CIVIL WAR RE-ENACTMENT

The Civil War Re-enactment in Huntington Beach Central Park is a blast, literally! The annual two-day event includes cannon blasts, fiddlers, banjos, flutes, drums, festive costumes, troop encampments and booths where hoop skirts and military period costumes were sold. It is held on Labor Day Weekend and includes excitement, gun battles and patriotic services. Huntington Beach Civil War Days Reenactment 2011 is set to commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War. 


Here are some photos i took during the said event.
