SUMMARY:Fort Nisqually Brigade Encampment

The Fort Nisqually Brigade Encampment is one of the largest museum events of the year as reenactors set up dozens of tents as they arrive at the Fort. The annual encampment recreates the bustle and excitement of the historic visit of fur traders to the Fort in 1855. Guests will witness the arrival of the brigade (the convoy that delivered a year’s worth of furs) and spirited contests between trappers and traders – from obstacle course races to cooking contests. \n\nFort Nisqually Brigade Encampment\nThe Fort Nisqually Brigade Encampment includes two days of engaging activities on Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 am – 5:00 pm. \nAdmission:\nAdult (18-64) – $15\nMilitary/Senior (65+) – $15\nYouth (4-17) – $10\nAges 3 & under Free \nAt noon each day\, you will witness the arrival of the fur trade brigade\, full of bravado and glad tidings. In the early afternoon\, there is a spirited contest as reenactors run through an “obstacle course” of 19th century skills such as fire starting and splitting shingles. \nDuring both days of the Fort Nisqually Brigade Encampment\, families can participate in “Engagé for the Day\,” visiting with reenactors at their tents and receiving hands-on lessons in period skills such as sewing\, blacksmithing\, spinning\, and powder horn making. A highlight for children is the Punch and Judy puppet show\, which takes place twice daily\, at 12:30 and 3:00. \nPunch and Judy Puppet Show\nThis fun and educational event is rooted in history. Once each year\, the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC) collected all its furs from the region in one place\, usually Fort Vancouver. In 1855\, HBC traders were instructed to bring their goods to Fort Nisqually instead. Before returning to their respective posts\, the traders rested their horses and entertained each other with contests\, dancing\, and puppet shows. \nFort Nisqually Brigade Encampment Mini Gallery\n\n \nLocation\nFort Nisqually Living History Museum\n5400 N.

This historical place was the center of fur trade activity and the Native America Ojibwe heritage. The monument is surrounded by 710 acres within the boundaries of Grand Portage Ojibwe Indian Reservation and is the location of the annual Rendezvous Days Celebration Pow Wow and Grand Portage Rendezvous. \nAbout The Grand Portage\nThe Grand Portage is an 8.5-mile historic trade route of the French-Canadian voyageurs that passes through waterfalls and rapids that flow into Lake Superior. It became the gateway into rich northern fur-bearing country\, where it connected remote interior outposts to lucrative international markets. In August every year\, the voyageurs would show up and the company owners would come from Europe\, and Grand Portage became a rough and tumble celebration. After the celebration\, the furs were loaded aboard massive voyageur canoes and paddled across the Great Lakes and eventually shipped to Europe where many became hats. In the states\, the voyageurs would carry trade goods up the portage and then paddle 100s of miles back to their outposts. This repeated until beaver was almost extinct. Luckily for the beaver\, the fur hats that their pelts were used went out of fashion. \nNow\, each year on the second weekend of August\, fur trade reenactors descend on Grand Portage\, sent up canvas tents\, haul birchbark canoes around and the weekend becomes a fun family weekend. The local tribe’s powwow also goes on at the same time. \n \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Grand Portage Rendezvous Days at the Grand Portage Monument Heritage Center in Grand Portage\, Minnesota. \nTags: Grand Portage Rendezvous Days\, Grand Portage Rendezvous\, Grand Portage Voyageur Rendezvous\, Minnesota Rendezvous\, Minnesota Voyageur Rendezvous \nView Other Minnesota Rendezvous

This fort went on to become its most famous fur trade post. Although called a fort\, the post was neither a government nor a military installation\, but a privately owned commercial establishment founded to engage in business with the Northern Plains Tribes. \nBuilt at the request of the Assiniboine nation\, Fort Union Trading Post\, then called Fort Union\, quickly emerged as the Upper Missouri’s most profitable fur trade post. This trade business continued until 1867\, giving rise to a uniquely diverse\, peaceful\, and productive social and cultural environment that helped make Fort Union western America’s longest-lasting fur trade post.

On the morning of July 29\, 1781\, while Alston and his band of revolutionaries were camped at the home\, they were attacked by a larger unit of Tories\, whose leader was the notorious David Fanning. \nMrs. Alston and the children sought refuge by standing inside the chimney of the home. When the loyalists decided to set the home on fire by rolling against it a cart filled with burning straw\, Mrs. Alston bravely went to the front porch and negotiated a truce. \nAfter several casualties on both sides\, Alston surrendered. The house was left riddled with bullet holes\, many of which can still be seen today. \nAbout the Alston House\nThe House in the Horseshoe is a historic house in Sanford\, North Carolina \, and a historic site managed by the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources’ Historic Sites division. \nLocation\nHouse in the Horseshoe State Historic Site\n288 Alston House Road\nSanford\, NC 27330\n910-947-2051 \nMark your calendar so you don’t miss the next House in the Horseshoe Battle Reenactment the first weekend in August in Sanford\, North Carolina. \n \nTags: House in the Horseshoe Battle Reenactment\, House in the Horseshoe Revolutionary War Battle Reenactment\, Living History \nView Horseshoe Militia Muster & Candlelight Tour Details

Also featured are eighteenth century military camps\, a sutler trade area\, period craftspeople and a children’s area! \nSaturday & Sunday Hours: 10 a.m.- 4 p.m.\nAdmission: Adults $8; Children 4-12\, $5; Under age 3 – FREE! \nLocation\nBushy Run Battlefield\n1253 Bushy Run Rd\nJeannette\, PA 15644\n(724) 527-5584 \nBattle of Bushy Run Reenactment Mini-Gallery\n\n \nAbout The Battle of Bushy Run\nColonel Henry Bouquet and a force of approximately 400 British soldiers left Carlisle in July to relieve the besieged Fort Pitt and end a series of unchecked attacks against frontier outposts. The opening of western Pennsylvania to settlement was the result of a decisive victory over the Native Americans at the Battle of Bushy Run\, August 5th and 6th\, 1763. Highlights of the site include the interpretive exhibit\, “The March to Bushy Run” at the site’s visitor center\, as well as guided and self-guided tours\, special events and educational programs. \nAbout The French and Indian War\nThe French and Indian War was a seven-year war in North America between England\, their American colonies\, and their Native American allies against the French and their Native American allies. When the war ended\, France was no longer in control of Canada and the Indians who had been threatening the American colonists were defeated. This war had become a world war. Great Britain spent a great deal of money in the conflict and colonists fully participated in this war. Both these facts were to have a profound effect on the future of the colonies. \n[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”TripAdvisor Reviews: Battle of Bushy Run Reenactment”]\nBushy Run Is A Five Star Battlefield\nThe site of the 1763 battle between the British Army and Chief Pontiac’s Native American Confederation is a must see attraction. Visitors will first start at the visitor center\, which includes a small museum that details the events leading up to Pontiac’s Rebellion with the highlight of the museum being the 13 minute long documentary Road To Bushy Run. Afterwards\, you can either take a golf cart tour that loops around the battlefield or take your own self guided tour and walk in the footsteps the men who fought 250 years ago did. Sadly\, the first day’s battleground has become barren due to a farm being located on the site at one point. Edge Hill\, where the second day’s fighting occured is still preserved in the state it was during the battle. \nThere are numerous hiking trails that weave through the woods around Edge Hill (which provide an idea of what the 1st day’s battle ground was like). The site’s staff are very nice and informative and helped answer a lot of my questions. I will recommend doing a French and Indian War themed trip if you are visiting from out of the area\, as there are other sites relating to Bushy Run in the area. Overall\, Bushy Run Battlefield is a hidden gem in Western Pennsylvania that is a must see site. \n[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Battle of Bushy Run Reenactment on the first weekend of August in Jeannette\, Pennsylvania. \n \nTags: Battle of Bushy Run Reenactment\, Bushy Run Battlefield Reenactment\, French and Indian War Reenactment \nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Other Events

Behind them stood the Marquis de Montcalm\, a general used to doing the impossible in Canada and the mountains of Italy. With woolen vestes packed away\, wearing the white coats of France\, each French soldier double-checked his stockpile of loaded muskets and hoped for a miracle to defend New France from a British onslaught. Sweat beading up on their brows\, they looked over tangled branches and a forest of mere stumps. With piercing eyes they looked over the top of the stacked logs and began to see blazing musket fire explode as the largest single day of battle yet in the history of North America began. \nThree days prior\, the largest military force ever assembled in North America embarked by bateaux down Lake George\, leaving the ruins of Fort William Henry to invade New France from the south. At Fort Carillon\, 3\,700 French soldiers\, Canadian milice\, and native warriors stood to defend French soil in the New World. Abercromby’s army of British and Provincial soldiers landed at the north end of Lake George\, after a long night packed into the fleet of bateaux. Sweeping through the La Chute valley\, Brigadier General Lord Augustus Howe and the advanced guard encountered a lost patrol of French soldiers. In the ensuing confusing battle Lord Howe was shot through the chest\, and killed on the spot. The death of this leader\, known as the darling of the army\, struck a blow to British morale and tactical command. \n \nIn spite of Lord Howe’s death\, British and Provincial soldiers dug in along the La Chute River and General Abercromby prepared to assault the Heights of Carillon. Abercromby’s intelligence led him to believe that the Marquis de Montcalm’s soldiers had prepared merely a defensive abatis\, which could easily be taken. Early in the morning of July 8th\, General Abercromby moved regulars\, provincials\, and rangers into position to attack the Heights of Carillon. By this plan\, three columns of British and provincial soldiers would attack three sides of the French lines in unison. Instead\, individual regiments rushed forward\, dissipating their immense numerical advantage. What was supposed to be a well-coordinated attack soon fell apart. The French kept up a consistent fire on the attacking force\, pinning many of the British soldiers down\, forcing them to hide behind stumps of trees and the bodies of their fallen comrades. David Perry\, a Massachusetts provincial soldier\, described his perilous situation that July day. \nIt happened that I got behind a white-oak stump\, which was so small that I had to lay on my side\, and stretch myself; the balls striking the ground within a hand’s breadth of me every moment\, and I could hear the men screaming\, and see them dying all around me. I lay there some time. A man could not stand erect\, without being hit\, any more than he could stand out in a shower\, without having drops of rain fall upon him; for the balls came by hands-full. \nBritish Defeat and Retreat\nThe outcome looked grim for the few attackers who made it to the abatis. Rushing over the bare no-mans-land\, they attempted to cut and force their way through the sharp entangled branches\, facing clouds of lead bullets. After seven hours of fighting\, the battlefield was littered with the dead and dying\, and with dusk encompassing the battlefield a disorganized retreat south ensued for the British and provincial soldiers. The retreating soldiers brought with them the story of this great battle\, taking the name Ticonderoga home to taverns and newspapers in America and Britain. \nThis fight for the Heights of Carillon at that time was the single most-bloody day in American history\, and gave Fort Carillon a formidable reputation. Having held the French Lines for one day\, French soldiers continued to dig in\, preparing for a second day’s attack. Their somber celebration for the day’s victory was a single cross raised high behind the French Lines. The Marquis de Montcalm ordered this cross raised as thanks for their miraculous victory\, even as they prayed for another such miracle. News of this miraculous victory reached France by the fall of that year. On October 1st\, 1758 the French army staged a reenactment of the battle\, to accompany fireworks to celebrate in front of Paris city hall. \n \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next 1758 Montcalms Cross Battle of Carillon Reenactment in July at historic Fort Ticonderoga! \nTags: Montcalms Cross Battle of Carillon Reenactment at Fort Ticonderoga\, French & Indian War Reenactment\, Montcalms Cross Battle of Carillon Reenactment\, 1758 Battle of Carillon Reenactment\, Battle of Carillon Reenactment \nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Other Events\nFort Ticonderoga Special Events\, History & Living History Daily Demonstrations
