January 16 – 18, 2009
Brooksville Raid – FL
The 145th anniversary
of the actual Federal raid on the town of Brooksville and the 28th annual Brooksville Raid, Brooksville, Florida. Hosted
by the Hernando Historical Museum Assoc. and North Pinellas Scout Sertoma Club. The Brooksville Raid is known as the
biggest and the best Civil War Reenactment in Florida. Last year 3,850 reenactors and their families participated in
the event along with 24 cannons and 61 mounted cavalrymen. Help is needed for the school day on Friday the 16th (over
1,200 students attended last year). Cavalrymen - This year the Brooksville Raid will not supply hay for the cavalry
horses. In place of the hay ration, a Horse Hay-Bounty will be distributed to the cavalrymen. The bounty will
be $10 per horse to first 40 pre-registered horses who participate in the battle. The hay bounty will be handled at
the registration desk when the cavalryman signs in. If you did not pre-register yourself and your horse, you will not
get the $10 bounty. Remember to bring your own hay for your horse - no hay will be on site. All horses and mules
are required to show current coggins papers at the registration desk before the horse is allowed on the property. The
event will supply tent and sleeping hay to the infantrymen. Two battles (2:30pm); one Sat. one Sun. Ladies tea
will be held at 11:00am Saturday (the women put a lot into this tea and I have been told it is one of the best anywhere),
Blue/Gray Ball Sat night at 8:00pm, church Sun. morning. A $2.00 donation to the event will be required for all reenactors
and adult family members participating in the Brooksville Raid. All reenactors will receive a raffle ticket upon
registering for a $100.00 gift certificate (five to be given away) to be used at any of the sutlers in Sutlers Row during
the event. The winners will be posted throughout the camps and at the ball Saturday evening. Any and all proceeds
from this event are split evenly between North Pinellas Sertoma and the Heritage Museum. Meals and hot showers will
be available from the North Pinellas Co. Scout Sertoma Club, Friday evening through Sunday, for a nominal fee. Due to
the incredible amount of artillery attending the Raid, the artillery bounty will be a little different this year. One
bounty per unit ($100) will be given to the first twenty pre-registered cannons only. The Raid is held at the Sand Hill
Boy Scout Camp on US Hwy 50. The battle is 10 miles West of Brooksville. The entrance is on Hwy 50. Take
Hwy. 50 West. Go through Brooksville, keep going West about 10 miles, and look for the signs. More information
