Mount Harmon Revolutionary War Reenactment

Continental Line Event

A Call to Arms!

The second big battle of the year is coming!
October 25, 2014 - October 26, 2016

Mount Harmon is once again hosting a full scale Revolutionary War Re-enactment & Colonial Festival, featuring nearly 1,000 re-enactors, complete with British & Rebel Encampments, military skirmishes, tactical demonstrations, a colonial marketplace, and much more!

The Fixed Regiment of Spanish Louisiana plans on fielding the cannon, which needs a minimum crew of 5 artillerists, but would be better served with a least 6 or 7. The Regiment needs maximum participation to man the gun.

This is a must attend event for the Regiment's cannon! The Seventh Virginia is sponsoring our Artillery unit impression for full Continental Line membership and it is imperative that the Fixed Regiment of Spanish Louisiana Artillery unit attend the Continental Line events.

The Regiment is also planning to field Infantry of the Line at this event and would like as many fusiliers as possible to attend.

The Regiment is calling for MAXIMUM PARTICIPATION at this Continental Line event!

Please send an email to laregt1776@gmail.com by August 20, 2014 to let us know if you are coming. Please put "Mount Harmon Plantation Event" in the subject line and indicate in your email if you are infantry, artillery or distaff and whether you plan on staying in a hotel or in camp.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at Mount Harmon Plantation!

Battle of the Hook

10/18/2013

A call to arms!

A grand Revolutionary War reenactment, the Battle of the Hook, is coming!

The event is happening October 18-20, 2013 and the Regiment is scheduled to attend. Part of the 1781 Yorktown Campaign, the weekend will be filled with historic battles that will be brought to life on the property of the Inn at Warner Hall in Gloucester, VA.

This is a Continental Line, British Brigade, and Brigade of the American Revolution sponsored event.
It will be big! It will be filled with activities! It will be fun!

The Fixed Regiment of Spanish Louisiana plans on fielding both Infantry of the Line and the cannon. The cannon needs a minimum crew of 5 and we would like to field at least 10-15 infantry.

There will be a period tavern set up adjacent to the camp areas that will be open to reenactors for our Saturday night jollification, with games, drinks, and good cheer. The tavern will be manned by reenactor distaff during the day interpreting for the public, with tavern games, and perhaps some light refreshments.

Please send an email to laregt1776@gmail.com by October 10, 2013 to let us know if you are coming. Please put "Battle of the Hook" in the subject line and indicate in your email if you are infantry, artillery or distaff and whether you plan on staying in a hotel or in camp.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
