Battle of Stoney Creek - June 7th & 8th
Although our line was busy in Barrie Ontario, our Campfollowers were able to participate in the Battle of Stoney Creek events. Our Regimental Surgeon, as well as members who belong to the Regency Dancers interacted with the public between the battles. We hope to have the line back for the Battle of Stoney Creek, 2009.

Port Dover Marine Heritage Festival June 20th & 21st
The Port Dover event for the last few years has been a naval event and this year they expanded to include land forces. The Incorporated Militia of Upper Canada joined the 41st Regiment, the Royal Scots Grenadiers, and the Norfolk Militia among others in two land battle scenarios and one beach landing. To aid the site, the Incorporated Militia portrayed US militia for the battles on Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon. For the evening beach battle to repulse the American landing party, we returned to our roots, a Canadian redcoat militia.
The Marine Heritage Museum in Port Dover hosted the event.
