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 in and learn how they lived and played. We will have period Music on the grounds also.
On Saturday night May 4 at 6:00pm we will have a Historical ghost walk, this is a tour around the grounds where we have historical people from around the area to tell you the history of their life in first person, a lot of history about the area and people you still hear of now. We set this up as a Portal to teach school children and home school students. Please come see us.
