The Palmetto Riflemen & Anderson’s Battery are hosting “The Carolina Campaign” – the 161st Anniversary of the Skirmish at Gamble’s Hotel on Saturday, March 28th and Sunday, March 29th, 2026.
I’m looking forward to making tintypes there! Several years ago, the site used to host an event, so I’d been to the site a few times. It’s an amazing old mansion, with a very cool barn where they have the dance (upstairs!). A very unique atmosphere!
