I've lived in Grant County my entire life. The re-enactment of the Battle of Mississenewa during the War of 1812 between the Miami indians and the Americans has been a yearly event for my family. I grew up with 3 miles of the battlefield. We have gone down the river by canoe into the Battle re-enactment in past years. We drove/walked this year. Even being an "experienced" guest, I didn't know some of the history of the battle until this year. This year we talked about Indians in school for 2 weeks before the re-enactment weekend.
We listened to an Indian tell stories. He's a very good storyteller.
At least your storyteller is wearing clothes! :)
