FORT SCOTT, Kan. — The Fort Scott National Historic Site is hosting its 39th Annual Civil War Encampment, Saturday and Sunday, April 23 and 24, 2022. Experience cooking on the open fire, artillery and infantry troops preparing for battle, smell bread baking, participate in discussions about troop and refugee support, step back in time while playing period games, and try writing with quills and ink. “We are grateful to have the generous support and participation from the Holms Brigade, Wichita Boy Scout Troop 704, Friends of Fort Scott, Inc., and plenty of new and old Fort Scott National Historic Site volunteers alike,” said Acting Superintendent Carl Brenner.
