    Proceeds from this festival benefit the restoration efforts of the fort. It's a fantastic festival with a totally unique atmosphere, so come out! It's well worth the drive! Here are a few pics from last year. It's not a specific Celtic event, but more of a general historically related event:



    Romans and Celts... and age old struggle. The lady in the arisaid is one of the Ren Scots.



    Think the campers were thrilled?



    You guessed it! Ren Scot!



    My personal favorite feature- a small contingent of Buffalo Soldiers raise and lower the flag:



    As you can clearly see, there are reenactors from every era of history, from the Romans all the way to the Fur Trapper era.

    Would like to be there but we'll be in the middle of installing a wood floor in the house we are closing on next week.

    Well, that's a good reason. I'll let it slide. I'll take lots of pictures, now that I have a working camera again! Those pics were all taken on my point-and-hope.
