Dade’s Battle of 1835 (Reenactment)
This was our first reenactment and certainly made for a great time. The two-day event from 9am-5pm had the reenactment along with vendors that were selling memorabilia from that time period along with food vendors. The event was held in Bushnell Florida at Dade's Battlefield Historic State Park. The parking was $3 in addition …
