31 - Doyle Days 100th Anniversary, (CCWR will run the jail)
Doyle, CA
We need to be at the site by 9Am to set up – opening at 10Am with the parade.
(See directions below)
We have 2 wall tents and 1 A-tent and if we have enough help the Civilian fly can be set up.
Lunch will be provided.
CCWR is covered under our regular insurance w/out a rider as the normal event insurance does not cover weapons use.
Regina has made the signs for warrants and demonstrations and their prices and bail. She has also made the warrants.
Our job is to arrest anyone who is not wearing a Doyle Days Button and charge them $1 bail. We have a JALE (Doyle spelling) to incarcerate the guilty.
We have other warrants that can be bought to arrest the public for a long list of infractions including but not limited to obvious flirting, womanizing, sedition, spying, treason, gambling and so on. These warrants are more expensive and carry the death penalty-choice of firing squad or cannon. These also carry a bail charge to enact and to get out of.
We will also charge for other activities.
This will be a FUN day.
There is a street dance (not Civil War)in the evening for any that want to attend.
DIRECTIONS:
Take Hwy 295 north to Doyle. As you enter Doyle you will go over a bridge over the RR tracks. Immediately after that crossing turn right.
Go approximately ½ mile and you will see the triangular park on the left.
Our site is across from the park between an old deserted gas station and a bar. This is the location of the JAEL and where we will set up.
One of our members Lyn Haynes, is a mover and shaker for this event and is counting on us to support her.

Please print out (front and back) and complete the 2010

your unit commanders to process them Saturday morning.
The tests and rules are on the CCWR website CLICK HERE.
Anyone "taking the field" will need to take the General Safety
AND Infantry test. If they plan to work a cannon, then it's those 2 tests
AND the Artillery tests.
In addition, all CCWR approved horses and riders must take both of the equine tests.
Civilians only need to take the General Safety test.
Please see your respective company commanders or
battalion officers for more info.
In the Comstock Civil War Reenactors, one has the opportunity to recreate portions of the past in ways that help the spectator and participant alike to discover and learn more about their history and the people who lived it. Folks from all walks of life participate in the CCWR. The reenactors don authentically reproduced clothing and uniforms, shoulder period muskets, cook over open fires, sleep in canvas tents and participate in battle reenactments and civilian life. Some even speak in the dialect of the era - we call it Living History.
The Comstock Civil War Reenactors is a private, non-profit, educational organization that uses Living History as means of helping the public gain a better understanding of the American Civil War and how it help shape the country we live in today.
The American Civil War, fought from 1861-1865, is a pivotal moment in the history of the United States. With a flash of the Officer's sword, followed by the command "Attention Company", you begin your journey back in time and experience life as a soldier of the American Civil War.
The military wing of the CCWR is comprised of both Union and Confederate forces, including infantry, calvary and artillery. Both the Union and Confederate Brigades are recreations of actual regiments and companies that fought in the American Civil War.
The Civilian and Non-Combatant Corps attempts to show people how the civilian population lived while the war took place, the suffering of displaced Confederate women and children, the northern homefront, and the civilian social and medical organizations that supported the troops in the field.
