Reenacting is a hobby, but it is a hobby that comes with the responsibility to honor the men and women who struggled during the American Civil War. That is a responsibility that can not be taken lightly.
Very few reenactors can always be perfectly authentic, and at the Daniel Lady Farm we strive to balance comfort and enjoyment with authenticity. As Reenactors, we should take pride in the ability to say to the public, ‘everything you see here is what it would have looked like’ and then use that opportunity to further educate.
The following guidelines are meant as a tool to help you improve your impression. The three-tiered format of Preferred, Acceptable, and Improper are meant to show two different levels of authenticity as well as the items that you should stay away from. We at the Daniel Lady Farm understand the time and expense that goes into an authentic impression, and also greatly appreciate each of you for the effort put into building your impression and remaining 1863 during public hours.
We are not asking for perfection; we are asking that you make a solid effort. Take a moment to review your kit and ask yourself, “Is this authentic for 1863?”
Thank you in advance and we look forward to seeing you soon!
YOS,
