Many skirmishers gathered for the late August skirmish in Beloit for the joint ACWSA and N-SSA skirmish.  The event was flawlessly ran and there was an excellent tribute for the 46th Illinois celebrating 50 years since joining the N-SSA.  Many stories were told of these fine men and women including some “hands on history” tables set up with relics from the past.  Both days brought more memories to the skirmishing community.  Team results were as follows for the top three teams:
