Drums Along the Maumee
See and hear fife and drum corps from across the country play military music from the 1750s through the War of 1812. The musicians perform with authentic wooden fifes and rope tensions drums. Music starts at 10 a.m. both days and the corps will perform as a massed band at 4 p.m. each afternoon. War of 1812 soldiers and civilians will provide demonstrations of weapons, camp life and provide hands-on activities for the kids.
Period dancing from the Early American period returns this year. The public is encouraged to participate. No experience, costuming or partner is required. Our experienced callers will guide you through the dances. Just bring your interest and enthusiasm.
