Victoria Bryant State Park hosted the Georgia 24th Infantry Regiment reenactors over the weekend. This state park is located a few miles from Royston, Georgia near the South Carolina state line. This beautiful park provides activities for local residents as well as featuring camping facilities.

Two members of the Georgia 24th Infantry Regiment reenactors were there over the weekend with a typical Civil War camp setup to provide historical stories of this regiment as well as demonstrating the use of black powder weapons used during the Civil War and camp life of those soldiers. Roger Boles (left) has been with this group for seven years, and Frank Poole (right) has been a reenactor for seventeen years. Each year they spend a weekend at the park to allow the public to see what life was like for typical Civil War soldiers.
