FIELD TRIP to Living History Days – Sept 22 @ 12pm
Friday, September 22 @ 12pm (noon) – Experience 18th-century life through costumed interpreters, hands-on activities, and military demonstrations. Aspects of colonial American life will be available for you to experience – agriculture, blacksmith, education, games, gunsmith, military, and much more. There’s a live battle reenactment twice/daily, and we should be around for the afternoon show. There is also a dramatized medical demonstration following the battle that is totally optional + easy to avoid as it draws a crowd that drastically limits visibility.

Current + former members are invited to join us! We’ll play an all-ages kickball game with on-demand location tours, + a cooler of popsicles to help fuel the mingling/play.
