War reenactment at Fort Laurens

BOLIVAR, Ohio — Ohio’s only Revolutionary War-era fort, Fort Laurens, will host its 48th annual Revolutionary War Reenactment, July 15 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and July 16 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Visitors can watch a mock skirmish for American Independence with volunteer reenactors from the Brigade of the American Revolution.

Founded in 1962, the Brigade is a national organization with more than 1,000 member reenactors and living history interpreters. The event includes a variety of demonstrations on 18th century cooking, medicine, skirmish and artillery, as well as interactions with those portraying Colonial and British soldiers of the era.

Food, merchandise vendors, musical entertainment and kid’s activities also are featured. Admission is $10 for adults and free for children 12 and under, with all proceeds being applied to the preservation and educational efforts of Fort Laurens. Museum access is included in the ticket price.

More information is available at fortlaurensmuseum.org or by calling 330-874-2059.

Fort Laurens is Ohio’s only Revolutionary War fort and features a museum, memorial, Tomb of the Unknown Patriot and visible outline of the original fort. The site was considered a stepping stone across the West to stage an attack on the British at Fort Detroit during the American Revolution.

Fundraising and plans are currently underway by the Friends of Fort Laurens Foundation to eventually rebuild the fort. Along with Historic Zoar Village, Fort Laurens is managed by the Zoar Community Association.
