t thank you enough! Sincerely, |
