Attention all those in the Chicagoland region & where ever reachable!

Found out about this from the NWTA forum. Sounds like fun!

Reenactor Fest in St. Charles IL March 10-12 2006

This is a new event for the Chicagoland area. It may prove to be a big

trade show that is close by for many of us. Please see their great

website at: http://www.reenactorfest.com/

Yup... very much so. I'd like to go myself. But ... we shall see. Depends on the price of gas next year though, too.

The Grand Ball I'm sure would be something VERY spectacular! To see many people there dressed in the finest from various eras.

I'm going! If anyone plans to attend this, let's communicate closer to the event...

Let's see... What to wear?

Pirate? Civil War (Yankee)? Civil War (Confederate)? Renaissance? Victorian vampire hunter? Lord of the Rings? Late 20th-century Soviet military? Batman? Klingon? So many eras from which to choose and yet, ironically, so little time...

Well.. something historical that's for sure. :(

Maybe for the ball I will wear my gold gown.

I'm planning on attending that as well. Hopefully I won't be too broke from just getting back from Cowpens SC or have classes that interfer - yep.. going back to school.

I'll most definitely be there for 18th c.. mostly Rev War.

Hawks... I had the honor & pleasure of meeting Clisto last year at Bristol. Spoke with him a couple times online, one of those times was to inform him about the Re-enactors Fest. Figured he would love to go to something like this & to spread the word on this fabulous fest.

I think it will be fabulous! :(

I had a blurb on this event posted in my group's C.W. Reenactor's newsletter.

(actually, forgot I contributed it, then saw it in print, was mad that someone scooped me on this news, and then saw my name credited as the one who submitted it. Must be the beer.)
