Several speakers during the Wednesday, April 26 Elk Grove City Council meeting urged the mayor and council members to use their influence and get a scheduled U.S. Civil War reenactment in Elk Grove canceled.

The remarks were made during public comment on non-agenda items. The event is scheduled for the Mahon Ranch on Grant Line Road on May 5 and 6, and sponsors include The Native Sons of the Golden West. Founded in 1875, the NSGW seeks to preserve California’s history dating to the 1849 Gold Rush.
