33RD FORT ROWDY GATHERING OVER LABOR DAY WEEKEND

  • Post category:NEWS

COVINGTON – The 33rd annual Fort Rowdy Gathering is scheduled for Saturday, August 30th starting at 10:00am through Monday, September 1st at the Covington Community Park.

The scheduled times are Saturday from 10:00am to 6:00pm, Sunday 10:00am to 6:00pm and Monday 10:00am to 3:00pm.

The depiction of a bustling, small trading village set in the late 1700s and early 1800s is what you step into when you enter the Covington Community Park.

Join us in the peaceful setting of yesteryear.

Falling leaves and the smell of open fires lure you to our “Gathering” and all the homemade foods, arts and crafts will have you wanting to linger there for the weekend festivities.

Authentic demonstrations, contests, games, and entertainment throughout the two-day “Gathering” add up to fun and enjoyment for the whole family.

Our 208′ long portable footbridge will carry you across the Stillwater River to the Mountainman Encampments and a true feeling of life of a by-gone era.
