Hi
I was asked at the week end to clarify the situation with regard to NFOE members attending LW events.
There is an open invitation to all of our 1745 Jacobite Rising events. The dates of these can be found on our web site www.lacewars.co.uk
I haven't spoken to Steve (NFOE Chairman) but if we have a date clash then the invitation with be withdrawn as I will not want to steal members from the event they should be going to, this of coarse does not apply to people who are members of both groups!
If you want to come to a LW event you must let me know in adavance so I can put you on the guest list. Your attendance must also be agreed with the event organisor.
You must also have the right kit, or we will loan you stuff. Please do not be offended if I tell you your kit is wrong.
If you have civilian kit you will be put with the Jacobites, but there are spare Redcoat uniforms if you want to go British army.
Women will have to go on the Jacobite camp, unless you portray a soldiers wife and our Redcoats are happy for you to be on their camp.
You are under the command of our officers.
If you attend a lot of our events I would expect you to join the group, as I would expect LW members to join NFOE should the same thing happen (although that is a NFOE decision).
In my view the two groups should work together where ever possible.
Please feel free to put this into your newsletter.
My membership will be in the post
