This is the homesite of the Western Pennsylvania Civil War Reenactors' Society. The group is also known as the 10th Pennsylvania Volunteer Reserve Corps, Company G. That's the military designation of an actual unit from the Civil War that we honor through our service to community.
The group is made up of Military and Civilian Reenactors and their families.
Hopefully you'll find more useful information about our group as you read through the pages of this website.
The photo to the right (I meant the other right) comes to us from one of our Kids' Militias that can often be experienced at one of our events.
Our group believes strongly in making the Civil War come to life for the youth. This is evident in the number of school talks that we do each year. In 2011 we provided programs at 10 area schools.
Members of the 10th Pennsylvania Reserves and others will be supporting their brothers of the 9th Pennsylvania Reserves in a Living History Event on April 14 & 15 on the battlefield at Gettysburg.
The Union forces will be encamped at the Pennsylvania Monument and will be operating under the direction of the National Park Service.
