There will be 100 + merchants, traders and crafts persons displaying their wares and talents

See you there
I feel badly that I do not drive as far as I used to for our events. I was 26 years old in 1975. And Memorial Day weekend this year marks my having been invited to the first encampment I had ever seen. It was at Battleground, Indiana, north of Lafayette and I still have the photo of the Saturday colors ceremony with Paul Block commanding on the right and the 2nd Virginia Regiment approaching their position with the other regiments on the left. Little did I know how much this avocation and historical knowledge would still mean to me after 50 years and being 76 years old now.

Today at the Sheraton Lisle in Naperville, IL folks attending the Little Wars Game Convention have the opportunity to find out about reenacting! A number of the NWTA’s membership are there to talk to interested visitors.
Curious? Stop by Sunday, April 27 from 7 - noon to find out more!
DO YOU KNOW THAT THE FLAGS ON YOUR DISPLAY ARE COMMONLY KNOWN AS "THE BUTCHERS APRON"?
Great pics, all. My father was with the NWTA back in the early days of the 70's. Ask Jim Nawrocki! 😃👍. I remember how monumental it was to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the nation in 1976. If you didn't experience the excitement of that year, 2026 is your chance.
Sorry we will miss this. Arriving into O’Hare just before noon on Sunday
I'd suggest setting up an recruitment tent at the Mackinaw Trade Fair first weekend in August, actually runs from Thrusday through Sunday.
