S.C.A.R.
SOUTHEAST COALITION OF AUTHENTIC REENACTORS
The goal of the Southeast Coalition of Authentic Reenacators is to create an informal, cohesive group of like-minded representatives from the SE, authentic, Civil War  reenacting community who will work together to assure a quality reenacting experience for its members. These representatives come from the member groups or messes, which will continue to maintain their group's autonomy.  Each SCAR member group agrees to support the 4-5 max-effort events that are chosen by the unit representatives.  SCAR  will have no elected offices or permanent rank. Instead, SCAR unit representatives nominate and elect an officer or NCO/event coordinator for our company, platoon or squad for each event.  We also agree to try and stick together when possible at other events attended by SCAR representatives.
This is a formula that has been working over the past nine years among several of the SCAR groups.  Many of us have worked together for years and enjoy the camaraderie and shared hardships. The formal creation of SCAR will provide a more formal rally point both on the field and from a coordination standpoint for those SE reenactors sharing a similar attitude toward reenacting.  There are leadership opportunities available for those willing to work and coordinate our group for upcoming events. The aim is to increase participation through the efforts of volunteer leaders who will coordinate our combined group. The result is shared responsibility and expansion of individual leadership skills and more importantly a quality experience for those of similar attitudes.  We look to see you in the field!
Email any of the representatives below if your group is interested in exploring the possibilities of SCAR membership.
