    Thanks for including my post about the Raid! We *really* enjoyed the event. I'd love to know more about joining reenactments- would you point me in the right direction?

    I assume that from your email address that your are located in the St. Augustine area. If so you are in luck the Historic Florida Militia (HFM) is the major umbrella reenactment organization in that area.

    The groups that put Drake's Raid are:
    Drake’s Men – 16th Century English
    Men of Menéndez – 16th Century Spanish
