"Bringing Local History To Life" Enabling the public to engage with wonderful and exciting history through re-enactment
The Virginia Reel
at The Andrew Jackson Centre, 4th July 2012
While we like to educate the public on how we used to live, we also like to enjoy ourselves. We were unaware we were going to be asked to do this but we think we did very well, under the circumstances
We love to hear your comments. Here are some from past events.
