After Action Report Marilla Civil War Days

 

To keep with tradition we had a rain filled Saturday.  All was not lost, as the Battle went on schedule with the Union being over powered by the Confederates.  The Union suffered a terrible defeat with many casualties to report.

 

A short photo session was introduced after the battle to let the spectators mingle with their favorite characters. This was very popular with the few hundred spectators in attendance.

 

Sunday turned out to be a spectacular day with sunny blue skies and moderate temperatures.  The union acquired necessary reinforcements for day two of the Battle of Marilla. The Confederates faught strong and hard but could not withstand the firepower of Union carbine supplied infantry.  The Union pulled off a decisive victory taking several prisoners including their commanding officer Col.Turner.  During the battle a Confederate Private refused to take orders from a commanding officer and deserted his unit.  He was later captured and brought up on charges of desertion and failing to take orders from a commanding officer. Private Hogan 28 of the 52nd North Carolina appeared at court marshal, and was found guilty as charged. Private Hogan was sentenced to death by firing squad which was carried out at 2:08 pm July 12, 1863.  Condolences go out to his wife Barb.

 

July 4, 2009

Independence Day in the United States.  We are celebrating by participating in our local parade. Our theme is Recruitment during the during the American Civil War. Joining us today will be President Lincoln and General Custer.  We have to remember our soldiers that fought to keep our nation whole. Our parade draws an enormous amount of people lining the parade route from start to finish.  Go out and watch a parade today they are great fun.

 

June 28, 2009

Marilla Civil War Days announces the Music lineup for Saturday July 11,2009

 

12:00pm - 1:00pm  

Hutchinson's Revival will awe you with their fantastic harmonies, singing songs from the past.  If you like 19th Century vocal music you have to see this group.

 

6:30pm - 7:30pm 

The Irish volunteers take the field with their 19th century Celtic style Civil War Music. This group was very impressive with their selections when they performed at the 5th Annual Civil War Days. If you want to hear a sampling of their music you can go to their website "The Irish Volunteers"  You can also find them on Facebook  Come out to this free concert at Marilla Town Park on July 11.

The Irish Volunteers Civil War Band is a Western
NY based four piece group. All four members have
long backgrounds in Celtic and folk music. They
arrived on the Civil War and period scene in 2007.
Since then they have delighted audiences at
reenactments that include Amherst, Marilla,
Peterboro and the Civil War Music Heritage Weekend
in the Catskills among others.

 

8:00pm - 11:00pm

A Civil War Period Dance featuring City Fiddle a well known 19th century group will perform your classic favorites.  If you have never been to a late 1800's old fashion hoedown you have to check this out.  It is square dancing at its best, complete with a caller to help you along the way.  You can come dressed as you are, or if you like, come dressed in period clothes.  I guarantee you will have a great time.  The best part of this whole thing its FREE to attend. You may even see a little skirmish breakout when the guys get a little rambunctious.  Some guys tend to chase the women around and tend to get their husbands upset.  This usually ends up in a shoot-out.

 

10:00 pm

Cannon Firing at night.  If you like fireworks you have to see one of these monsters go off at night.  It is an awesome display of firepower.  Bring your camera to get some spectacular photos for your collection.
