| Rules and Guidelines for Inside and Outside of Fort Moultrie, Fort Sumter, Civilians and Unit Portrayals & Registration Forms. |
The 150th Firing Anniversary is not a reenactment but is a living history. Guidelines will vary for each site
with the most strict guidelines inside of Fort Moultrie and Fort Sumter. I will attempt to publish as many
details and contacts on this page as possible. A link to overall registration is below. Each site coordinator
may have additional fees for rations, etc.

A Week of Living Histories |
| CIVILIANS Camping for Authentic Civilian Impressions will be limited to 85 people at Patriots Point and Mr. Fred Tetor has gotten permission to use a field across from Liberty Square in downtown Charleston. We can accept up to 50 civilians and 50 militia. Jean Hutchinson and Mary Hatcher are the Civilian contacts for Patriots Point and also for other areas. The firing on Fort Sumter was a spectacle and civilians lined the battery, roof tops, and anyplace that had a view. Civilians staying at Patriots Point will need to register using the above site.

They must wear shoes like tennis, running/walking, deck, etc. they have a good rubber, or similar, sole. If t hey do not have these shoes they do not go to Fort Sumter. |
