The Spelling Bee will include chalkboards, chalk, washcloth erasers, and a variety of words especially chosen for those specific age groups. Ms. Roeth, J.R. Clarke Library director, will lead and encourage all participants to “spell out-loud, so others can hear you!” We will also be using those new-fangled microphones to help everyone in the crowd hearken to our superb spellers!

The questions for the History Bee will be from histories of Miami/Darke Counties and the Village of Covington and the surrounding area. There will be two divisions of this bee: Children going into grades 7-12 and adults (ages 18 and over). If you are interested, please see the local history books in the J.R. Clarke Alcove or refer to the websites listed below. In order to narrow down the time period, most questions are from 1800’s thru The Great Depression. Winners will also receive a 2019 Fort Rowdy medallion.

Sign-up to participate in either or both of these Bees will be held at the Main Stage at 1:45 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 31. https://www.funtrivia.com/en/History/Ohio-5525.html https://www.triviaplaying.com/443-Ohio-Trivia-Quiz-Questionsanswers.htm http://www.softschools.com/quizzes/history/ohio_history/quiz5187.html https://www.50states.com/facts/ohio.htm http://www.ohioweblibrary.org/ http://covington-oh.gov/ ®®® UniQUE sHoPPinG The Gathering will have a wide variety of crafters, vendors, trade demonstrators, and camp traders on both sides of the river.

Service dogs, of course, are allowed.

FORT ROWDY GATHERING OPENING CEREMONIES SET FOR AUG. 31 Opening ceremonies for the 2019 Fort Rowdy Gathering will begin at 10 a.m.

Saturday, August 31, on the main stage in the Covington Community Park.

Amazing Grace will be played on the bagpipes by Kim Trytten and Sean Schultzy.

Following the Flag Raising, the Covington Marching Band will play the National Anthem. The festival committee would like to welcome all state and local dignitaries, the 2019 Grand Marshals, area Vietnam Era Veterans, and the public to the 27th Gathering.

Welcome to the 2019 Fort Rowdy Gathering!

Another year has rolled around and it’s time for the Fort Rowdy Gathering, to be held Saturday, Aug. 31 thru Monday, Sept. 2, at the Covington Community Park.

The Gathering is FREE and offers SHUTTLE BUS SERVICE from Covington High School to the park every 1/2 hour.

Shuttle is handicapped accessible.

DR. BRIAN J. OLSON

When arriving at the park you will enter the present-day side where you can enjoy arts and crafts, entertainment, lots of good food, and things for the children to enjoy. Also joining us this year is Annie the Highway Cow and her friends (never know which friends she decides to bring along). They will also be bringing their merchandise with them.

Cross the 208 ft. portable bridge spanning the Stillwater River, entering into the bygone years of the late 1700's.

In this encampment the visitors will find campers living as they did in that era and enjoy the aroma of campfires and food being prepared over open fires. Visitors can watch campers participate in games of the same era.

I would like to thank all of the Board members, campers, family, and volunteers for all their hard work to make this event a success.

Come and enjoy seeing old friends and making new friends and wonderful memories.

Annette Miller, Chairman

Vietnam War Era Veterans Honored as 2019 Grand Marshals

! !

The Fort Rowdy Gathering Board would like to welcome our 2019 Grand Marshals, all Vietnam War Era Veterans from Covington, Bradford, Pleasant Hill, and our Encampment. Your service and sacrifices have not gone unnoticed.

The Vietnam War Era was from November 1, 1955, to the fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975. Direct U.S. involvement was from August 5, 1964 – March 28, 1973. The war was considered a Cold War era proxywar. The war was during a time of great social upheaval in America, dividing the country in both support and opposition to the war.

The returning military members were in a unique position compared to other wars that came before. There were no “welcome home” parades or large gatherings of the public. In other conflicts, which had large demobilizations, units and companies returned together. The service members from Vietnam came back by themselves, usually after a one-year deployment. As one person was shipped off to fight, another was returning home. Many were sent back for multiple rotations.

During the Vietnam War era, 9,087,000 military personnel served on active duty, both “in country” and as support in other areas. More than 58,000 U.S. military personnel died as a result of the conflict. As of February 2019, The American War Library estimates that approximately 774,000 Americans who served during Vietnam are alive today. As of 2017, there are 1,611 Americans still unaccounted for from the Vietnam War. Locally, our military are supported by three service organizations: VFW Post 4235, AmVets Post 66, and American Legion Post 80.

It is a great honor to recognize those who served our country. We wish to give a big “Thank You” for your service and dedication to the United States.
