REENACTOR INFORMATION

I am pleased do announce Acton II at the Thousand trails RV park in Acton. This is a great site with plenty of shade and green grass to camp and do battle on. In typical California tradition there will be water in the cement ponds and stream.

Horses:    Are permitted. We will have hay available. Need to know if you are coming.

Artillery: Room for 6 cannons maximum of 3 per side.

 Food:       Will be sold on site, last year the lines were quite long in their cafeteria for Saturday night but the food was outstanding and fairly priced. There are restaurants in Acton just a short drive away and fast food at the Fwy interchange

 Dance:     Saturday night is on with the Occasion strings and our own Tom Atkins calling.

 Sutlers:    All are invited and there is plenty of flat shady space. Please contact Paul De Nubilo at denubilo@adelphia.net  for more information

Non ACWS Non ACWS members are invited. Non PACWR affiliated association members need to register and sign the release. See your brigade commander for instructions.

RV parking will be provided free, if available, to reenactors, they will be hook up sites but they are limited. To reserve a site call me 805 497-7020, or e-mail me at denubilo@adelphia.net

 Directions: From Highway 14, take the Crown Valley Rd South to Acton. Pass through Acton, cross the tracks, bear right at the Y, go under the bridge and the park is on the left. Look for the entry sign.
