These pictures are from the younger kids group that went to Fort Howard.
Aren't we all glad that we no longer have to cook like this?!
The corn cakes still turned out yummy.
Wood was needed for the fire to cook the meal.
This picture is when the kids were in the school house. Slates were on the desks.
The kids got a chance to practice marching as if they were in the military. Keeping a straight line isn't as easy as it looks. Master Sergeant was trying to keep order.
This is an authentic sword from the the time period. It weighed 12 pounds and was surprisingly heavy. The sword belonged to Master Sergeant. He let the kids hold it to get a feel for what a real sword is like.
JJ is getting a chance to help mix in the ingredients for the corn cakes.
