The story of The Long Run Massacre unfolds as settlers leave Squire Boone’s Painted Stone Station and are attacked by Miami Indians. The re-enactment for the school children was a scaled down version of the re-enactment presented on Saturday and Sunday.

Getting photos taken with native re-enactors is always a big part of the day.
