French Traders in Arkansas<\/strong>
In 1783, a French trader named Fabre settled on a bluff above the Ouachita River and called the settlement \u201cEcore Fabre,\u201d which is the present city of Camden, Arkansas. In honor of Fabre, White Oak Lake State Park is hosting the Annual French Colonial Days event. Come discover history by interacting with the reenactors.<\/p>\n

About the Early Arkansas Reenactors Association (EARA)<\/strong>
The Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism is partnering with the Early Arkansas Reenactors Association (EARA) to present the French Colonial Days at White Oak Lake State Park. The EARA members provide our encampment and demonstrate the everyday life skills of early settlers. Our Leslie Mountain Man Rendezvous is a sanctioned event of the Early Arkansas Reenactors Association. This group of dedicated men and women take reenacting seriously. They camp in period tents, dress in period clothing, and they live for the week just like the early fur traders and settlers did.<\/p>\n
