Formerly our World War II Weekend, we are excited to announce Patriots and Heroes Weekend will take place on September 13-14, 2025.
Join us to honor our veterans of all eras and learn about their stories. From the Revolutionary War, to the Civil War, to World War II, to Vietnam, help us pay homage to all who have fought for our country and share their history with the next generation.
The weekend will include reenactor camps and demonstrations, many interactive displays, a fantastic lineup of speakers, military vehicles, a chance to meet and thank local veterans in person, food trucks, kids activities and more!
Our expanded scope means we are now looking for reenactors of all eras! If you interpret Revolutionary War, Civil War, World War II or World War II, we'd love to have you join us to give our visitors an immersive experience. The registration form can be found on our website or contact us for more information.
Check back soon for more details and our speaker schedule.
In connection with this event, we will also be holding a 1940s Swing Dance on Saturday evening, September 13, at St. Jude Hall in Glen Dale. Put on your dancing shoes and prepare to be serenaded by Matt Hill and Friends playing all your swing favorites. Vintage attire is encouraged but not required. Dancers and watchers both welcome! Snacks and root beer floats will be available for purchase. Tickets will be $10 per person at the door, all veterans receive free admission.
