About the Lake George Tactical 2007
Dear all,
I know this will look remarkably like my tooting Chauncey's horn and I admit that there is some of that in this posting. I want to share with you a recent email that went out to the participants of the Lake George Tactical (the premier reenacting event for "hard core" reenactors).
Strictly FYI.
YH&OS,
Sarah / Chauncey
Gentlemen,
Although it doesn't seem like it with the hot weather these days, it's time to start planning for the Lake. Earlier this year I put out the word that I would like to have someone new take the reins on the British side this year. I still plan to be there and will support in all manner possible, but I think it would be good for others to gain some command experience as well as bring some fresh ideas to the event. I had several volunteers, some more reluctant than others, but in the end I chose the person with the most experience on the Lake -LT Chauncey Goodrich. LT Goodrich has served as LT of Rogers' Rangers and my second for a couple of years and I expect will do an excellent job this year. To that end, I am going to turn over all pre-event coordination at this point to him.
As always, the event is the week of Columbus day (8th – 12th) in October. This is a preliminary call to arms. Please talk to your units, pass this to your friends, etc., and get back to the LT. Once he has a feel for who will be going, we can establish a command structure and start disseminating specific information. As in the past, I expect LT Goodrich will encourage you to come and fight as your own, autonomous unit. The commander's role is to provide overall coordination of the event. If you or any of your men want to participate but are unable to do so as a unit, we encourage you to come as individuals and we will coordinate with you to get you hooked up with another unit. We need men of all talents whether it be leading a patrol, scouting by canoe, or protecting the camp. I have enjoyed the honor of fighting alongside many of you in the past and am looking forward with great anticipation to having you join us in making the Lake George Tactical a great experience this year.
General information, along with after-action reports from the past several years, is available at: http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif .
The event officially starts Tuesday morning (after all the leaf peepers have gone) and goes through mid-day Friday. If you would like to extend your time at the Lake, coming in early is certainly an option. I anticipate that LT Goodrich will disseminate further information shortly. I respectfully request that you contacht LT Goodrich at your earliest convenience and let him know what your intentions are and, as always, we want to keep any plans from here on out off the egroups and just in private emails. I also ask that you pass along this invitation to all that you feel appropriate. The LT's email address is [removed].
