Civil War Days in Wauconda, Illinois

It's the 18th annual Civil War Days in Wauconda at the Lakewood Forest Preserve at the intersection of Fairfield Road and Il. Highway 176, and I'll be there helping to man the Camp Douglas table of the Sons of Confederate Veterans on Saturday and perhaps Sunday July 11th and 12th.

This is a good way to get our name out before the public and to recruit new members as well. Plus, I get my Civil War "thing" on and get some fun immersion.

This is billed as the largest Civil War Re-enactment in Northern Illinois, annually drawing 600 participants from seven states and 5,000 visitors.
