Notes of Appreciation

From Scott Bragunier, organizer of the "Retreat from Gettysburg" reenactment, Williamsport, MD, July 13 - 15, 2012.

THE PLEASURE WAS ALL MINE! You guys were a class act and truly showed that you folks are professionals of your hobby.

I had a great weekend but the highlight for me was the ball in the barn.

From Bob Dollenger, after the dance at the Luray Caverns reenactment, August 17 - 19, 2012.

Just wanted to thank you once again for putting on such a wonderful dance! The band that you work with is second to none, and you did an awesome job doing the calling. This is my third year doing reenactments, and I must say that it truly was a treat being in Luray with everybody.

From Stacey Nadeau, Supervisor of Historical Interpretation at New Market Battlefield and avid dancer, November, 2013.
