Authenticity Standards for the 1st Person Civilian Camp 

  • NO obvious make-up, do a little research and you will find that they did have eyeliner, rouge, and shadow, but it was very minimal use.
  • All dresses and suits must be of correct material and trim; ABSOLUTELTY NO synthetic material.
  • NO sneakers or non-period shoes; please research.
  • Girls over the age of 14 must have their hair up (good to do anyway to keep cool).
  • NO ball gowns in the daytime, there is not an evening dance, so no one should have one.
  • NO coolers left out; they must be hidden in a tent or well hidden.
  • NO air mattresses unless you have a medical condition that requires you to have one, and must be approved by the Civilian Coordinator; otherwise please sleep in the camp of convenience.
  • Nothing modern should be visible; water from water bottles can be poured into glasses and canteens; no plastic.
  • NO cell phones or any electronic devices; turn them off and leave them well-hidden in your tent or left in your vehicle.
  • This is a first person camp; please maintain your first person impression at all times; avoid slang if portraying a lady as it decreases the credibility of your impression.
  • If you cannot abide by these rules, please plan to reside in the camp of convenience.
  • The Civilian Coordinator will be around to enforce these rules, and will be happy to answer questions or assist where needed.
  • Remember, we are portraying civilians that lived near Manassas during 1862. We are ladies and gentlemen, act respectively. Avoid slang at all costs and most important, please use common sense.
