REENACTORS REPORTS FOR 2016
​

December 2016
​On January 17th Camp 11 held its annual Lee/Jackson Salute at Confederate Rest in Mobile’s Magnolia Cemetery.  Once again the good Lord blessed us with excellent weather.  The event was well attended and Compatriot Toifel delivered a memorable address.  We appreciate all of you who attended the ceremony.  Our guests included Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Binion who portray President and Miss Varina Davis.  They were very complimentary of our camp’s program and our hospitality.  It was also good to see our compatriot Shannon Fontaine at the service.
   We also want to take a moment to congratulate Camp 11 member Carl Broussard for being selected as the Camp 11 Compatriot of the Year.  Good job, Karl.
   On the 9th several Camp 11 members attended the Blakeley Camp Lee/Jackson Banquet in Foley.  Claude Turberville and Dustin Marshall served in the color guard.  Alabama Division 1st Lt. Commander Jimmy Hill delivered the address for the program.  It was a good evening of Confederate fellowship.
