2012 New Market Battlefield Reenactment
Gentlemen:
The New Market website for 2012 is up and running.
Click HERE to go to the website for information.
I would like you to consider attending again this event for 2012.
With your help we have gone from one gun, to a full six gun battery.
If two more cannon join, us we could have two four gun batteries on the field.
There will undoubtedly be an artillery duel on Friday, which is the start of the events.
Last years event saw the Federal artillery taking center stage on Saturday, first with a full
battery demo for the spectators, then our battery getting overrun by real VMI after their
long march. Saturday's tactical also saw the artillery in a prominent position.
New Market is a rare event where we occupy original gun emplacements and get to fight
on hallowed ground. For those of you that have not been here for a while, things have gotten
better, cut grass, and more Porto-Johns to name a few.
It Is My Honor To Remain Your Most Humble And Obedient Servant
