Rose Hill Manor Civil War Days July 13th and 14th 2008
I just wanted to thank all of you who participated in our 6th Annual Civil War Encampment for making this event an enjoyable weekend for all. We had over 900 visitors for the weekend and look forward to welcoming even more as sesquicentennial celebrations increase enthusiasm for our Civil War heritage.
After surveying many of you about the possibility of switching weekends as well as checking on other local events I think we would run into more conflicts with other events if we switched weekends so we will be planning again for the 2nd weekend in July. Please mark your calendars for July 9 & 10, 2011 and start spreading the word
I would appreciate any suggestions you may have and as always please send me any feedback regarding how we can improve the event for next year.
Thank you for your continued commitment.
I look forward to seeing you again in 2011.
