Fabulous Revolutionary War Weekend!

We had an amazing two days back in the 18th century with our first-ever Revolutionary War Weekend. Thanks to Joe Ling and his many friends among the re-enactment community, more than 100 people truly brought French Azilum back in time.

Visitors thrilled to musket fire, skirmishes in the tall grass, expeditions to the river, and more. They learned how to hold a musket and march in formation, and there was plenty of time to visit with the re-enactors and see their camp.

Mark your calendars for our last weekend in August, 2026, when the Revolutionary War will once again come to French Azilum! Meanwhile, some photos to whet your appetites...
