MARCH DRILL CANCELLED!! SEE YOU IN APRIL!

Formed in 1995, the CHAMPLAIN VALLEY HISTORICAL REENACTORS is a non-profit living history organization dedicated to the authentic portrayal of Vermonters through time. Although most of us concentrate on the period of the American Civil War, various members have created military and civilian impressions from the early colonial period, the French and Indian War, the American Revolution, the Spanish American War, World War I and II. We are proud of our history and welcome opportunities to educate the public about our past. In addition, we invite interested and committed individuals to join our organization.

*During the Civil War, Vermont gave more lives in proportion to the number of soldiers and population than any other state in the union. General Sedgewick's order to the Vermont Brigade during the Union Army VI Corps grueling march to Gettysburg in late June of 1863, "Put the Vermonters ahead and keep the column well closed up," best describes the effort and support provided by Vermont during the rebellion. Vermont's participation in the battles of Gettysburg, Wilderness, and Cedar Creek were especially significant.
