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.
We reserved three (3) nights in the Pickle Gulch, Group 1 site. Tents only! 30-person limit. We usually plan to share a meal or two, potluck-style.
We’ve crafted a special, 3-hour tour just for our group that involves a little bit of the supernatural + a lot of Gilpin County history.
