Our Mission
Penick’s Battery is a Civil War artillery re-enactment unit, dedicated to the preservation of history and to the education of the public on the aspects of the Civil War. Our objective is to accurately portray the highly trained Virginia cannoneers in military drills, battle tactics and camp life. Our objective is achieved by participating in Living Histories, Reenactments, Lectures, Educational Demonstrations, Parades, Civil Ceremonies and other occasions for the education and enlightenment of both our members and the general public.
