A special evening cannon firing will be held Saturday at 6:30 p.m. The educational program at this state historic site gives life to North Carolina’s past experiences and traditions and demonstrates the value of living history to students and adults. \nFor more information\, please call (704) 873-5882 or visit www.fortdobbs\,org. Fort Dobbs is the only state historic site dedicated to the period of the French and Indian War (1754-1763)\, also known as the Seven Years’ War. It is North Carolina’s only link to a war for empire that crossed five continents and lasted nearly 10 years.

Reenactor Registration Form \nLocation:\nFort Dobbs State Historic Site\n438 Fort Dobbs Road\nStatesville\, NC 28625 \nDirections: From Interstate 40\, take either US 21 North (exit 151) or NC 115 North (exit. 150). From US 21\, turn left onto Fort Dobbs Road. From NC 115\, veer right onto S. Chipley Ford Road\, then turn right onto Fort Dobbs Road. \nFor More Information: Call 704-873-5882; Email: info@fortdobbs.org \nHistory of Fort Dobbs\nFort Dobbs was the only permanent frontier provincial fort in the colony of North Carolina. Construction began in late 1755 and was completed one year later. It served as the military headquarters for the frontier company (approximately fifty men) as well as a safe-haven for settlers. The fort was attacked on the night of February 27\, 1760 when more than 70 Cherokees were repelled. The garrison suffered two men wounded\, as well as having one colonial boy killed. The Cherokee were reported to have lost 10-12 men killed and wounded. By the end of 1761\, the British had essentially won the war and only thirty troops remained at the fort. Colonial leaders disbanded the troops and removed all the supplies of the garrison as settlement moved far west of the fort. The neglected fort was in ruins by 1766. \nReconstruction of Fort Dobbs\nSoon after protecting the site of Fort Dobbs in 1909\, the Daughters of the American Revolution recognized the need to reconstruct the blockhouse. Following initial archaeological investigations in the 1960’s and ’70’s the site became a State Historic Site\, but with several key questions about the original structure still unanswered\, no immediate reconstruction effort was planned.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Read More”]\nIn 2003\, the reincorporated non-profit Friends of Fort Dobbs took up the vision of then-site manager Beth Hill to begin an effort to rebuild. More than a decade of hard work ensued. The Friends undertook a fundraising campaign to fund the effort and co-operated with State officials\, historians\, historic building specialists\, architects\, and noted archaeologist Dr. Larry Babits to develop feasible\, historically sound plans and the capital needed to make Fort Dobbs stand on the banks of Fourth Creek once again. \nFollowing several other facility improvements to the site\, ground was broken for the new fort in August of 2016. A mix of modern and 18th Century construction techniques have been employed to meet the challenge of building a structure that must simultaneously meet modern building standards while also approximating an entirely hand-build piece of military engineering from 260 years ago. We hope\, with your support\, to have Fort Dobbs open as a living history exhibit on a grand scale by early 2019![/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \n \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Dobbs Cherokee Attack Anniversary Reenactment on February 24-25\, 2018 at the Fort Dobbs State Historic Site in Statesville\, North Carolina. \nTags: Fort Dobbs Cherokee Attack Anniversary Reenactment\, Fort Dobbs Cherokee Attack Anniversary\, Cherokee Attack Anniversary\, French & Indian War Reenactment \nView other War of 1812 Encampments & Reenactments

While the original fort that Lancaster Lupton built has long been gone\, a dedicated group of individuals began in 2003 to reconstruct the fort. The reconstructed Fort Lancaster\, as it was known in its original period of operation\, 1836-1844\, was completed and dedicated in 2011.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Read More”]\nA visit to Lancaster Lupton’s trade fort is an experience of going back in time to when an individual with a vision and entrepreneurial spirit took risks to establish a trade enterprise on the wild prairie along the front range of the Rocky Mountains. Lancaster Lupton first came to the area with a military expedition in 1835. By 1836 Lupton had resigned his commission and was bringing skilled craftsman and labor from the Mexican village of Taos north to build his trade fort. By 1837-38 he was trading with the Arapahoe and Cheyenne tribes. Come see his trade fort and walk through the inner plaza to visit the blacksmith and carpenter shops\, living quarters\, kitchen and food preparation rooms\, trade rooms\, cantina and storage room with historic artifacts.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nAbout South Platte Valley Historic Park\nHistoric Fort Lupton (aka Fort Lancaster) and South Platte Valley Settlement Historic Park encompasses 97 acres of land along the South Platte River just northwest of the city of Fort Lupton\, Colorado. The land consists of a large natural and camping area immediately along the river and a high bench of land where the original Fort Lancaster was located.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Read More”]\nAlong the river\, in groves of cottonwood trees are camping areas that can be used by Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops with reservations. These camping areas are also used by the re-enactment department of the SPVHS – the Tallow River Trappers – to hold periodic rendezvous events. Immediately along the river are nature areas that are home to deer\, turkey\, foxes and other animals and birds. At the north end of the historic park is a muzzleloading shooting range leased by the Fort Lupton Muzzleloading Club. \nStart your tour of the historic park at the re-creation of Fort Lancaster\, which was in operation from 1836 to 1844.

Moving further down the path\, your will see both the Independence School built in 1875 and the Donelson homestead house built in the 1860s. The Donelson House and the Independence School represent the settlement of the Platte Valley started by the early fur trappers and traders.[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nHosted by The Tallow River Trappers\nThe Tallow River Trappers is the living history branch of the South Platte Valley Historical Society\, sponsor of the annual rendezvous.

The camps are everywhere. Many are strictly military\, others are civilian and still others are combined. Visitors/spectators are encouraged to visit the authentic camps\, wander among the campfires\, listen to the soldiers and civilians and ask questions. While you should not wander through the modern reenactor camps\, you are welcome to visit the authentic Federal (Union) infantry and civilian camps\, the combined Federal and Confederate cavalry and artillery camps\, and the Confederate infantry and civilian camps. \nOlustee Battle Reenactment Mini-Gallery\n \nSutlers are Civil War-era merchants. During the Civil War every regiment or brigade had a sutler licensed to follow along and sell “extras” to the men. These extras included food items\, such as cans of sweetened condensed milk (a favorite with the men); to clothing\, such as civilian-style shirts; to some items hidden away from the eyes of the Provost (military police). Olustee usually has 40-50 sutlers in attendance and these sutlers must pass inspection for the authenticity of their goods and appearance. \nDaily Olustee Battle Reenactment Schedule Summaries: \nFriday: Education DayFriday is the day when thousands of students invade the site with their teachers and parents to learn more about the Civil War. There are medical\, cavalry\, artillery and infantry demonstrations. Some students are here just to roam\, talk to the reenactors and absorb history. Others have definite history assignments they are working on\, everything from books to audio and photographic projects. If you wish your child to attend\, ask your school to contact the Florida Park Service at (386) 397-2733 or e-mail olusteecso@yahoo.com. Many home-schoolers bring their children to Olustee to absorb this period of our history.Saturday: Olustee Battle ReenactmentUnless you must witness the scripted Olustee Battle Reenactment\, Saturday is the best day for spectators. Not only do you have most of the day to visit the authentic camps and sutler area\, but the full-scale Saturday battle is not until 3:30 pm (or 2 hours later than on Sunday). In addition\, the crowds will be smaller than on Sunday. And after the battle\, why rush to wait in the lines at the bus pickup points when you can take your time ambling through the camps watching the reenactors rest up and clean their weapons after fighting and dying. \n \nAfter dinner\, many of the reenactors will be putting on their dress uniforms and gowns for the Reenactor’s Ball later that evening. The Ball is not open to the spectators and you will have left the event site long before it begins. Other reenactors will spend the evening campfire visiting\, telling tales of other events\, discussing the Civil War and just visiting with friends. The “sense of community” is strong among reenactors and many of us don’t see each other except for these events\, as our homes are distant from one another. But friendships are strong and campfire visits are the best time to meet with comrades: when officers and enlisted men\, from ditch diggers to bank presidents and even\, of all things\, entomologists\, share the warmth of the fire and a drink from a canteen (or other liquid containers). \nSunday: Olustee Battle ReenactmentPlan to arrive early on Sunday\, as the main event – the scripted Olustee Battle Reenactment\, is at 1:30 pm. If you want to see any of the camps or spend time at the sutler area you need to arrive early as you should really head toward the battle area about 12:30 at the latest. Arrive after this time and the best seats—there are only eight sets of bleachers—will be taken. Why not pack a picnic lunch and use the time waiting to enjoy it with your family. An authentic band will play Civil War music to entertain you while you wait. [Hint: Since this is a Federal defeat\, most of the action takes place on the Union side (east side) of the field. Find a seat on the ground there.] \nEven before the troops begin to assemble for Sunday’s Olustee Battle Reenactment\, many of them will take down their tents and pack their belongings. We all have a long drive home—especially those from the northern states—and after the battle we will be scattering to the four winds. If you do not arrive early on Sunday then you should visit the camps before the battle. After the battle\, when the troops are breaking camp\, is the best time to visit the sutlers who usually stay until Monday. And when you have finished there\, the bus lines will be much shorter for the ride back to your car. \nMore Olustee Battle Reenactment Details:Why is it Important to Register at the Battle of Olustee?Links to all details for Reenactors\, Vendors\, Visitors\, etc.Where is he ReenactmentCapsule History of Battle \n \nMark your calendar today you don’t miss the next Olustee Battle Reenactment at the Olustee Battlefield State Park near Sanderson\, Florida. \nTags: Olustee Battle Reenactment\, Battle of Olustee Reenactment\,Battle of Ocean Pond Reenactment\, Olustee Battle Civil War Reenactment\, Civil War Reenactment \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events

This 3 day event portrays the time period of 1861-1862 at a Federal fortress. First person interpretation\, weapons demonstrations and camp life are featured on a daily basis. \n\nFort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days\nIt’s an historical re-enactment of when Fort Taylor was active during the American Civil War in the 1860s. This fortress was one of three fortresses in Florida that was held by Federal forces throughout that conflict. While there were no major battles or skirmishes at Fort Taylor during the American Civil War\, this event demonstrates to visitors the role the fortress played during the Civil War. It assisted the Federal Navy in administering the blockade of southern ports that was imposed by President Lincoln shortly after war broke out. \nEvent Time: Friday – 8:00am EST to Sunday – 5:00pm EST \nReenactor Fee: $5.00 fee for weekend. Another $5.00 for shooters on the schooners if you want to go on the boats. If you want to board the boat\, but not be a shooter\, that fee depends on the boat. Some charge full price (about $35\, while some half that amount). \nLocation:\nFort Taylor\n601 Howard England Way\nKey West\, FL 33040 \nDirections: Take I-95 south all the way into the Keys.

Captured blockade runners were forced to anchor in the waters just offshore. \nFort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days reenactment participants who portray southerners are “captured” as their vessel attempts to run the Federal blockade of Key West Harbor. The ship’s master is put on trial by a Federal court. The case is taken from an actual court transcript from 1862. The event features a military-style parade from a Civil War memorial to Fort Taylor along Key ‘ famous Duval Street. Visitors can also shop at period sutlers\, the stores of the day. Event highlights focus on educating the public by sharing the history of Fort Taylor and life during the Civil War. \nFor more information on how to get involved in Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days\, contact Kevin Bowes at kevin.bowes@dep.state.fl.us (link sends e-mail). \, or (305) 292-6850. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days the first weekend in February in Key West\, Florida. \nTags: Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days\, Fort Taylor Civil War Heritage Days Reenactment\, Civil War Reenactment\, Ft Taylor\, Battle at Fort Taylor \nView other Civil War Reenactments & Other Events

DESCRIPTION:2019 Battles Of The River Raisin Reenactment\n\nRate This Event\n \nDon’t miss excitement at the 205th Commemoration of the Battles Of The River Raisin Reenactment in Monroe\, Michigan on January 19\, 2019. Join the many participants from Michigan\, Ohio\, Kentucky and Canada\, along with Native Americans and residents of Monroe Michigan as we remember this bloody battle and massacre that took place on January 22-23\, 1813. \nThe commemoration is held on the very ground along the River Raisin where hundreds of lives were lost in a struggle for freedom and sovereignty during the early years of the United States. \n\nBattles Of The River Raisin Reenactment\nBattle of Frenchtown (AKA The Battle of the River Raisin)\nThe Battle of Frenchtown (Battle of the River Raisin in Monroe Michigan) was the largest battle fought on Michigan soil. This battle was a major defeat for the Americans and was one of the bloodiest engagements during the War of 1812. The massacre of some wounded solders the following day shocked and enraged Americans throughout the Old Northwest Territory. This incident soon became known as “The River Raisin Massacre” and the rallying cry was “Remember the Raisin”. \nAnniversary Memorial Service Commemorates The Battles of the River Raisin\nEach January\, on the anniversary date of the battles\, a memorial service is held on the battlefield. This event commemorates the service of the Americans\, French\, British\, Canadians\, and Native Americans who fought at the River Raisin. During this service\, uniformed living historians representing the soldiers of the War of 1812\, place a wreath on the ground that was the scene of the heaviest fighting and fire ceremonial salutes in honor of those who fell here. \nTENTATIVE SCHEDULE:\nSaturday\n9:00 a.m. Presentation at the River Raisin National Park Education Center\n11:00 a.m. Tactical Musket and Cannon Demonstration at Education Center\n12:00 p.m. Remembrance Ceremony at Education Center\n2:30 p.m. 1812 Program at the Monroe Historical Museum\, 126 S.

Lacroix’s company of Volunteer Infantry of the Michigan militia was mustered into service on May 18\, 1812. Their period of active duty lasted just 2 months and 30 days\, until General Hull’s surrender of Detroit and all of Michigan Territory on August 16 of that same year. \n \nNow\, over two centuries after the War of 1812\, Lacroix’s company of Michigan militia is once again on the march every year at the Battles of the River Raisin Reenactment. Sponsored and supported by the River Raisin Battlefield Visitor Center and the Friends of the River Raisin Battlefield\, modern-day company members research and reproduce many aspects of the life and times of the original unit. The company now is made up of volunteers who are dedicated to preserving the living memory of our community’s past by recreating\, as best we can\, the clothing\, activities\, and skills of the early inhabitants of the historic River Raisin settlement. We have been named the official War of 1812 Bicentennial Re-enactment unit by both the City and County of Monroe\, Michigan.

In November 1775\, Washington sent a 25 year-old bookseller-turned-soldier\, Henry Knox\, to bring heavy artillery that had been captured at Fort Ticonderoga to Boston. Knox knew the challenge before him as he wrote to George Washington on December 5\, 1775. \nThe garrison at Ticonderoga is so weak\, the conveyance from the fort to the landing is so difficult\, the passage across the lake so precarious\, that I am afraid it will be ten days at least before I can get them on this side. When they are here\, the conveyance from hence will depend entirely on the sledding; if that is wood\, they shall immediately move forward; without sledding\, the roads are so much gullied that it will be impossible to move a step. \nIn a technically complex and demanding operation\, Knox began the “Noble Train” in January 1776 at Ticonderoga and carried sixty tons of artillery through the dead of winter to Boston in just forty days. In March 1776\, these artillery pieces were used to fortify Dorchester Heights\, overlooking Boston and its harbor and threatening the British naval supply lifeline. The British commander William Howe\, realizing he could no longer hold the town\, chose to evacuate it. He withdrew the British forces\, departing on March 17\, for Halifax\, Nova Scotia thus giving Washington his first great victory of the war. \nFort Ticonderoga is the location of the first Knox Trail marker in the Knox cannon trail that traces the route of the Noble Train. The Fort Ticonderoga Museum owns 2 original artillery pieces that made the epic journey in the winter of 1776. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Colonel Knox is Now at Ticonderoga at Fort Ticonderoga in December in Ticonderoga\, New York. \nTags: Colonel Knox is Now at Ticonderoga\, Henry Knox\, Noble Train Begins\, Fort Ticonderoga Noble Train\, Revolutionary War Reenactment \n[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \nView other Revolutionary War Reenactments & Other Events\nFort Ticonderoga Special Events\, History & Living History Daily Demonstrations

Blazing the trail presented extraordinary difficulties – the route through the wilderness was a hunter’s trace that was too narrow for a wagon.  The task was to combine many trails into one continuous route by clearing underbrush and overhanging foliage. When Daniel Boone and his men reached the Kentucky River on April 1\, 1775\, they quickly moved to establish Kentucky?s second settlement–the site still known as Fort Boonesborough. \nLocation\nFort Boonesborough State Park\n4375 Boonesborough Rd.\nRichmond\, Ky. 40475 \nFor more information about Rifle Frolic and Frontier Skills at Fort Boonesborough\, contact Phone 859-527-3131 ext 216 or email alec.forman@gmail.com or ahenry@wittenberg.edu. \nMark your calendar so you don’t miss the next Rifle Frolic and Frontier Skills at Fort Boonesborough at Fort Boonesborough State Park in Richmond\, KY. \nTags: Rifle Frolic and Frontier Skills at Fort Boonesborough\, Fort Boonesborough Rifle Frolic\, Fort Boonesborough Frontier Skills \nView other Living History Events

Cancelled for 2019. \n\nDollinger Farm Civil War Reenactment\nOn the third full weekend (Saturday & Sunday) in October\, green farm grounds will fill with tents housing Confederate and Union soldiers. An Illinois pumpkin farm will become a Virginia creek on April 6\, 1865\, or some other famous Civil War Battle and Battlefield that determined the fate of our nation. As thousands of onlookers watch hundreds of reenactors armed with rifles and cannons portray carefully choreographed battles of the Civil War. \nPreparing for the Battle Reenactment\nBefore the Saturday afternoon battle commenced up the hill at the farm\, Union infantrymen prepare for what they know will be a long march to the battlefield and a tough battle. They pack up their ammunition pouches and fill their knapsacks with food and gear. As in the days of the real battle\, infantrymen never knew where they would end up following the battle\, so they carried everything with them\, including bedding. \n \nWhile they prepared themselves\, women and children lined the gravel path wearing period clothing\, waiting to cheer on the soldiers as they marched past. It was a tradition of the time to support the men and see them off. \nVisitors will want to arrive at least 1/2 hour early to walk up the hill to the Battlefield. The Battle scenes are the same on both days\, so choose whichever day fits your schedule. Tickets are required for the battle and are available online on the event site (see link at right). \nBattle Times\n2:00 p.m. – Saturday\n2:00 p.m. – Sunday\n* Allow at least 1/2 hour to walk up the hill to the Battlefield!

Grandma’s house (located next to the Bee Barn) was formerly known as Rutherford’s Tavern and served as a stop on the stagecoach line. \nVisitors are invited to take a walk through history and visit the old Catholic Cemetery on the hill\, a place where many stories rest.

Three forts were consecutively built between 1720 and 1755\, bearing witness to the French colonial empire established in the Mississippi basin during the XVIIIth century. Abandoned for many decades\, it was during the wave of historical site development in the first half of the XXth century that the state of Illinois partially rebuilt it to perpetuate the memory of the French presence in the region. \nAlthough it was constructed out of stone\, the new fort was not made to resist grand artillery fire; rather\, it was made to resist native sieges. After the signature of the Treaty of Paris in 1763\, officialising the French defeat at the end of the Seven Years’ War\, Fort de Chartres wound up in British hands and was renamed Fort Cavendish. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next \nTags: Fort De Chartres French and Indian War Encampment\, Fort De Chartres French & Indian War Encampment\,French and Indian War Reenactment \nView Other Fort de Chartres Events\nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Encampments

John Redd in 1775\, “Martin’s Fort was on Martin’s Creek. The fort was located on the north side of the creek. There were some five or six cabins; these built some 20 feet apart with strong stockades between. In these stockades there were port holes. The station contained about half an acre of ground. There were two fine springs near the station on its north side.” At one point\, Martins Station was the westernmost fort in the nation. The park literature explains\, “Established in the spring of 1775 by Captain Joseph Martin of Albermarle County\, Virginia\, Martin’s Station played a key role in the settlement of the American West.” The park literature further explains\, “Historic Martin’s Station lives on today in the nation’s most authentically re-created frontier fort. The hand-hewn structures were painstakingly built by historical interpreters using native materials and historically accurate tools. Nestled at the base of the majestic Cumberland Mountains in the far southwest corner of Virginia\, Wilderness Road State Park offers visitors a unique natural and historic experience that will create wonderful memories for years to come.” \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Martins Station Fall Encampment at the Wilderness Road State Park in Ewing\, Virginia. \nTags: Martins Station Fall Encampment\, Martin’s Station Fall Encampment\, Revolutionary War Muster\, Colonial Market Fair\, 18th Century Market Fair \nView other Musters & Encampmenets\nView other Market Fair & Trade Fair Events
