The Cincinnati Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution has been invited to make our Revolutionary War Presentations to a group of Young Marines on Saturday, 2 November.
Times:
- Muster time for our Color Guard team is 1100 hours
- Lunch for Color Guard and Living History presenters is at 1130.
- Living History Presentations start at 1230.
Our goal is to provide four American History presenters doing two 20 – 25 minute presentations each.
Our Color Guard will also fire muskets (blanks of course!).
Our goal is to have a number of SAR participants to make the presentations more impressive. Non-presenters will be free to leave after the demonstration.
If you want to participate or have any questions, please reach out to Jason Bourgeois or Bob Bowers.
