Battle of Plattsburgh Cruise — 9/09/2006
MBBC is also planning this event

Each year on the second weekend of September, Plattsburgh and the surrounding area echo to the sound of musket and cannon fire as re-enactors in period costume from the United States and Canada lock horns in a reenactment of the 1814 Battle of Plattsburgh.

This festival celebrates the American victory over the English Navy in this famous battle of September 11, 1814 American and Canadian re-enactors do battle again as this dramatic re-creation of the Battle of Plattsburgh unfolds before your very eyes. There is a parade, concerts, tavern, exhibits, lectures and much more.

See http://www.battleofplattsburgh.com/2006schedule1.html for more information about the weekend activities. This is a joint rendezvous with MBBC. I suggest renting dock space so you can visit the activities on shore. I’ll bring the club cannon just in-case we have to help fight the British fleet, again!
