Lewis & Clark Heritage Days

From Lewis & Clark Heritage Days Website:

Lewis and Clark Heritage Days are held the third weekend in May each year in Historic Saint Charles, Missouri. For 2014 the dates are May 17 & 18. The first celebration in Saint Charles of Lewis and Clark's exploration of the Louisiana Purchase was in 1979 and has been held each year since. The reenactment includes a grand parade, military encampment, fife and drum corps muster, musket and cannon demonstrations, a skillet throw, and period music, food and wares. Each day begins with the raising of colors and the day ends with retreat and the lowering of colors. The Discovery Expedition of Saint Charles is camped on site in Frontier Park, and the Lewis & Clark Boathouse is just steps away, where the Discovery Expedition of Saint Charles boats are on display.
