PARTICIPANT REGISTRATION 205th Anniversary Annual Commemoration of the Battles of the Raisin Mark your calendar for January 20, 2018 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Held at the River Raisin National Battlefield
Park Visitor Center
Please be aware no Black Powder is allowed inside the Building
All participants will be required to complete a Volunteer
in the Park (VIP) form. PARTICIPANT INVITATION DEAR FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS,
The 205th anniversary
commemoration of the Battle of the River Raisin will be held in Monroe,
Michigan, on Saturday, January 20, 2018.
Following past patterns, the day will begin with a mid-morning
tactical demonstration followed by ceremonies at the River Raisin
Battlefield Visitor Center, and end with an early afternoon
presentations at the Monroe County Historical Museum.
As is our custom, we will be offering
re-enactors a hearty luncheon at St. Paul’s Church.
To help us prepare, we ask that you send in the following
pre-registration form.
It is thanks to dedicated re-enactors like
you that we have been able to hold the Commemoration on the site of the
Battle of the River Raisin every year since 1990.
In all those years, there was only one cancellation, due to a
rather nasty blizzard.
All during that time, your knowledge and
passion have continued to be of enormous benefit to our local community
and to the staff of the River Raisin National Battlefield Park.
We hope you can participate this coming year, and we are all
looking forward to seeing you. Sincerely, Ralph Naveaux Rusty Davis ---------------------------------------------------- |
Join the many participants from Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and Canada, along with Native Americans and residents of Monroe Michigan as we remember this bloody battle and massacre that took place on January 22nd and 23rd, 1813. The commemoration is held on the very ground along the River Raisin where hundreds of lives were lost protecting our freedom in the early years of the United States.
