August 1-3, 2025 - Athens, MO

CANCELLED!!

 Athens battles and reenactment set for Aug 1-3, 2025 has been cancelled.   I wanted to update you on the Athens battle cancellation. The state  changed its rules  and informed us 3 weeks before the reenactment, that  it now required a 2 million dollar liability policy for the reenactment  to proceed. At that time we had, as we always have had, a 1 million   dollar policy. We hurried and added another million dollar umbrella  policy to our existing policy, but the state was not satisfied. We were  willing to pay almost 900 dollars more for our policy to suffice Jeff  City. Chalk it up to unelected bureaucrats on a power quest. My  apologies to everyone who planned on attending. We continue to try and  work with the state, but it is becoming harder progressively. Please let  any fellow reenactors  know who might have been planning on attending. I  hope to see you in Hermann!
