Join Logan's Company
- We'd like to have you join our unique hobby as a member of our
company. Joining a military re-enactment unit may seem
intimidating but we will make it as easy and as inexpensive as possible
for you. Join us for any weekend event on our schedule, let us know
in advance where you'd like to meet us, and we will provide you with
clothing, a place to sleep, food, accoutrements, and a musket. You
will be introduced to military camp life of the 18th century. This
hobby is not limited to men-at-arms. We encourage you to bring your
spouse and/or family into this hobby with you. After joining us for
a weekend and you feel inclined to join, your basic clothing,
accoutrements, and arms should consist of the following:
