CSS Shenandoah 150th anniversary in Liverpool

http://css-alabama.com/images/sunday-showdown-large.jpg
Over the past two years several Camp events have taken place here in the UK, in fact Southern heritage events have taken place here regularly for over 10 years , but in November a large scale International event will take place here , hosted by both the Clyderunners Camp #2168 and ourselves.

Orchestration of this shall be by Commander J. Wells of Camp 2168 and myself . This will be a two day event to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the CSS Shenandoah arriving in Liverpool and effectively ending hostilities.


All members and interested parties will be kept regularly updated on planning progress. Fund raising will begin almost immediately.

With such advance notice , we should be able to host a large scale event have everything set in stone and well prepared a long time in advance.

Jerry is already making enquiries and new contacts and i shall be contacting all interested and involved parties about this event soon.
