The Official Remembrance of a changing moment in history with a strong relationship to today's headlines will be March 7, 2009 at the Four Winds RenFaire.  www-living history, in cooperation with other living history groups of the mid-17th century from coast to coast will present...

The Battle of Konotop, also known as the Battle of Sosnivka, was a battle fought between the hetman of Ukraine, Ivan Vyhovsky, and his allies against the armies of the Muscovites led by prince Aleksey Trubetskoy, on June 29, 1659 near the town of Konotop.

The Ukrainians with their Polish and Tatar allies fought for the sovereign right of a nation to freedom against the Muscovite (now called Russian)  armies trying to stop nationhood... sound familiar?

This is a great day out for the family, with a huge battle with cannons, period firearms, live blade fighting and so much more... More soon...

We are a volunteer organization dedicated to bringing the mid-seventeenth century to life 
through assisting the development of realistic living history and live blade groups.
