SUMMARY:Mounted Rangers Living History program
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, April 11\, and Saturday\, April 12\, visitors to Fort Gibson Historic Site can experience living history as reenactors portray Mounted Rangers at the historic military outpost. They will stay in the 19th-century palisade and offer demonstrations on various aspects of life as a Mounted Ranger during that period.\n\nThe weekend will provide numerous educational opportunities to learn more about their service at Fort Gibson in 1832. Mounted Rangers carried weapons and equipment during their assignments\, and this program will allow the public to discover how these items were made and maintained. Horses were essential for travel\, and the living history program will include lessons on horse care\, travel arrangements\, military camping\, and more.\n\nMounted Rangers were stationed at Fort Gibson from 1832 until they were replaced by the Dragoon Regiments in 1833. Led by figures such as Commander Henry Dodge and Captain Nathan Boone\, three companies were responsible for the security of frontier posts\, which included facilitating treaties and peace talks among the Nations\, escorting caravans\, and conducting expeditions.\n
