If anyone in the New England area is looking for something to do on the 3rd and 4th, consider checking out Old Sturbridge Village, a fantastic museum at any time, but the first weekend in August is it's annual Revolutionary War reenactment. I figure that it could cross the various interests of some of our members here between the history, firearms, military etc. Aside from the reenactment displays, OSV has a decent collection of late 18th Century and early 19th Century muzzleloading flint and percussion pieces on display. I'll be there with my artillery group talking with folks on the various pieces of artillery we'll have on display, always a good event and fun for everyone.
