This is a PUBLIC ORIENTED EVENT, which means we will be having school kids come on Thursday and Friday. The focus will be on demonstrations; this will give them hands on experience with their American Heritage, and perhaps learn some of our American History they may have forgotten about. Thursday and Friday will be geared towards the school kids with demonstrations, then a Rendezvous atmosphere after 3 pm and on the weekend. There will be Military Encampments, Mountain Man Encampments and a Traders Row. We will have Native American representation, 1870-1890's Cowboy, and primitive encampments. We will have entertainment, activities and fun things to do. There will be something for everyone to experience. If you have any primitive skills or knowledge you would like to share with the pilgrims PLEASE let us know. Any and all help will be welcomed and appreciated.
