Gathering At Point Ellice House, Victoria, B.C. Small gathering at Point Ellice House, Victoria, British Columbia

We are an informal group of history enthusiasts, dedicated to keeping alive the memory of the Royal Engineers and their times. Using period uniforms and equipment, we seek to interpret to the public daily life in the colony of British Columbia some 140 years ago. Each of us has chosen an actual historical figure to portray, including officers, common soldiers and civilians. We are privileged to attend as guests at sites including Fort Langley and Fort Rodd Hill National Historic Sites, Barkerville Provincial Park, CFB Esquimalt Naval & Military Museum and San Juan Island National Historic Park.
