I'm guessing you've clicked the Reenactments link at the top left of this page?

That's a good place to find reenactments.

I work in the manufacturing industry and I love photography. I took my family down to Andersonville over Labor Day weekend. I grew up in the west and I have always been interested in our countries history. I would like to put a concept photo together using the prison and the cemetary. The only problem is that I do not have any contacts within the renactment groups. This is for personal use on my website and not for publishing purposes. I cannot offer cash payment for participation but I can offer a printed and electronic image to all of those who participate.

Needs:

2 or more Confederate soldiers

5 or more Union soldiers

If you are interested in working with me please let me know. Here is a sample of my work and one of the places I would like to do the shoot.

Hi,
    I am hopefully one day a newbie to civil war reenacting. I have a bit of a situation. I have a fairly decent size of wanting to become reenactors that would like to start our own group. The reason for this is we cannot find any local reenactors in our area.  I have read and read every form of literature I can get my hands on but as of right now i just feel as my head is spinning. The problem is we have researched a couple of actual units and so on but cannot find anything that suites the majority of the group. We have a wide variey of gender,age, and physical ability. I need to know if anyone has any suggestions for me ? Am I possibly over looking an easy way of doing this besides joing another unit?Any info would be greatly appreciated. If this matters, at this time the men voted reenacting men from CSA . So I would assume some form of any group from that time period. So far Calvary is out. Thank You!

The 148th New York Volunteer Infantry Reenactment Group is aggressively seeking new members to replenish its ranks from 40+years of parades, battle reenactments and living histories. We are a family friendly organization that strives to portray, as authentically as possible, the life of the northern Civil War soldier. We are primarily looking for those that wish to portray the 148th New York soldier however, persons/families that wish to portray civilians would also be welcomed. Also, any persons wishing to be a musician/drummer would be welcomed.
A brief history of the 148th New York, dubbed the "gallant 148th" that you would be a member of:

Raised in the summer of 1862 as part of President Lincoln's call for an additional 300,000 men to suppress the rebellion, the 148th New York filled its ranks primarily with men from Yates, Seneca, and Ontario counties, the Finger Lakes Region of the great state of New York. Seeing mostly garrison duty in the area of Norfolk,VA during its first year of service, the 148th New York went on to forge an outstanding reputation for gallantry in such actions as Fair Oaks, Cold Harbor, Petersburg, Chaffins Farm, Drewry's Bluff, Rice's Station, Burke's Station, and Appomattox Court House. the 148th saw 5 of its members win the Congressional Medal of Honor during its time of service.
We still have many more events slated for the 2008 season. If you are interested in becoming a member or just talking about the Civil War and/or this regiment from Western New York, please contact us today. I hope to have our website up and running by the winter of this year. Until then, please email me at  cgavette23@gmail.com

     one also needs to be aware that there are different styles of reenacting.  we have mainstream events with soldiers only.  we have events which are family friendly, including wives and children, and we have campaign events which only include reenactors no spectators.  also there are events where campaign style is the way to go   you use only what you can carry on you and is period specific   the recent event up at picketts mills was one such event.  reenactors had to report by 11 am on friday and did not see their cars or other things until sunday after the event was over.  one has to choose which style one wants to emulate or impress.]]> Tue, 03 Jun 2008 13:46:02 +0000 http://www.reenactmenthq.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3&PID=10#10
