15th Anniversary
Civil War Days Reenactment
October 16-17, 2010

Our Civil War event has grown to one of the best in the state! Over 500 re-enactors participate in this annual event.

Visit with President Lincoln, or General Thomas. There are live horses, booming cannons, a spectacular battle scene, even a Ball in the evening where anyone is welcome to dance! Come experience a piece of American History at our "battlefield". It's a weekend you
won't want to miss.

A small entrance fee ($4 for adult, $2 for children) is charged for the Battle only - 2PM Saturday 10/16 or Sunday 10/17

BE SURE TO ARRIVE EARLY - NO LATER THAN 1:00 PM IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE BATTLE

If you are a reenactor interested in being part of this event,
