Northwest Fur Post's Fall Gathering
Every year, the Northwest Fur Post outside of Pine City hosts a recreation of the Fort's annual Fall Gathering from the late 1700s-early 1800's era, when Native Americans, Voyageurs, Scottish-Canadian traders, and ordinary folks all gathered at the fort to celebrate the harvest season with feasting, trading, music, dances, and any other way they could think of to have fun! Join Sherry and Don on Sunday afternoon, September 19th, as they play music of the harpsichord and wooden flute from the 1805 era. Admission at the gate (check the MN Historical Society website, www.MNHS.org, for full information on the event; go to "Northwest Fur Post" within the site). We'll play at probably 12:30 and 2:30 p.m. (exact times posted soon). The fort is fun, family-friendly, and full of fascinating historical exhibits. There will be food for sale and traders will be on site with fur trade goods and a voyeguer-style encampment. Come listen to the music hits of the day that Lord Nelson (and Jane Austen) would have whistled! Event is two days; we are there SUNDAY afternoon only.
