Hello!
I've been thinking about getting into Reenacting for a long time. My original interest was in World War 2 Reenacting, I'm a big World War 2 Buff, but the sheer cost both short term and long term of WW2 Reenacting is keeping me away for now.
I'm also a big Roman military buff, and the fact that you do not have to worry about buying blanks all the time with Roman reenacting :lol: is making this hobby an attractive one in more ways than one. It just seems better as a long term reenacting.
Plus, who can beat glorious Roman armor?
Though, straight to the point.
I've found maybe one or two groups that are in Ohio, I emailed one that is based Ohio, but the last time his site was updated was 2005...I emailed him sometime last year and I never got a response.
I also saw one that was really quite local- Canton, but their website no longer exists.
If someone could help me out and point me in the direction of a group, that would be fantastic. I'm also curious about any events in the area. I am aware of the Reenacting Days coming up in Gettysburg, but I just found out about that so it's short notice, so sadly I will not be able to attend this year.
So, right now, I'm starting from the ground up. I'm thinking finding a group and getting in contact with them will be the foundation in which to grow my Roman soldier impression from.
Thank you all in advance!
