Be transported back in time to the 1770s as the British Redcoats and Woodland Indians battle American Militia Sharpshooters in the American War of Independence.  Stroll through the encampment and meet the troops but make sure to take cover when the dramatic skirmishes begin.

With live Bluegrass and American Folk music, traditional Punch and Judy Shows and American games, this makes a great first day out for the summer!
