2012 Schedule
Events in which the USNLP will take part
(Independent local talks and presentations as desired by members throughout the year)
NOTE:
The USNLP, although primarily based in the Northeast, recruits
nationally and has pockets of members in several locations across the country.
The schedule reflects this and members from one region should not feel required
to travel halfway across the country to attend every USNLP event. Know also that
this schedule is subject to last-minute change; as a visitor to an event, you
should contact the USNLP just before a reenactment to verify that said event is
still "on" for us. Our events are divided into living
history/reenactments, ceremonies, concerts,
and talks by individual crew members..
