The fort will be transformed into a bustling military camp with soldiers, sailors and civilians.

Activities will include cannon salutes, arms drills, fife and drum concerts, a “tactical” at Gas House Beach and a last-man-standing contest. New this year is a children’s area at the top of the fort with activities like making corn husk dolls.

The event is rain or shine. The full schedule can be found online at gloversregiment.org.
