This annual three-day event, held the third weekend in June, is filled with activities common to Illinois prior to 1840. The fun includes period craft demonstrators, games, music, tours of the Statehouse, and other period activities. Highlights are an old-fashioned ham and bean supper on the Statehouse lawn, a children's activity area, and The Ritter Reproductions muzzle loaders, who set up an 1800's camp and demonstrate many activities of the period, including black powder gun firing, tomahawk throwing, open fire cooking and survival skills.
