More from Battle Road

The latest saga in the Battle Road Love-Fest is a change of plans about allowing sutlers or not. My good friend Steve just let me know about his experience in dealing with intricacies of the Park Service. After a long delay, the Park Service sent out sutler registration forms with a $50 processing fee. Last week, the NPS told all the sutlers that the forms were no longer acceptable and that there would be no sutlers allowed this year. Just yesterday he was told that there is a new form to fill out with a $250 fee! So don't look for sutlers at Battle Road this year.....there won't be any.
This seems to be the path of the course for this event with their super exclusive Praetorian Guard at the entrance gates waiting to turn away reenactors without the proper stitching in their coats and their farcical policies and guidlines on what is forbidden and what is deemed acceptable by Those In Charge. So fuck you all very much and have a nice event.
