- **Event Name**: U.S. 250 - The Forgotten Battle
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 30 May, 2026 at 10:00 am (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: Sainte Geneviève’s America 250 Festival unfolds May 30–31 as a spirited, two-day tribute to the Revolutionary era, paired with the town’s annual remembrance of the Forgotten Battle of Fort San Carlos—the farthest-west battle of the Revolution. The weekend gathers a remarkable ensemble: George Washington reenactor Dan Shippey from Mount Vernon, the foremost Bernardo de Gálvez interpreter, and British, Spanish, French, and Osage participants representing the people who once moved through this stretch of the Mississippi Valley. Streets will fill with drum-and-fife echoes, regimental drills, hands-on musket firing, era-specific food tastings, and the chance for visitors to sign a ceremonial Declaration of Independence.

Saturday night brings a full period ball, while Sunday lifts the curtain on a period fashion show—making the past feel startlingly present. The celebration also sets the stage for two regional favorites soon to follow: the Rendezvous at Fort de Chartres in Prairie du Rocher and Sainte Geneviève’s own French Heritage Festival, creating a corridor of living history along the river.
