Civl War Ball

Image

I know I had told you all about the Homeschool Civil War Ball that we attended last year. We were so excited for this year, but were devastated to find out it had been canceled. I have been in contact with the family who hosted last year. Since it did not work out, she is allowing me to host one instead. It will be at the same location as last time with the same photographer and band. Here are the details:

Event: The Civil War Ball

What to wear: Please dress in period costumes. Women: Don't worry if you don't own a fancy 
                      Civil War ballgown. You can make one very affordably. Look at this Etsy listing-she tells

                      They  are so simple. You can just simply wear a white cotton shirt tucked in with a simple  
                      sash.
                      Men: If you do not own a period military uniform, no worries. Simply wear nice black slacks
                      with a cotton shirt tucked in. Please wear white gloves, as not to soil the women's gowns.
