The Sharpshooters are dedicated to education.
Teaching about history, the civil war and the social norms of the time is our passion.
The Sharpshooters will set up and run living history displays at no cost for educational programs in Oregon and Washington. We are willing to speak to individual classes, larger groups or participate in existing activities. Our availability depends on the location of your venue and the dates, but we will do everything we can to set up a living history program that works for your school or group.
What we offer:
Enthusiastic presenters, dedicated to education
Interesting displays, with or without weapons
Interactive drill and camp life scenarios
A wide range of presentations, including:
Berdan Sharpshooter
Union Infantry
Confederate Infantry
Civilian Nurse
Civilian Laundress
Union Hospital Steward
We are willing to work with your school or group to help teach to your expectation of history. If no lesson plan is assigned, we have living history displays that range from a full scale muster station, to independent figures in historic costume.
