Should I bring any tools or supplies?
We urge volunteers to dress for the weather-- Reenactors' Spring Drill will take place rain or shine. Early April in the Missouri southeastern Ozark Mountains can be either cold and wet OR mild and pleasant. Sometimes both during the same day.
Is there a rain date?
In the instance of inclement weather, Park Day will continue as planned.
