(Natives/French vs. English/Dutch). Site offers the use of the reconstructed
prehistoric houses for Native and French re-enactors, as space allows.
Dutch/English are encamped close to the village in a lightly wooded

is still looking to attract more; please contact them with anyone appropriate.
Possible stipend, free powder, or gas this year; depends on size of
