We are three weeks away from the first annual Battle of Billie Creek Village event. Over the last two weeks we have had many of our native re-enactor friends asking about attending and I think we will have numerous participants. There is a great wooded area on site near a lovely little creek that would be perfect for a native village etc. If you would like to attend please don't hesitate to reach out. [email protected]

Happy Friday! We are just about one month away from the first ever Battle for Billie Creek Village event. Just a few updates: #1 Seven Years' War, Inc. will be teaching a cannon school during the event for anyone who would like to be artillery certified. #2 we can confirm that on Saturday we will be having a pitch-in dinner for those that attend. SYW, Inc. will provide the entrée and we ask each unit/participant group to provide one side dish. If you follow the Billie Creek page you will see all the work they have been doing repairing buildings, painting, removing debris. We are very excited. If you have any questions or would like to register please contact [email protected]. Hope to see you in August.

It is with extreme sadness that the Seven Years' War, Inc. shares the passing of long time organization officer and member Kimberly Wilson. Kim along with her family have been longtime re-enactors/living historians within our community. Kim served as SYW, Inc. Treasurer for many years and her husband Brian served as SYW, Inc. President. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family.
