BATTLE OF RICHMOND REENACTMENT

 

DATES: Saturday/Sunday, Aug. 23-24, 2008

SPONSORED BY: • Madison Bank

• The Battle of Richmond Association

  

A two-day reenactment

BORA dates set for 2008 

The Battle of Richmond Association's seventh annual reenactment of the Battle of Richmond has been scheduled for Aug. 23-24, 2008. Those reenactors wishing to participate should call (895-248-1974), or e-mail Paul Rominger pdrominger@netscape.net as soon as possible to receive registration materials.

 

There are few Civil War battlefields left intact today as time and encroachment from subdivisions and developments have taken many of the most important sites. The land designated for the reenactment of the Battle of Richmond 2008 is unique in that the Battle of Richmond Association (BORA) enables you to experience a reenactment on a portion of the original battlefield that is relatively unchanged since the dates of the conflict, Aug. 29-30, 1862.

 

To take advantage of this opportunity, it's important to understand and accept the purpose of the event and the expectations of  BORA.  The primary purpose of the Richmond reenactment is to recreate, on a small scale, the events of the Battle of Richmond for the education and entertainment of the participants and spectators.

 

We welcome you to participate as we attempt to portray these events as accurately as possible, consistent with the available space, personnel, historic information, and other resources.

 

NOTE:  A representative from the Kentucky Department of Agriculture will be present at the Reenactment Registration Tent to inspect current Coggins and health papers for all horses.  Both documents must be available in order for horses to enter the park and participate in the reenactment.

 

COGGINS, HEALTH CERTIFICATE REQUIRED
Coggins tests must be dated within the last 12 months.  A health certificate (Certificate of Veterinary Inspection) is required for all horses, even those traveling from within Kentucky.  The health certificate must be dated within 150 days for horses traveling from inside Kentucky, and within 30 days for horses traveling from outside Kentucky.
