Who We Are


The Re-enactors of the American Civil War is a non-profit organization based in Northern California. Our goal is to perpetuate public awareness and stimulate interest in the historical significance of the War Between the States.

We were organized in 1991, and our membership now includes over 175 members. We work together and strive to recreate the drama, mannerisms, and realities of life during the pivotal time of the American Civil War.

Our organization is composed of Confederate, Federal, and Civilian representations, all of which portray life during this era.

The RACW sponsors events throughout Northern California, and we host school day presentations in order to bring living history directly to the classroom. Please visit our Join Us page if you are interested in joining, sponsoring, or visiting our family-friendly atmosphere of fellowship and camaraderie.

Thank you for visiting!
