What takes place during the reenactment/event?
We hold our anniversary celebration on the weekend closest to the anniversary of the battle. This year it will be January 19 – 20. Although there will not be a battle reenactment, there will be reenactors in 18th century clothing who will be give weapons firing demonstrations, Revolutionary War cavalry demonstrations, and have military camps set up. Park rangers will give guided battlefield walks. Two authors will speak and have book signings. We also will have an 18th century traveling entertainer and a children’s area where they can participate in 18th century activities such as writing with a quill pen, making dummy musket cartridges, punching tin, and learning the von Steuben weapons drill.
