*In the coming New Year, 2012, both
Groundhog Day and the State of the
Union address will occur on the same day.**
This is an ironic juxtaposition of events.
One involves a meaningless ritual in which
we look to an insignificant
creature of little intelligence for prognostication
The other involves a groundhog.*

What part of "shall not be infringed"
do you NOT understand?

Lake Villa Event -
Shutting Down |
From:
lake-villa-civil-war-days-committee
Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2011 11:34 AM
To:
lSubject: Follow Up Meeting
To All Of You Who Have
Served On The Lake Villa Civil War Days
Committee,
By now I have relayed the
news to each of you that the Lake Villa
Historical Society Board of Directors has determined that the
9th
Annual Lake Villa Civil War Days event was the final one for
Lake
Villa. While Civil War reenactors are hardy and will endure any
weather conditions, the public is not as forgiving. We have to
depend
on them for our profit margin. Our expenses still have to be
paid
rain or shine. That also means setting aside enough money
before an
event to pay expenses regardless of potential income. The
expense of
hosting this event continues to increase each year. We can no
longer
financially support it.
We will try to get the
official thank you out to this year's
participants as soon as possible and include an official
notification
regarding the discontinuation of this event.
Best wishes to each of you
as you continue to share your hobby and
enlighten the public on the history of the Civil War.
Sincerely,
Sue and the LVHS Board of
Directors

After 25 years of publication, the Haversack is shutting down the presses and
ceasing publication. I have enjoyed the past years and regret having this
come to an end. My thanks to those who have supported me in the past.

See you on the field, and be safe out there
The Haversack will continue as an on-line version
as best as the team of Martin & Hargreaves can do.
Saucy Schimenti
returns and offers us some historical perspective, trivia and other
little known facts.
Does anyone know who Saucy is?
