Open House this Weekend
The Fort St. Joseph Archaeological Open House starts tomorrow! The event will take place in Niles, Michigan at South Riverfront Park from 10am-4pm on Saturday and Sunday. The NWTA will have living history participants portraying life at Fort St. Joseph on the eve of Revolution. There will be merchants, a tea tent, canoe rides by Sarett Nature Center, Children's Games, and of course, the excavation site will be open to the public. This year archaeologists have been working to excavate two features in the hopes of finding the foundation of a building. We are excited for the event and hope you can join us!
