Mt. Pisgah Battle Reenactment and Living History
Howard Buford Park: Eugene, Oregon
May 14-15, 2011
*New Event!*
This beautiful park sits at the base of Mt. Pisgah, where the land is all flat and the ground is full of lush green grass. This battlefield is the largest out of all the other parks the NWCWC is currently using, which means endless choices for battle scenarios!
Please see our Spectator's Guide to a battle reenactment!
Participants see the Reenactor and Sutler Information for details.
