We would like to say thank you to all the businesses that assisted in making Reenactor Appreciation Weekend in 2009 a success for the fourth year running. We could not have added the World War II dance featuring Gettysburg’s own The Gettysburg Big Band without your support. This brought many WWII reenactors to town in addition to the Civil War reenactors who have attended in previous years bringing our total participation to between 300 and 400 reenactors for the weekend; we hope to double this number with your assistance in 2010. We’ve already started spreading the word, and our visitors from last year are looking forward to coming back!
As we are in the planning stages of the fifth year we realize the economy continues to affect everyone. We are not untouched, our budgetary inflows have declined while our expenditures continue to remain the same or increase. In the past we have been supported by the Gettysburg Convention and Visitors Bureau as well as the State of Pennsylvania’s Department of Tourism. As we all know the state’s budget has been undecided and the result of this is a major reduction in tourism monies. If we are to continue this wonderful event for the fifth year, once again we need to reach out to our friends.
We invite you to join us by becoming a sponsor of this extraordinary event. Reenactor Appreciation Weekend is important not only because it is the first event of the year, but because it shows our appreciation for the people who help bring our nation’s extraordinary history alive with their devoted passion and commitment. This year we are bringing back the WWII Big Band Dance as well as the Civil War grand ball, the Victorian ladies tea, the gentlemen’s cigar and brandy, book signings, and seminars. We will have a printed program available with a complete list of events and sponsors for distribution at the time of the event.
Please show your support for the event with free admission or discounted rates to your venue, an open house or special event geared toward reenactors of all eras, and/or offer special pricing for lodging, dining and other novelties.
We also have space available for vendor tables at the 2-day low rate of just $50.00 for Friday and Saturday per table. That’s just $25.00 a day! And with a Weekend Friend sponsorship, you can advertise your business or orgaization on our website as well as in the event program to let people know you will be there. Take advantage of indoor space to show your products or information, for more information contact us at info@reenactorsrock.com.
Sign up today and benefit from advertising on our web site and in our event program! Any contribution is certainly welcome and needed. We also hope you will show further support for the event with additional contributions of gift certificates and/or gift cards. Random drawings for the gift certificates and gift cards will be held during the showcase events throughout the weekend.
