Frontier Spirit 1799

A tent village shows the life of the early settlers with demonstrations by skilled craftsmen of cooking, soap making, blacksmithing, spinning, weaving and more.

The large marquis tent provides a place for music by many musicians on various period instruments, speeches by local dignitaries and various skits. Games and activities for children are also part of the village entertainment.

Sunday church service by a circuit preacher will be held at 9 am on Sunday morning. 

Concessions are available, including snacks, drinks and food-including bean soup cooked in iron kettles over an open fire.

The village is open from 10:00am to 5:00pm both days. This is a free event, but donations are greatly appreciated. See more details at the website.
