Here is the schedule for 2009 August Shiloh. Note that we will drill at 10:30 am on Saturday and that will last about 15 minutes, then immediately we'll roll into the uniform issue demo. No it's not on the schedule however, it's on the plan. 

If anyone has sources to a style of saddle OTHER than the McClellan please let us know and bring it. If you are willing to discuss its differences, let me know- if you'd rather someone else speak about it, we can do that, but need advanced notice.

We'll need help on this one, talking about the various breeds used, the tack and the care (especially on campaign). ANYONE who can help with this demo is needed!!!! Let me know please!
