Camp Floyd Period Clothing For Reanactments

Most Worshipful Brother John C. Liley Jr. wearing an early army uniform

Dressing in period clothing for meetings of Camp Floyd Historic Lodge is one of the fun aspects of membership. It is important to know that we are talking pre-civil war, 1858-1861. While the majority of the original Lodge members of Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 205 were military, there were civilian members as well.

We are fortunate to have a member that is expert in clothing of the period, Worshipful Brother Mike Moon can be contacted at moongnu@yahoo.com. Contact Brother Moon with your questions on authentic looking clothing and protocal of the period.

W. Brother Moon made some of the finest replica Masonic Aprons of the time period. The Lodge does have a number available for purchase during our meetings for $100.00 each. I hope to add a link to a page of his aprons in the near future. For now there are samples at the bottom of this page. You also can find companies that offer period clothing listed below.
