The Hitching Post Civil War Living History Days will begin at 9:00am. Camps will open from 9:00am to 5:00pm and set up with stations for students to stop, see, and interact in period-time. There will be soldiers, artillery firing, a field surgeon, and other setups to relive history. There will be 1860's games for the students and adults to participate and learn how they lived and played. There will also be "Music on the Grounds" during the day as well.
On Saturday night at 6:00pm there will be a historical ghost walk - a tour around the grounds where there will be historical people from around the area to tell you the history of their life in first person. They'll also share history about the area and people you still hear of now. The event is free of charge. For more information, email kissiareg@gmail.com.
