Many years ago I participated in English Civil War renactments- I was a Cavalier ( of course!!) Great fun and as a 16th/17th century history buff- gave me quite a connection to past events...

All the best Gina

He wanted me join the military my whole life (clearly I'm not military material haha) He loves history and all that entails. But he's also the one who got me into riding as a child and he took me to all my lessons and paid for everything for so many years. If I did that he would be absolutely ecstatic! We'll keep in touch!!!

At 6:29pm on January 12, 2012, Quinn Powell said…: Hi Gary,

Thanks for the link to the site. It looks very interesting and I will have to look more into it. I think distance would prevent me from joining, but it looks like fun! Im going to keep an eye on your schedule and check it out when you are in my area.

I also noticed the bugle. My Dad was in the Canadian reserves and had one just like it.

I am in northern BC.

At 10:02am on November 27, 2011, Laurie Ann Burdock said…: Hi Gary,

Thank you for the lovely note on what you do with your horses. I think distance precludes my involvement but it sure sounds fun!

I will certainly check out your site.

There are no organized horse activities in my area so I am usually on my own.

Thanks for the introduction, I'll check out your site!

Alternatively, here is a link to my site (I am real estate agent focusing on horse people and horse properties)! http://www.bevansargent.ca

At 9:09pm on November 21, 2011, B. G. Hearns said…: Hi, Gary. Thanks for the comment & invite. In fact, about 20 years ago, I was part of another U.S. Civil War & Fenian Raid re-enactment group, an infantry regiment based out of Newmarket. I'd probably join your outfit if I weren't already riding and training with the Governor General's Horse Guards.
Besides their musical ride, we also do skill-at-arms training, tent-pegging, and some World War 1 cavalry demonstrations.
I'll keep you in mind, if I decide to get back into reenacting.

But I will make sure I come up in August weekend to see you. Hopefully I won't be showing or at a dressage show. Let me know what times you will be at Heritage Park on those dates.
Cheers

I think this is neat. I haven't seen pictures like these since Gone with the Wind. I think it beats, hanging around the pub drinking beer. Although I suspect a good pint would go good afterwards.

I see by your schedule you will be in Milton in August. I live in Milton and would love to go over and see you guys. I will try and note on my calendar the dates, so that I don't forget. I bet the horses just love what you do. They look so anxious to get going.

Where do you guys get together to do this?
Mary-Joe
