We would like everyone to know that we will be donating a portion of the funds and also setting up a donation box for The Greatest Generations Foundation. This foundation sends veterans to the areas they once fought in so many are going for the last time for WWII. It's only right to give something back to those who served.
Please visit their website at http://www.tggf.us/ and hopefully everyone will be able to help just a little.

Registration has begun. Units (Soviet and Soviet Allies in Balkans) who is wanting to attend needs to contact the WWIILHA. German units have already been invited so please if doing German do not email due to German units closed. If you are not registered you will not be allowed access to the event.

This will be my first visit to Newville and I am VERY excited to be attending the event!  I've heard wonderful things about the site.

I'm curious, what vendors will be attending?  I would like to pick up a few things to flesh out my Soviet impression, as well as begini work on my Luftwaffe Felddivision 'secondary' impression.
