Easton Heritage Day 2018

Once again the Frontier Guard took part in Easton’s Heritage Day festival.  This celebration commemorates the reading of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, but it features reenactors from all eras of Easton’s history, with a military timeline that spans the gamut from the French and Indian War to the Vietnam War, if not beyond.

We had our customary spot at the corner of the central square, and throughout the course of the day, we talked to hundreds of people and posed for dozens of photographs.  In fact, we hadn’t even gotten our gear unloaded before a photographer was asking my daughter to pose for a photo.

Of course, my son was in demand as well, as were we all....

There were a host of other craftsmen, military reenactors, singers, and vendors, as well as personalities like Abraham Lincoln and General Pershing (this year complete with horse), and a great attendance by the public. The weather cooperated, everyone had a great time, and it was another great event.
