Hello Fellow Fanatics,
I need an idea of how many would be interested in this event ……
I would like to set up a long weekend here in Berkshire county, Western Mass.
All fanatics are invited.
I have connections with the Eastover Resort,..(
www.eastover.com ) we can get a special rate that would include meals and your room. I suggest checking out the web site,.. very interesting estate.
We would start on a Thursday with a cruise thru the south Berkshires, visit the Norman Rockwell Museum, travel up RT8 passing towns forgotten by time. Circling back to the resort for dinner and a relaxing night in the mansion.
Friday we pack in a great breakfast and track up to north county and southern Vermont for a run thru the farms and Green mountains. Stopping at some road stands on the way. We will climb the newly paved road leading to the summit of Mt Greylock for a photo opp. This road is a gradual grade, great views!
Saturday, another filling breakfast then the grounds of Eastover will come alive with re-enactments of the civil war,.. I will arrange for a regiment from the north east with a possible 800-1000 actors.
(Im setting this up, I thought I would give you all the first heads up)
I will have maps of local sites for self directed events.
We return to the mansion for another dinner.
Sunday, we enjoy our last breakfast. Say our G’bye’s and head off home.
Date will be sometime next summer,.. price will be reasonable .. depending on the turnout… the more that come,.. the better the rate.
The re-enactment will be open to the public on Saturday, Our SSRs will have preferential parking away from the public.
Please respond if your interested.
Have a great Day
Wild Bill
