Retreat From Gettysburg

[skamikaze]

All,

The National Park Service, in conjunction with the town of Williamsport, MD will be hosting a "Retreat from Gettysurg" living history and march on July 9th-11th.

All are encouraged to participate, and there are no registration fees.

There will be firing demonstrations, artillery demonstrations, a screening of "10 Days and Still They Come;" a Russ Richards film, a small skirmish and a confederate march from Williamsport to Falling Waters, WV (5 miles).

I know this is short notice, but come on out and help build an event with a lot of potential and town/NPS support.

More details to come!

I plan on attending, there will be 6-7 of us. Do you need blue or grey?

that's great!

Honestly, bring both if you can. I know we will have more rebs than feds so I'm telling my guys to bring both.

The march on sunday is confederate only, so bring grey for a nice walk across the river.

see you there!

Dave,
I went to the website, but could not get the buttons to open for more information. As I mentioned, I would be very interested in this in the future. We just have a conflict that weekend. I will look forward to hearing how it goes this year.

Will do! We usually bring both anyway. Looking forward to the march!

Rob, Just got an email from the coordinator that the site isn't totally ready yet, but if you need anymore details feel free to PM or email me: skamikaze1005@hotmail.com

We'd love to start seeing you guys at the event, but I understand that this year is booked. We got in the game a little late. I think there are 5 events in MD that weekend. We'll talk at Wellbourne!

Brandon, Good deal. Look forward to meeting you. You coming to Shen '62?

Looking forward to meeting you as well. Looking forward to this event. Wish I could make it next weekend but I have to work.

Just a bump, we could use a few more federals (or guys who want to bring both kits) to flesh things out a bit.

hope to see you there for a good weekend.
