Battle at Murdock's Farm, Winchendon Mass

capt cotton's picture

One of the last encampments of the Season. This is promising to be the highlight of the 2007 season. At present it looks as if the Confederates are outnumbers again by about 2:1. The 29th Georgia would gladly take anyone who would like to help fill the ranks. This will be a tactical with a public battle. Fee is $7. Reports say it is a great site with enough land for a national event.

Would be glad to have you

Steve,
I'll put you on the registration. This looks like it might be a fun event and the company could sure use the manpower as the Federal forces are appear to be 2:1 in numbers. The invite is open to all. I have the resources to outfit anyone who would like to go grey on this one. Unlined Jackets can be made in a few hours for just $25 dollars, w/o buttons or $35 with. Just let me know as soon as possible so a Jacket can be fitted. Kepis for about $10. I do have a few loaner jackets as well.
