The Department of East Tennessee (DET) will be invading Tipton-Haynes State Historic Site on Saturday, March 28. Have you ever wondered what camp life was like during the Civil War? Come and learn as reenactors from the DET camp, drill, march, and conduct weapons demonstrations. Visitors will be able to study how soldiers lived in camp, examine different types of uniforms, watch how soldiers drilled, hear the numerous commands of the officers, see the various weapons carried during the war, and so much more. Gates will be open to the public from 9am till 4pm. Infantry drill for the public, kids and adults, will also be offered. Bring a picnic and simply enjoy the day as you step back in time to the Civil War. Also, come and explore the eleven historic buildings, cave, and nature trail. The historic home of the Confederate Senator Landon Carter Haynes will be open for visitors to tour through.
Admission is $6 for adults and $3 for children. Tipton-Haynes members are free!
