Re-enactment

History, brought to life

Re-enactors from the Vikings, Roman, French and Indian War, Civil War, and Revolutionary War will be staging exciting re-enactments. The re-enactors recreate the battles, daily lives and most important events of the era they represent. It’s not just about the battles, it’s also about recreating the drama, dress, mannerisms, and realities of life at the time.

Re-enactors, please register so we know you are planning on coming.

Sutlers, please register and let us know you are coming so we can have a spot saved for you.
