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 URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/colonel-knox-is-now-at-ticonderoga/ LOCATION:Fort Ticonderoga\, 100 Fort Ti Road\, Ticonderoga\, NY\, 12883\, United States CATEGORIES:American Revolutionary War Reenactment,Historic American Forts,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/The-Noble-Train-Begins-01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Fort Ticonderoga- Living History & Reenactments":MAILTO:info@fort-ticonderoga.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181201 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181203 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20160812T130724Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180817T212606Z UID:7139-1543622400-1543795199@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Mile Branch Settlement Christmas DESCRIPTION:2018 Mile Branch Settlement Christmas\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nJoin us for Mile Branch Settlement Christmas on December 1-2\, 2018 at the Mile Branch Settlement Christmas located at the Washington Parish Fairgrounds in Franklinton\, Louisiana.

Mile Branch Settlement is open only twice each year during the Washington Parish Fair in the third week of October and during the Pioneer Christmas celebration\, held the first weekend of December. \n \nAbout 150 years ago\, a small community in Washington Parish would have looked a lot like this.

A time where life coursed much slower like the bordering creek for which the settlement was named. You will find 19th century attired volunteers serving sassafras tea with gingerbread\, grinding corn into meal or grits\, cutting huge hoop-cheese slices\, and the extracting and cooking of cane syrup. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Mile Branch Settlement Christmas on the first weekend in December at the Mile Branch Settlement Christmas located at the Washington Parish Fairgrounds in Franklinton\, Louisiana. \n \nTags: Mile Branch Settlement Christmas\, Mile Branch Settlement \nView Other Living History Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/mile-branch-settlement-christmas/ LOCATION:Mile Branch Settlement\, Par Rd 505\, Franklinton\, LA\, 70438\, United States CATEGORIES:Battle Reenactments & Encampments,History Festivals,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Mile-Branch-Settlement-Christmas-10-1000x667.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181130 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181202 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20171120T134142Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180724T122209Z UID:19638-1543536000-1543708799@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Scott Massacre of 1817 Commemoration DESCRIPTION:2018 Scott Massacre of 1817 Commemoration\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nJoin us for the 201st Anniversary of the Scott Massacre of 1817 Commemoration on November 30 – December 1\, 2018 at River Landing Park in Chattahoochee\, Florida.

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 URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/rifle-frolic-and-frontier-skills-fort-boonesborough/ LOCATION:Fort Boonesborough State Park\, 4375 Boonesborough Road\, Richmond\, KY\, 40475\, United States CATEGORIES:Historic American Forts,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Rifle-Frolic-and-Frontier-Skills-fort-boonesboro-01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="The Fort Boonesborough Foundation":MAILTO:bill.farmer@ky.gov END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181020 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181022 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20160822T183647Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190107T203129Z UID:7466-1539993600-1540166399@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Dollinger Farm Civil War Reenactment DESCRIPTION:2019 Dollinger Farm Civil War Reenactment\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nThe 22nd Annual Dollinger Farm Civil War Reenactment on October 20-21\, 2018 at Dollinger Family Farms in Channahon\, Illinois has grown to one of the best in Illinois.

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 URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/fort-de-chartres-french-and-indian-war-encampment/ LOCATION:Fort De Chartres State Historic Site\, 1350 State Route 155\, Prairie du Rocher\, IL\, 62277\, United States CATEGORIES:0-Regular Recurranace,Battle Reenactments & Encampments,French & Indian War Reenactment,Historic American Forts,Living History Events,Same week in month,US Historic Reenactor Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Fort-De-Chartres-French-and-Indian-War-Encampment-03-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Les Amis du Fort de Chartres":MAILTO:lesamisdufortdechartres@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20181012 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181020 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20160625T160126Z LAST-MODIFIED:20171125T000640Z UID:5750-1539302400-1539993599@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Moose River Primitive Rendezous & Hunt DESCRIPTION:2018 NYSMLA Moose River Primitive Rendezous & Hunt\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nJoin us at the 27th Annual NYSMLA Moose River Primitive Rendezous & Hunt on October 12-19\, 2017 in the scenic Adirondack Mountains in the Moose River Plains Intensive Use Area\, north of Inlet\, New York.  The Moose River Primitive Rendezous offers a unique living history encampment\, letting you experience the 1740-1840 time period of the Lewis & Clark era that includes Tenting & Hunting in period clothing\, shooting demos & other promotional activities.

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 URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/martins-station-fall-encampment/ LOCATION:Historic Martins Station at Wilderness Road State Park\, 8051 Wilderness Road\, Ewing\, VA\, 24248\, United States CATEGORIES:0-Regular Recurranace,Living History Events,Market Fair,Musters and Encampmenets Reenactments,Same week in month ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Martins-Station-Fall-Encampment-02-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Friends of Wilderness Road State Park":MAILTO:WildernessRoad@dcr.virginia.gov END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20181006T100000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20181007T170000 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20160610T124234Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180727T204013Z UID:5232-1538820000-1538931600@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Fort Atkinson Living History Weekend in October DESCRIPTION:2018 Fort Atkinson Living History Weekend\n\nRate This\nEvent\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nJoin us for Fort Atkinson Living History Weekend in October on October 6-7\, 2018.

In 1860\, Nathan Williams\, whose family would maintain ownership for the next 51 years\, purchased the property. By this time the barracks had disappeared\, due to time as well as scavengers looking for a ready supply of lumber and nails. \nWith the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861\, the area around Fort Frederick once again became important militarily. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal\, which passes one-quarter mile south of the fort (the railroad did not yet exist on this side of the river)\, and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad on the opposite (then Virginia) side of the river\, became focal points of defense for the Union Army. In December the 1st Maryland Infantry (U.S.) under the command of Colonel John Kenly\, was assigned to protect the canal and guard the fords and ferries of the Potomac River between Four Locks\, to the east\, and Cherry Run\, to the west. Company H of this regiment was ordered to occupy Fort Frederick. On Christmas Day\, 1861\, these troops fought a skirmish with Confederate Cavalry. The skirmish took place along the Potomac River below the fort and the Union troops guarding the river were successful in defending the canal\, but were not able to prevent Confederates from tearing up the railroad on the other side. On January 1\, 1862 another skirmish took place at the Fort\, as Union Troops again repulsed confederates attempting to tear up the railroad. \nFort Frederick continued to be occupied\, and in January 1862\, with the 1st Maryland being redistributed to guard points further west towards Hancock\, Company D replaced Company H here. These troops remained until the end of February\, when they\, along with others\, crossed the Potomac to guard the reconstruction of the B&O Railroad. Also during this period of time Union artillery was placed at the fort and was used against the Confederates in Virginia. \nThis is the last occurrence of the fort’s use by a military command. However\, the area around the fort remained vulnerable to Confederate Raiders through the rest of the war. Hence\, troops frequently passed near the fort and at times occupied grounds now encompassed by the state park. Most notable is October 1862 when a picket of the 12th Illinois Cavalry was assigned to the canal “immediately south of old Fort Frederick.” \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Fort Frederick in the Civil War at Fort Frederick State Park in Big Pool\, Maryland. \nTags: Fort Frederick in the Civil War\, Civil War Reenactment \nView other Civil War Reenactments\, Encampments & Other Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/fort-frederick-in-the-civil-war/ LOCATION:Fort Frederick State Park\, 11100 Fort Frederick Road\, Big Pool\, MD\, 21711\, United States CATEGORIES:0-Regular Recurranace,American Civil War Reenactment,Historic American Forts,Living History Events,Same week in month ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/fort-frederick-in-the-civil-war-02-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Friends of Fort Frederick":MAILTO:info@friendsoffortfrederick.info END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20180929T080000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20180930T170000 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20160611T024358Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180727T202722Z UID:5275-1538208000-1538326800@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Blacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough DESCRIPTION:2018 Touched by the Fire-Blacksmiths Weekend\n\nRate This\nEvent\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nTouched by the Fire-Blacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough on September 29-30\, 2018 (Charcoal burn begins 9/28) at Fort Boonesborough State Park in Richmond\, Kentucky. Join the groups gathered around a blacksmith as he carefully forges iron together into what will become an item of common use in 18th century Colonial America. As he works\, he takes questions from his audience at the Touched by the Fire-Blacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough weekend. \nSee and learn about an ancient craft kept alive even to this day! During the preceding week\, blacksmiths will be here once again doing another Charcoal Burn: a week-long 24/7 project. If you have any interest in Blacksmithing\, particularly as it was in the 18th century\, we invite you to come to the Fort during Touched by the Fire-Blacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough. If you would like to volunteer to assist in the Charcoal Burn\, email ftboone@bellsouth.net. Merchants and Traders are welcome to display and sell items used during the Colonial era. This event is free to the public with regular paid admission to the fort. \nBlacksmiths will share decades of experience in forging iron\, displaying their skills in front of the crowds\, taking questions as they work. In many cases\, much of that experience has come at events such as Blacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough\, and many return to the fort each year to take part. Learn about the tools a blacksmith uses to forge items\, like the anvil. Although the anvil\, like many of the Blacksmiths tools look simple\, they are not\, having been refined through thousands of years of experience to the most useful shape. \nLearn about the heat of the fire needed to make the iron workable\, about working the iron while it is the proper color and how the experienced blacksmith holds and strike the metal to get the best effect\, and how the first 15 seconds are when Blacksmiths can do the most work on a piece. Learn the importance of the Blacksmiths “time management.” \nBlacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough\, like other events at the fort\, are sponsored by The Fort Boonesborough Foundation. The Foundation is made up of a group of dedicated individuals who volunteer their time to sustain\, foster\, and promote quality programming at Fort Boonesborough State Park and Boone’s Station Historic Site. \nAbout Fort Boonesborough\nRichard Henderson\, founder of the Transylvania Company in 1775\, chose Daniel Boone to head a party of 31 axe men to clear a path through the Cumberland Gap that would run from Long Island of the Holston River\, Tennessee\, to Otter Creek of the Kentucky River. 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 Blacksmiths Weekend 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 Touched by the Fire-Blacksmiths Weekend at Fort Boonesborough in Richmond\, KY. \nTags: Touched by the Fire-Blacksmiths Weekend\, Kentucky Blacksmith Weekend\, Kentucky Blacksmith Event \nView other Living History Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/blacksmiths-weekend-at-fort-boonesborough/ LOCATION:Fort Boonesborough State Park\, 4375 Boonesborough Road\, Richmond\, KY\, 40475\, United States CATEGORIES:Historic American Forts,Living History Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Touched-b-the-Fire-Blacksmiths-Weekend-fort-boonesboro-01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="The Fort Boonesborough Foundation":MAILTO:bill.farmer@ky.gov END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180929 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20181001 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20180913T225421Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180917T234106Z UID:27851-1538179200-1538351999@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Return To Number 4: Revolutionary War Weekend DESCRIPTION:2018 Return to Number 4: Revolutionary War Weekend\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nRelive history at the Return To Number 4: Revolutionary War Weekend on September 29-30\, 2018 at The Fort at No. 4 in Charlestown\, New Hampshire.

Penn’s Colony Festival is as unique among other festivals as the Pittsburgh region is to the nation. With an authentic focus on the French & Indian era\, that began with the 1753 journey of a 21-year-old George Washington through this region\, Penn’s Colony Festival weaves history into a colonial faire featuring a village filled with fine craftsmen. \n\nPenn’s Colony Festival\nEvents from Washington’s first\, and subsequent visits to this region\, led to the sparking of the French and Indian War which changed the course of history for America\, and the world. \nAt Penn’s Colony Festival\, the living history encampment presents re-enactors from the British\, Colonial\, Scottish\, French and Native groups which made their mark on this region during the pivotal years of the French & Indian War (1754-1760). The Encampments\, Battle Re-Enactments\, Skills Presentations and Hidden History Revelations tell the story of our region. \nPenn’s Colony Festival Marketplace is affordable quality that people trust.\nThe distinction of Penn’s Colony craftsmen is quality and variety in large number of artisans who gather once a year to showcase contemporary and traditional works for the home\, garden\, seasonal and holiday decor\, gifts and personal accessories. \nA mission for design integrity\, renewable and safe resources and American-made wares results in artisans and work that customers have trusted for 30 years. \nWhether you want a custom-made primitive kitchen cabinet\, leathersmiths handtooling an intricate design into belt\, a glass blower creating a globe ornament\, you will find it here. Among the Penn’s Colony Festival artisans you will see a potter at their wheel and a blacksmith at the forge. Watch a weaver magically reveal the colorful patterns of a floor rug on the loom. Or see how a spinner works with wool. \nYou’ll see beautiful inspired designs with the style and function you want. As an added value\, learn why these handmade in America products outperform the imports. For example\, why belts from retail stores “crack” or why our potter’s coffee mug is just more comfortable to hold. As you browse up and down one road to the next in the Penn’s Colony Village\, the experience of handmade quality will be repeated wherever you turn. \nIt is about how to find beautiful items for practically every need that are safe to use\, to wear and to enjoy. That’s why customers have trusted our artisans for 30 years. To us\, that’s the important story that never grows old at Penn’s Colony Festival and Folk Art Marketplace! \nWhen you arrive at Penn’s Colony Festival . . .\nPick up the festival handbill and look at the “Diversions and Amusements” schedule.

And there are hands on children’s activities and craftsman demonstrations throughout the festival and throughout the day. \nTake a seat at The Crown Grant Theatre\nFrom entrance gates 2 and 3 just follow Bushy Run Road to the trees. Hear the rousing tunes of life and laughter from groups such as Pint and a Half\, and Celtic Shores. You’ll be amazed by all the 18th century circus performers\, Faire Wynds can do. And this is where the roving Bagpipes will start or finish their ‘Round A bout’ marches. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Penn’s Colony Festival in Saxonburg\, Pennslyvania. \nTags: Penn’s Colony Festival\, Penn’s Colony Living History Festival\, Penn’s Colony Marketplace \nView other French & Indian War Encampments\, Reenactments & Living History Events URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/penns-colony-festival/ LOCATION:Penn’s Colony Village Grounds\, 365 Saxonburg Boulevard\, Saxonburg\, PA\, 16056\, United States CATEGORIES:0-Regular Recurranace,French & Indian War Reenactment,Living History Events,Same week in month ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Penns-Colony-Festival-03-850x567.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20180921 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20180924 DTSTAMP:20260409T094310 CREATED:20160814T161127Z LAST-MODIFIED:20180429T213742Z UID:7175-1537488000-1537747199@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Autumn Pioneer Festival DESCRIPTION:2018 Autumn Pioneer Festival in Belvidere Illinois\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nThe 37th Annual Autumn Pioneer Festival on September 21-23\, 2018\, at the Roger Gustafson Nature Center and Festival Grounds in Belvidere Illinois lets you experience aspects of life as it was from the 1700s to early 1800s. \nTravel back to the 1800’s in Illinois and learn about the lifestyles and crafts of the day.
