The first weekend in June\, Fort de Chartres State Historic Site hosts the largest rendezvous in Illinois or the Midwest with over a thousand participants\, hundreds of encampments\, and thousands of visitors joining in on the festivities. Based on the traditional French fur trapper’s rendezvous where trappers and traders would meet at a predetermined location to trade furs for necessities\, these rendezvous were the highlight of the fur trapper’s year and now the Fort De Chartres Summer Rendezvous is the highlight of Fort de Chartres’s extensive calendar of historical events and activities. \n\nFort De Chartres Summer Rendezvous\nThe Annual Fort De Chartres Summer Rendezvous offers participants and visitors alike a glimpse into the period from 1740-1840\, a part of Illinois’ past when it was governed not only by France but by Great Britain and the United States as well. Costumed reenactors portray a variety of personas including colonial military units\, mountain men\, Native Americans\, settlers\, merchants\, and more. Historical demonstrations are located at various locations on the grounds and there are periodic demonstrations that include period music\, military drills\, and musket and cannon competitions. \n@ Fort de Chartres State Historic Site\, at 1350 IL Route 155\, 4 miles west of Prairie du Rocher. The event is open and free to general public with special event parking for this event just $5 a car. Donations welcomed. For more information contact the site at (618) 284-7230 or email lesamisdufortdechartres@gmail.com. \nThe two-day popular Annual Fort De Chartres Summer Rendezvous features shooting competitions\, military drills\, dancing\, music\, food\, and traders of eighteenth-century-style goods. The boom of cannons\, the smell of campfires and a parade of colorful uniforms will transport visitors back to the 1700s. The Rendezvous features 18th century military units\, traditional craft demonstrations\, period music and dancing\, black powder shooting events and cannon firings – all from the time when France controlled what is now Illinois. Visitors can try their hand at throwing a tomahawk\, buy hand-made crafts\, learn about French kitchen gardens\, and watch swordsmen duel\, taste delicious food and much more. \nFort De Chartres Summer Rendezvous Mini-Gallery\n[/fusion_gallery]\n \nAs Fort de Chartres is an Illinois Historic Preservation Agency site\, there is a wide variety of interpretive activities that can be found throughout the grounds. These activities run continuously throughout both days. In the Native Crafts area\, visitors can learn first hand the arts of bow and arrow making\, hide tanning\, basket weaving\, the use of native foods and herbs\, pottery\, the construction of wigwams\, and the history of how and why the fur trade became such an important frontier industry. There are also archery demonstrations and competitions. \nThe Colonial Area features demonstrations that include spinning\, dyeing\, the use of looms\, woodworking\, weaving\, quilting\, rope making\, coopering\, and blacksmiths. Located in the Fort buildings themselves are a French Patron (River Boatman\,) a French Marines quarters\, a Jesuit missionary in the Fort’s Chapel\, and the Piethman Museum. A French Colonial garden\, oxen\, and baked goods for sale from a working stone oven can be found near the demonstration areas. Throughout the grounds are demonstrations by independent merchants illustrating their skills\, and displaying and selling their creations. \nFort de Chartres began as a French military outpost. The reconstructed stone fort represents the third fort built by the French\, the first two wooden forts having been destroyed by the Mississippi River. It was this stone fort that the French turned over to the British in 1765 after the end of the French and Indian War. The British abandoned this fort\, moving their territorial headquarters to the nearby town of Kaskaskia. The abandoned stone fort was visited by George Rogers Clark during his expedition during the Revolutionary War. Representing this military tradition are a number of military reenactment units and marching bands representing all three colonial powers. Rifle\, musket\, and artillery competitions are all part of the scheduled programs. \nPeriod music can be found at any time during Fort De Chartres Summer Rendezvous. A center stage is set up within the fort and features various musical groups throughout the day. Many of these groups can be found entertaining visitors throughout the grounds when they are not featured on the main stage. In addition marching military bands with drums\, flutes\, bagpipes\, and other instruments can be seen patrolling the grounds. \nHundreds of tents\, teepees\, and other primitive shelters become the weekend home for the over one thousand reenactors who come to the Fort De Chartres June Rendezvous from across the country. Visitors can gain a lot of insight into the life styles of the fur trapping era by exploring the Primitive Camp. The reenactors are a friendly bunch and are happy to talk about the specifics of their camp and the personas they portray. Sutlers\, merchants\, and trade blankets are located throughout the grounds selling many period related goods that are only available at this type of event. \n \nLocation\nFort de Chartres State Historic Site\n350 State Route 155\nPrairie du Rocher\, IL 62277\nDirections: 4 miles west of Prairie du Rocher\, about an hours drive south of St. Louis.

Talk to anybody in costume to get information on the list item you’re looking for and get them to sign the form. When leaving\, the child may bring the completed sheet back to the trading post to trade for an item. The voyageur rendezvous is fun for all ages\, and it’s immersive — sights\, sounds\, smells and activities of that historic period. \nHours: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday\nAdmission: $5.00 with children 5 and younger admitted free \nVoyageur Rendezvous Highlights\nEvent Highlights include Opening and Closing Ceremonies • Arrival of Voyageurs by canoe • Trade Session with the Native Americans • Storytelling • Tomahawk Throw • Fashion Show • Hot Food\, Cold Sarsaparilla and more. Saturday’s scheduled activities include canoe “bobber races” and storytelling. While on Sunday there will be a period clothing fashion show\, following which the public will be invited to join in historic dances\, accompanied by the fife and drum corps. There will also be historic games and make-and-take projects at the trading post\, tomahawk throwing for older children\, and fife and drum music on both days. Food will be available at the site and there will also be a vendor of period items. \nDaily Opening Ceremony\nAn opening ceremony begins the historical reenactment festivities each day at 10:30 a.m. and presents some perspective to the event. The British military\, French military and civilian re-enactors come from the camps and the Native Americans arrive. They meet at the flag pole. One of the re-enactors holds up a wampum belt in a gesture of welcome. Then three flags are raised: the French\, British and historical American flag of the time as the fife and drum corps plays the song of each nation from that historical period. A little later\, at 11:30 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday\, the voyageurs arrive. Their landings are another highlight of the event as they paddle in with their big canoes loaded with goods. \nLocation\nGrand Kankakee Marsh County Park\n21690 Range Line Road\nHebron\, IN 46341\n(219) 552-0033 \nFor More Information\nLake County Parks & Rec: Call 219-769-7275; Email info@lakecountyparks.com \n \nWho were these Voyageurs?\nTo equate the voyageurs of the fur trade era in the Great Lakes area to something today\, consider all the trucks on today’s roads. When voyageurs plied the area waters this was the wilderness. The rivers then were like the highways today\, and were very important to the history and the development and the economic growth in the area. \nHistorically\, the voyageurs landed and exchanged gifts with the natives first\, before any trading. They might spend a whole day exchanging gifts\, generally with the men\, after which most of the trading would be done with the women. The natives had the furs and the number one item the voyageurs offered was textiles. \nWhat is the Difference in a Mountain Man Rendezvous and Voyageur Rendezvous?\n \nSchool Day: Friday\nAdvance reservation required.\nMorning tour time slot: 9:30 – 11:30 a.m.\nAfternoon tour time slot: Noon – 2 p.m.\nMinimum (20 students); Maximum (140 students) per time slot\n$2 per person\, including chaperones and teachers; $20 minimum\nReservations and deposit required at least ten business days in advance\nAppropriate for 4th – 6th grade curriculum\nReserve your time slot now.

Join us at the Crossroads this May! \nHistory of the Crossroads\nThe Township and Village of Saukville are located at the ancient crossroads of two major American Indian trails: the old Decorah Road and the old Green Bay Road. The Decorah Road became the present-day Wisconsin Highway 33\, and the old Green Bay Road became the road that is now part of the southern portion of Ozaukee County Highway O and the northern portion of Ozaukee County Highway W. The Indian trails crossed where the Milwaukee River makes an unusual bending loop\, forming a unique river peninsula.[su_accordion][su_spoiler title=”Read More”]\nThe Green Bay Trail\, which had a great impact on the settlement of southeast Wisconsin and the State\, overall\, connected Fort Howard at Green Bay with Fort Dearborn in Chicago\, and ran through Saukville. This system of trails extended from Hudson Bay all the way to Florida. In 1993\, the Wisconsin State Legislature designated the Green Bay Trail route\, from the Illinois State line to Green Bay\, an official heritage route\, the “Green Bay Ethnic Trail.”\n* From the Village of Saukville Downtown Revitalization Plan[/su_spoiler][/su_accordion] \n \nAbout the Sponsor\nThe Saukville Crossroads Rendezvous is presented by the Saukville Historical Society\, a 501 (c) (3) organization affiliated with the State Historical Society of Wisconsin.

Far different from the original mountain men rendezvous\, it was organized as a family event. Then called the Black Powder Rendezvous\, it was moderately successful\, attracting about 500 people. It was moved to its present location in 1986 due to the need for additional space and to take advantage of the natural beauty of the site a well as the traditional significance of the river in the lives of early settlers. \nThe first three rendezvous were sponsored and organized by the Hickory County Historical Society. During those years it grew tremendously\, both in scope and popularity. Due to this rapid growth and its increasing complexity\, a new organization\, the Pomme de Terre Rendezvous Association was formed to sponsor the event. The Rendezvous Association\, made up of local people and organizations interested in ensuring that area history is preserved. One way of doing so is through such annual events as the Pomme de Terre Rendezvous. In 2006\, the Hermitage Lions Club assumed the overall sponsorship of the event that is organized and operated by the Rendezvous Committee. \nMark your calendar today so you don’t miss the next Pomme de Terre Rendezvous at Lake Outlet Park in Carson’s Corner\, Missouri. \n \nTags: Muzzleloader \, Pomme de Terre Mountain Man Rendezvous\, Pomme de Terre Voyageur Rendezvous\, Missouri Rendezvous\, Missouri Voyageur Rendezvous\, Missouri Mountain Man Rendezvous \nView other Fur-Trade-Era Rendezvous URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/pomme-de-terre-rendezvous/ LOCATION:Pomme de Terre Lake Outlet Park\, County Road 218\, Hermitage\, MO\, 65668\, United States CATEGORIES:0-Regular Recurranace,Living History Events,Missouri Rendezvous,Mountain Man Rendezvous,Same week in month,Voyageur Rendezvous or Encampment ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Pomme-de-Terre-Rendezvous-01-850x567.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20190427 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20190429 DTSTAMP:20260421T170044 CREATED:20160814T123627Z LAST-MODIFIED:20190125T224532Z UID:7237-1556323200-1556495999@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Gathering at Macktown DESCRIPTION:2019 Gathering at Macktown\n\nRate This Event\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nThe Annual Gathering at Macktown on April 27-28\, 2019 at Macktown Living History Educational Center in Rockton\, Illinois lets you experience pre-1850s frontier life.

Gates are open to the public Saturday and Sunday 9a – 5p. A small gate fee applies. All proceeds from the gate go towards the upkeep of Fort Crevecoeur Park. \nIf you wish to be a participant in this event and are new to our gathering family please feel free to contact us for details; we would love to have you join us. \nExperience frontier life from 1680 to 1850 at the Fort Crevecoeur Fall Rendezvous. The two-day event brings together history enthusiasts and curious spectators to raise money and awareness of the fort’s history. \nLa Salle and his men built the original fort in 1680 while constructing a boat to travel the Mississippi River. According to historians\, the fort was burned down. The exact location of the original fort has been the subject of great debate since Peoria was founded. A reconstructed fort now commemorates Illinois’ first European-built structure. \nTwice a year in spring and fall\, the not-for-profit Fort Crevecoeur\, Inc. holds Rendezvous Days as a main fundraiser to maintain the fort and surrounding park. But the primary goal of the event is to give people a taste of life in the old days\, Hanse said. \nMen and women dressed as traders and Native Americans sold items like arrowheads\, walking sticks and beaded jewelry. Tents and tepees dotted the park and participants demonstrated trades like old-fashioned rope making and knife crafting. \nLocation\nFort Crevecoeur Park\n301 Lawnridge Dr\,\nCreve Coeur\, IL 61610\nPhone:(309) 694-3193 \nContact\nFort Crevecoeur Park Office\n309-694-3193 \n \nAbout Fort Crevecoeur Park\nFort Crevecoeur Park is located near Peoria and includes a reconstructed Fort Crevecoeur (about nine miles from the original location)\, a museum and a campground. French explorer Robert de La Salle (1643-87) helped the Peoria Indians build a fort in 1860 to defend themselves against the Iroquois. LaSalle made a deal with the local tribes to protect them from the Iroquois tribal league. LaSalle fostered good relationships with the tribes—Fort Creve Coeur wasn’t around too long though—this original site quickly became abandoned as Tonti left to fortify Starved Rock. Tonti’s mission to Starved Rock was to only end in failure though. However\, the Fort Crevecoeur’s seven man garrison quit their fort\, destroyed the fortifications\, and made a trek to Canada. \nMark your calendar today so you won’t miss the next Fort Crevecoeur Fall Rendezvous and Gathering at Fort Crevecoeur Park in Creve Couer\, Illinois. \nTags: Fort Crevecoeur Fall Rendezvous\, Fort Crevecoeur Fall Rendezvous & Gathering\, Fort Crevecoeur Rendezvous\, Illinois Rendezvous\, Illinois Voyageur Rendezvous\, Voyageur Rendezvous \nView other French & Indian War Reenactments and Other Events\nView other Buckskinner Rendezvous URL:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/event/fort-crevecoeur-fall-rendezvous/ LOCATION:Fort Crevecoeur Park\, 301 Lawnridge Drive\, Creve Coeur\, IL\, 61610\, United States CATEGORIES:0-Regular Recurranace,Illinois Rendezvous,Living History Events,Mountain Man Rendezvous,Same week in month,Voyageur Rendezvous or Encampment ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.crazycrow.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Fort-Crevecoeur-01-850x567.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="":MAILTO:ftcrevecoeur@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170527 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170529 DTSTAMP:20260421T170044 CREATED:20170516T122919Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170516T142552Z UID:14066-1495843200-1496015999@www.crazycrow.com SUMMARY:Edmonton House Brigade Skills of the Fur Trade Challenge DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 7th Annual Edmonton House Brigade Skills of the Fur Trade Challenge on May 27–28\, 2017 at the Sherwood Park Fish and Game Association near Edmonton\, Alberta\, Canada.
