Kids will enjoy seeing people dressed in period costume on our special event weekends and holiday weekends during the summer. They will like to hear the roar of artillery, learn how Civil War soldiers lived during Civil War weekend, or watch and perhaps join in American Indian dancing during American Indian Heritage weekend.
On the 4th of July weekend we always have games for kids to participate in. Hoop and roll contests, tug of wars, and sack races entertain children and adults alike.
Occasionally, we will bring soldiers with horses in for special events. And don't forget our spring education programs which are specially geared toward visiting school groups.

Did You Know?
The fort was named for General Winfield Scott, who was the commander of all American armies in the 1840s. General Scott was none too happy about it and said that it was done without his knowledge and against his wishes.
