I'm retired, so I have no holidays, though I do observe the Christian church year. When everything's closed, I'm more likely to be painting castings.

Which I should get back to.

Zulu Wars for MLK's Day. That is pushing really close up to a line there.

I've never had a game specifically for a holiday.
So I just picked some battles that I have put on, or participated in. Ha! I violated the terms and conditions of the poll!

anything, but russian front on June 22 has been done in the past. today it will be AWI.

I would think Trenton would be aligned with Christmas since it was fought the day after.

Zulu Wars (Martin Luther King Day)

Really? Why are you linking a British colonial war with no American involvement to an American holiday? I suspect most of us have a pretty good idea.

I can only pick five. There are seven we regularly put on in the list.

Short Hills is near the 4th, but we play it then because: (1) it is interesting, and (2) it is an AWI battle. That's how Trenton got associated with the 4th. We already play the WWI Christmas Truce and the Nutcrakcer at Christmas, and even though there are a lot of holiday days in a row, those two kind of max us for holiday scheduled games.
