Revolutionary War Reenactment
November 12, 2022 - November 13, 2022
As seen in the Palmetto Flyer, there is a Revolutionary War re-enactment scheduled for 12-13 Nov 2022 near Camden, SC, and Capt Nason, aka Captain/Colonel
Volunteers may support one or both days and duties primarily include directing traffic, directing parking, crowd control during the battle, and policing up cartridges after the battle. However, if we have enough volunteers, then we will have time for members to walk around the camp to interact with re-enactors, learn about life in the late 1700s, and purchase food/souvenirs.
Additionally, members are invited to camp overnight which will allow you to witness the Guy Fawkes parade and bonfire, as well as very impressive night firings of the cannon (including the infamous "Boots"). Campers must bring their own tent, sleeping bags (it can get below freezing in Nov), toiletries, and change of clothes for the next day. We will provide food for dinner and breakfast (basic including hot dogs, chips, soda, Gatorade, & s'mores for dinner, and coffee/hot cocoa, muffins, Pop Tarts for breakfast) but request a $10 donation to help cover the costs.
If you are interested in volunteering to support this event, please complete the questionnaire at the link below NLT COB Thursday 10 Nov. Big things we need are at least 2 SMs for 2-deep leadership (each day as well as camping) and to know what days you want to volunteer, if you need transportation, and if you intend to camp overnight. Cadets who are 17 years of age or under also need to provide a CAPF 60-80 permission slip (attached) NLT departure for the event.

Once we have the registration confirmed, I will send out reporting instructions with contact information as well as the finalized ORM. I have supported this event 4 times in past, including camping once, and it has been a blast every single time. I've also learned a ton about the Revolutionary War battles, about soldiers from both sides, about life during that period, and more importantly about Capt Nason's 18th Century alter ego. Please let me know if you have any questions about signing up or supporting the event, and contact Capt Nason is you have specific questions about the event
