A few photos from our Open House weekend, featuring reenactors, vehicles and weapons demonstrations. Considering it is 2020 and Covid-19 forced us to cancel the event in May we had a strong turnout of visitors. We hope everyone who attended had an enjoyable and informative time.

Cool building. Check it out.
