Billie Creek Civil War Days

Visitors to Parke County Indiana were invited to be transported back in time to the 1860s during the annual Civil War Days at Billie Creek Village. One of the largest Civil War re-enactments in the state, participants were on hand to show visitors firearms, cooking and crafts from the time period. Saturday’s events were punctuated with an evening dance where participants were taught the Virginia Reel. The night ended with two cannon batteries exchanging volleys in the night sky.
