Update on the Civil war re-enactment.
When I was told there can be as many as 800-1000 actors, they didnt tell me it took years to build up to that size. The numbers will be substantially lower for this year.
However, they will have a complete camp of actors in an authentic setting. The camp will be open for hands on demonstrations. There will be war re-enactments, canon demonstrations, horse back riding, and more.
Each actor represents actual soldier from the war they will give you the history of their character.
So basically,.. less people, but more detailed and real interesting to the civil war buff.
And,… less chance we have to pull a ˝” slug from the side of our SSRs…lol
(just kidding, our trucks will be parked in a secluded, guarded area, away from the general parking area)
The resort is based around a mid 1800s mansion. The mansion has some rooms that will be available. There are detached buildings that hold the majority of the guests. Each building has a different décor. They are designed from all parts of our country from circa 1860s. There are separate cabins if you like. All rooms (inside the mansion and out) are set up for a perfect vacation weekend.. No TV, No Phone, but very clean and lots of charm. Kind of like a good resort would be back in the 1940s.
You can roam the mansions first floor and basement (upper floors are the guest floors).
There is a wood paneled library with 20 foot high ceilings and a fire place(also has a TV if you feel you need to watch one). The basement has all kinds of indoor games like an indoor pool, pool table, ping pong rooms, darts, bars, karaoke, ect. The largest Private owned civil war collection is there for your entertainment as well.
All for fun,... fun for all
